Eircom BB speed Question

Little-Devil

I have Eircom and i am on a 1meg conenction ( so im told ).

I checked my Netopia router and noticed it says;
Speed: 544/128 (kbps).

My question is this speed correct or incorrect or should i ignore the Netopia and what it says?

Sponge Bob

nope, looks correct .

Little-Devil

OK thanks. I wasn't sure myself.

try unplugging stuff from line to see if a device ( sky box ? ) is interfering with it and also check all connections

then restart netopia and check stats , bet your db level right now is fairly high, possibly 60db or even 65db+

I have sky, but on phone line. The speed has been very slow all evening. I was just doing a couple of checks. The speed was downloading at one point of 25kps. I checked the on http://www.irishisptest.com it showed it. The speed has come back to normal in the last few minutes.

I didn't want to post another thread to see if anyone else was having problems with eircom speeds today.

unplug everything from the telephone wire, and make sure your cable is clear from power cables by at least 20cm.

Then restart your modem and check the sync speeds, and the line stats
