Oh. i kind of hoped for some reply. I have done everything possible with the analyzer and optimizer.
No ideas? Swap out the routers from "n" to "ac"?

The wireless speed remains 30.1 Mbps after increasing the provisioned speed from 25 Mbps to 150 Mbps, Comcast.

Can I expect only 30 Mbps with 802.11n? What could be throttling it?


Tested at speedtest.net firewall off
The wired speed through the router increased from 30.1 to 141 Mbps which is ...

I need to link the home network to a new home office.
1, Should I use a router or hub to expand for the office items?
2. which sequence is better?
- cable modem to Vonage VOIP box to router
- cable modem to router to Vonage VOIP box (perhaps the router is more reliable than the Vonage box)

Comcast drops the connection very regularly when I am downloading torrents or watching Hulu.com. It is not random, it is very regular when I look at a utorrent speed map. About every 20 minutes, very dependably

Anyone use surface mount raceways for low voltage data and video? Any suggestions or favorites?

I am looking to wire a floor of a house, and I do not want to deal with fishing wires though the walls. Yes, part of it is wireless, but nothing beats the speed and security of wired connections, and I ...

This is how wifi n works:
As soon as a g adapter connects the access point drops down to g mode for all adapters and stays in g mode until the g adapter(s) disconnect. I cannot operate in both g and n at the same time.


Is that true for all wireless n routers? I thought some had the ability to ...

But i cant because the cable modem is upstairs and my consoles are downstairs. so i need some way to increase the wireless connection for my consoles.

Drill a hole through the floors and fish a cat5 cable through it. It is not too big a deal. Wireless is convenient, but if you need the speed ...

Thank you, moving the wireless router was the answer. Wired was about 8 times faster than wireless. So I will run cat 5 to select locations and re-position the router

hardwired: 6500 to 8000 kbps

wireless and within 2 meters: about 4000 kbps

Oh.

The cable and cat5 is not coiled because it is cut to length. But the modem and router is near the house electrical panel and every single power cable. Tomorrow I'll move the cable modem and router and re-test.

How do you organize all the incoming and outgoing power and signals in your house? Do you use rack-mounts or shelving? Hook-and-loop fasteners stuck to the wall? Do you use a UPS for your routers and modems?

Our house has video cable, internet cable, POTS phone lines, and soon VOIP. We have modems ...

it is set to "obtain auto". It acquires the DSL modem address. It does not acquire the cable modem address.

We started on Comcast cable. We also installed DSL Verizon to compare them. Currently we have both services into the house. Problem is, once a computer has been set to connect to the DSL modem, it cannot acquire a network address from the cable modem.

Previously, I successfully set up internet ...

I did have 1 on cable and 1 on DSL for a few days until DSL was trustworthy. Now that both can connect to DSL, I have disconnected the cable modem.

Problem solved, thank you!

I used the TCP optimizer and improved the speed about 25 percent.
I applied your changes and the average speed increased about 10 percent more. :thumb:

I like your sig. Missed that milestone, too.

Verizon offers 768 kbps DSL at 15 $US. No other DSL supplier in our area, and their "FIOS" is not yet available. Comcast offers 1 mbps cable at 48 $US, also no other cable supplier in our area, western Massachusetts US, somewhat rural. The measured cable ...

Can DSL slower speed cause jagged edges on images?
Perhaps I have optimized the DSL speed so much, it is very lossy?

We are trying to switch from cable to DSL. Cable is $48 per month, monopoly in this area, and DSL is $15. I have chosen to keep the cable until we are certain we want to switch, so ...
