Extremely Slow Internet From Linksys WRTU54G-TM

Hi all,
I'm hoping someone can help me with this issue. I got the Linksys WRTU54G-TM for T-Mobile's @home service. According to the store employees, I should be able to just plug it in and it should work. I got it home, disconnected my old router (a Linksys WRT54G) and plugged it in. After a few minutes, the phone was up and working and sounds good; however, the internet coming off of the router is extremely slow (both wired and wirelessly). So slow that pages won't load. The title bar will tell you where you're trying to go; however the page will not load.
Before calling for help, I contacted my internet provider (Cox Cable in Phoenix) and verified that the network was working and that my modem (Terayon brand) was good. When I hook the modem directly to the computer I get my full connection (around 20 megs down). Then I called T-Mobile and was connected to Linksys since the router was connecting and providing phone service.
I spent an hour on the phone with Linksys. We flashed the firmware to the latest build, reset the modem to factory settings, reset the modem via the button on the back all the while power cycling the whole setup numerous times. The rep had me check some settings on my computer and I was able to ping from the cmd prompt. In the end, she felt that I received a bad router and said I should return it. She never mentioned cloning the MAC address; however, I saw that on the T-Mobile forums and tried it - no luck.
I took the router back to the T-Mobile store and the rep happily exchanged my router for a new one. I got it home, plugged it in and have the same problem. Phone works, internet doesn't pass through the router properly.
I went ahead and flashed the new router and reset it factory settings and that did not help (all the things I did with the Linksys rep with the first router). I'm going to be calling T-Mobile/Linksys again tomorrow but I wanted to see if there was anything anyone in these forums may know what I could try.
With the second router, I did try plugging it into my old router (modem - old router - new router), the phone worked and the internet worked (both wired and wireless); however, the internet is not as quick as going through one router and I do not want to have two routers set up.
Secondly, I looked at the configuration of my old one and set the new one to the same exact settings; however, one setting could not be matched. My old router is set to an operating mode of GATEWAY, the new one is set as ROUTER. The only options on the new one are router and bridge. Could this be the issue?
It was recommend on the T-Mobile forums to run a speed test and post the results, which I can do tonight after I get home from work. 
I've searched these forums, Google, the T-Mobile forums, the Cox forums at dslreports.com, and tons of other places and cannot find an answer. Based on the size of Cox, it's hard to believe I'm the only one with this issue. Any help would be appreciated. I have until Sunday to return the router and cancel the service without any termination fees.

Try the following settings on the router...
Change the Wireless Channel to 11-2.462GHz under Wireless tab...Under Advance Wireless Settings,Change the Beacon Interval to 75,Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304, Change the RTS Threshold to 2304.Under Security tab,uncheck the option "Block Anonymous Internet Requests "...Power Cycle the router and check..

  • Windows 7 Ultimate (64-Bit) fresh install, only WLAN and video driver installed but EXTREMELY slow internet connection...

    I recently checked my internet connection on my Asus G53SW and found that it was extremely slow on both the LAN and WLAN connections. I checked with a different laptop (old HP Pavilion) and I get a steady 74mbps+ connection using the same LAN cable and
    also with the WLAN connection. My ISP has checked their side and everything is fine.
    To try and resolve the issue I tried uninstalling, disabling and tweaking various software and even tried safe mode with networking, all to no avail. I then decided to do a complete fresh install this afternoon. I have installed Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit)
    successfully onto my SSD and everything went smoothly. I have now only installed Nvidia video drivers and the (only) WLAN driver from the Asus support site.
    My WLAN connection remains incredibly slow (amost half what it is on the HP and my MacBook Pro). Clearly this is an issue with either the Asus laptop or Windows but I don't know how to proceed in order to eliminate which it could be other than to try a different
    o/s to W7-Ult.
    Can anyone help who knows more about this than me? Perhaps someone who has had a similar or the same problem because this is giving me a severe headache!
    Thanks in advance to all and for any advice.

