  Hi Trace.

  OK, go to the link I sent you in a previous message, if you’ve misplaced it 
then I’ll look it up for you, however it was the troubleshooting page for the 
plusnet broadband service.  I think there is little more we on this list can do 
for you; its up to you and your ISP now.

  All the best, Ibrahim.

    Hi Trace.

    If your ISP is anyone other than BT, BT only provide them with the 
infrastructure, they don't provide support to end users.  Therefore you need to 
contact Plusnet to sort issues with speed and connection out.  Here is a page 
on their website with tools that might help, I suggest you try running these 
with and without cabling between your router and laptop to see where the 
problem might lie.  As for problems with wireless, it could just as easily be a 
Wi-Fi card that is at fault, can you connect using any Wi-Fi enabled device and 
do you get an internet connection on those devices?

    All the best, Ibrahim.

    hi

    and does the phone line show no fault? as bt are convinced the line is 
fine. my isp is plusnet.

    we've tried cables and it was better but that was when it wouldn't work at 
all on wireless!!

      Who is your ISP?  And is your broadband coming in via cable or telephone 
line?

       

      A neighbour of mine has had similar problems with Virgin (which I am also 
on at home) and the problem turned out to be at the connection box in the 
street nearby.

       

      Each time they have this problem, they have to virtually demand that the 
engineer goes and takes a look at this box.  Miraculously it gets fixed – until 
the next time.

      hiya guys

       

      for about six weeks now i've been having connection problems, we had an 
engineer out who managed to make the problem worse by leaving the filter off.

       

      now for the first time i've just caught the info down on the system tray 
tool bar telling me that the computer i guess it is is finding a connection, 
what on earth can be causing it to keep on dropping out, i assume that's what 
the finding connection means, its the computer finding a connection to the 
router, i'm having the same connection problems on my vaio as well as this 
netbook and mum's toshiba, we've tried a new router, new filter, we've given 
the computers static ip addresses and changed the channel on the router from 
auto to six and we're still having the same problem. the computers can see a 
talk talk wifi network which i assume is my neighbours, we did wonder if hers 
was messing up mine but its no different now the channel's changed. so i'm 
looking for ideas.  we are having a new phone socket fitted on friday as the 
one the router's in now which is the main one in to the house is broken, the 
slidey thing's missing from it.

       

      so i'm baffled so any ideas welcome
