Hi all. I've checked out the diognostics and everythign appears ok witht he router. However I've noticed the seed being transmitted is not what we shoudl have. It's only coming through at 448kb/s. think we're meant to be on 4 or 5mbp/s. Http requests are still sitting at abot 30kbp/s, and I've been advised bya friend to remove the filter box from the wall socket where the router/modem is plugging into. Is this right? he's from Canada and mmaybe their's is different? I can't understand this, restarted and rebooted the modem, rebooted machines, flushed dns and nothing... Any clues? grins Dj paddy Ôà ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dj Paddy" <mygroups@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, May 11, 2007 7:17 PM Subject: DSL woes > Hi guys, > > When it comes to networking with DSL I'm a complete novice. > > I believe I've mucked things up at home here.
