    in working order?

    After getting a SECOND Zyxel router from Eircom, still having the same problem with the connection dropping. :mad::mad:

    The Netopia one i borrowed works perfectly, not one drop in 2 weeks, but i have to give it back to my mum now. :(:(
    And Eircom apparently cant find/wont look/cant be arsed sending me a Netopia one, all they send out are these crappy Zyxel ones now!:mad::mad:

    So, anyone got one they can sell?

    A 2247 please.

    Cherrycola,

    To stop the disconnects on the ZyXel, can you try the following:

    http://192.168.1.254 - broadband1 is the password.

    From the Modem page, Select 'Network', 'NAT' and in the
    'Max NAT/Firewall Session Per User' increase this value to say 2048 and Apply/Save - Let me know if this resolves the disconnects - It worked for me!!
