    I have a zyxel router but it keeps dropping the connection to my Seagate GoFlex attached storage, how difficult would be for me to connect to the service if I was to buy a new router and if I had to buy a new router is there a certain functions and features that I would need on it?

    If you're not an eFibre customer, and you have the black Zyxel, Eircom have replaced this with a new model, that, in my experience, works well. They replaced mine FoC, so a call to them might be in order.

    Hi s_macmahon

    What model Zyxel do you have at the moment.

    Thanks, Mark

    P-660HW-T1 V3 is the model number on the bottom of the modem.

    Yeah, that's the ****ty black one. The difference between that and the new one is like day and night. The new one has none of the DSL instability, and none of the wifi issues. I am looking at 60+ days with no issues, which is the longest time I have gone without a reboot since April 2011.

    Hi s_macmahon

    Thanks for getting back. I just wanted to make sure you were using the older Zyxel modem that eircom provided.

    If you call broadband technical support on 1890 260 260 (with the eircom account number) They can arrange to replacement Zyxel D100 (no charge).

    Thanks, Mark
