    hi,

    right does anyone know what settings 2 change on the new zyxel p-660hw-t1 v3 from eircom new upgrade package 24mb (its 20122 kbps /765 kbps on the router!) they done a line test and said i would be able to recieve 24mb but thats another story. it was on 17mb so i rang them , again and they changed it.

    so my prob is the most i can get on wireless is 5mb but when i have it plugged into the lan i get around 15mb. i have 3 laptops hooked up so its 5mb between them. i dont see any settings on my network card to make sure its on full duplex on the 3 laptops. there must be a setting somewhere on router. eircom have not got a clue and can't help. i have updated all the wireless cards and tried to update the firmware on router but it fails. anyone out there have an idea?

    also it was lossing packets bigtime but i sussed that bit out in the nat settings by changing it to 1024 from 512. no packet loss now. any help would be very much appreciated because i'm fed up. it's going on 2 months now.

    tnx boards ;-)

    Wireless connections to your router are none of eircon's business they have nothing to do with it.

    maybe so but the default setting on the new router was having serious packet loss so that is there problem. i fixed that myself. there shipping them out like that. the tech support over on there forum are so slow at replying to anything. i have hp,sony & ibm laptops here. theres no setting on network cards to change the speed. its a nmare. i was hoping it was just a setting i could change on router

    Pop over to Wireless and Dub_45 will walk you through the steps to troubleshoot your network, your packet loss is prob due to network congestion in the Wifi spectrum, are you in a built up area?

    take that zyxel piece of ****e and bin it tbh, the old silver modem is much better and capable of the same speeds, i switch back after about a week of the thing needing constant reboots and performing poorly

    so now it gone from:

    20122 kbps /765 kbps
    19267 kbps /765 kbps
    18369 kbps /765 kbps
    when i done hard reset a couple of times (which i lost all my port forwarding again)
    it's a nmare.

    WTF?

    Gona get a loan of another router & see what the story is. it's still only giving me 5ish mb shared wireless and 15ismb when plugged into the lan.