    Thank you for responding. As I stated in my original post the reason I went through this process was because of an extremely slow internet connection from both the WLAN and LAN connections on my G53SW. At that time I had all of the correct drivers on the
    machine. Whilst I would agree that with the machine only having a video and WLAN driver it may well not be working 'optimally', the rationale for doing this was to get the machine working with the minimum of processes to show that it was not anti-virsu software,
    Steam or the like causing interference.
    I have changed out both of the HDDs this evening (a primary SSD and a secondary 1Tb HDD) for a clean hybrid 1Tb Seagate drive. Once I have installed all of the Asus drivers (and nothing else) I will try the speed test again and report back.
    I can now report that with a fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 and ONLY Asus drivers as supplied the issue remains. On a connection where I should see around 75mbps I am actually getting around 18mbps, sometimes considerably slower. This only affects
    my Asus machine.

  • Extremely slow download from Itunes store when on NAS

    Hi All,
         Since the latest Itunes update 10.6 I've been experiencing extremely slow download from the store. Set up is as follows (with all the latest firmware and software upgrades done on everything)
         ITunes DB and XML locally stored on HDD
         Itunes Media Folder stored on NAS DNS-323
         DNS 323 NAS hardwired to network by 1000 Gb LAN Connection
         Cabled Internet connection at 60Mbps
    There is no issue running Itunes from the NAS to MAC / APPLETV and other devices across the network wirelessly or hardwired, except when downloading purchases from the ITunes Store. One HD tv show takes 4 hours to download and averages 1Mbps speed.
         After running some test with various configuration it seems that the fact that the Downloads folder located within the ITunes Media folder (now stored on the NAS) is causing the poor download speed. When the Download folder is local on a HDD  it's got no problem reaching 60Mbps.
         Unfortunately there is no way to tell ITunes to keep the Downloads folder local and the ITunes Media folder on NAS, it always stays within the Itunes Media folder no matter where this folder is located.
         Permitting Itunes to keep the Downloads folder locally while downloading files and transferring the files to the ITunes Media folder (wherever it's located) once it's fully downloaded might be the simple solution to this common problem.
         How about testing this out Apple!

    I have some information to add to this.  I've been seeing these problems for quite some time since I started downloading in HD.  My library is rather large so I too decided to use another drive.  My case is different though I have and extra 2 TB internal drive and my media folder is on it.  This rules out all Wifi, network, or USB bottlenecks as a cause of the problem.  I have noted a few oddities about this behavior and I will mention them here although I am not sure what they mean.
    1.  If I set up a long list of downloads it seems to crawl on all downloads.  If I kill the "apple push" process the top two seem to speed up.  I have to maintain the list and only enable two downloads at a time to get anywhere near reasonble speeds but this method is great for one or two downloads at a time.
    2.  I was curious about this problem after watching it download for hours on a 24MBPS connection for just a few shows.  When I did yet another search I finally found this thread so I thought checking something out might be interesting.  I set up some HD movies to download on my secondary system that only has one hard drive.  Although not at full speed they began downloading much faster.  Three movies are all downloading on the single drive system faster than the one alone on the system with the Itunes media folder on a different drive.
    Both systems are hard wired to the internet. 
    Finding this thread made me very curious I was wondering if there would be a performance boost if I uninstalled Itunes, and re-installed it on the media drive.  I really wanted that drive to be storage only but it makes me wonder if it would give different results or the same problem from not being on the OS drive.
    Both systems are running Windows 7, and both are able to download streaming content, large files, or movies from other sites relatively instantly.

  • Anyone experiencing extremely slow downloads from Apple?

    For the past 48hrs or so I've been unable to stream or download HD Video from iTunes store or iCloud on any of my devices, Apple TV's or Computers.
    Netflix, Amazon Prime, and other HD Streaming services unaffected.  Internet up and running 45Mbps connection, working great. only thing affected is content from Apple, specifically content purchased and on iCloud.  iCloud account fine, Apple ID account fine.  Can access Apple.com, iTunes Store, Apple Store, Communities, and content, however, streaming, downloads extremely slow, almost unresponsive....
    Is anyone aware of any slowdown issues, servers down, or other issues affecting access to content?
    You know because Apple is always so forthcoming on these issues!
    So far Ive found no mention of any issues in any of the communities....
    Thank You.

    Apparently Adobe is having server problems. Other users have reported problems today.

  • Time Capsule slow internet with Linksys router

    I has issues with slow internet page loads. I have a Linksys WAG325N router connect to Telstra ADSL 2 with a Time Capsule. I use two wireless network one broadcasted from Linksys and the other wireless network from the Time Capsule. When i'm connected to the time capsule i had slow internet page loads and the Time Machine backups fail.
    When connected to the wireless network from the Time Capsule i get 10% to 30% packet loss when i pinged the Linksys router and 0% packet loss when i pinged the Time Capsule.
    I then connected to the Linksys router then i has packet loss with i pinged the Time Capsule and 0% loss when i pinged the Linksys.
    I used the Airport Utility and changed the "Ethernet WAN Port" from automatic to "10 Mbps/Full Duplex".
    This seem to fix the problem. I think there is some issue with the port speed negotiation between the Linksys and Time Capsule.
    Time Capsule 7.4.2
    LinkSys V1.00.13(01)

    The same thing is happening to me, exactly. Although my top speed is lower than yours (I'm on FiOS). Unplug it for a second, and you're back to normal. Otherwise, it will slowly and inexorably degrade until you have something worse than dial-up.
    This is completely unacceptable, and it's far too typical of the current state of Apple's quality control and support that there is no official acknowledgment of this screamingly obvious and annoying problem, which happens every single time I use my Time Capsule, which is to say every day, and no recommended fix.
    Sometimes I feel as if I could really hate this company!

  • Extremely slow internet using wifi.

    Hi guys,
    First post here so be gentle.
    After a week or so of using Arch I started noticing some strange things happening so far:
    - Pacman's package list downloading from the repos happens at regular speed (around 700Kb/s), then followed by a 30 secs lag between each package download, which starts at normal speed, but then come down to around 2Kb/s then I get an Address Record error, which terminates the download.
    - first ping to google is fine, then any ping after either get a 'host unknown' error or ping takes around 9Kms.
    - another strange behavior that happens when pinging is that the wireless connection start at a bit-rate of 1Mb/s (according to iwconfig), then every time I ping google the bit-rate jumps (1Mb/s -> 12Mb/s -> 24Mb/s -> 54Mb/s -> 81Mb/s).
    - can't load any websites (google takes around 5min to load, most other sites I just get a timed out error)
    So my config is as follows:
    - Intel Centerino Ultimate-N 6300
    - connected using NetworkManager (but while connected with wicd the problem still occurs).
    - running gnome 3.
    - the router is Edimax 6524n
    So far, I've checked resovle.conf (which only states my router ip address, which is fine because it serves as my DNS server), my hosts file (which is configured according to the tutorial in ArchWiki) and I've disabled the ipv6 module.
    I've asked in several forums so far but with not much success, so i'm really hoping someone can solve it for me.
    Thanks in advance!
    PS: in one of the forums i asked someone asked me to post the output of dmesg | grep -i iwlagn, so here it is:
    pastebin.com/Pmhi6swv
    PS2: This problem does not occur in any of the Windows machines that are connected to the wireless network nor does it happen when this exact machine runs Windows; so the problem is definitely in Linux

    I'm kind of having a similar problem. Ever since upgrading to 2.6.39 my wifi is extremely slow. It connects in g mode according to iwconfig and other network analyzing programs. I have iwl3945. The problem is. First it connects to wifi network(which takes about 30secs to successfully complete a connection request) it works great and I'm measuring 25Mbit(which is my internet connection speed) on speedtest.net. But after some minutes my speed drops to around 100KB/s and has a slight fluctuation, not quite constant. Even the upload is bigger than the download speed. If I disconnect the wifi, reload the kernel module and reconnect, then it works again for 1-2 minutes at full speed, then the speed drops again.

    Any suggestions, or ideas would be very helpful. Thank you.

  • Extremely slow Internet over Airport, good speed with Ethernet

    I've been using an airport extreme router (802.11n) for a while and recently I've noticed an incredible slow Internet over wifi. When I do a speed test it shows numbers like 200 kbps and I have a 10 mbps cable Internet connection. When I connect the ethernet from the modem it's perfect speed. Obviously Airport is slowing down my Internet connection. I tried resetting the Airport by pressing the reset button at the back, and it worked perfectly for a while. But after a few days it got back to slow Internet. Anybody have any idea?

    I don't know if this will help anyone else, but I came across some changes (purely by experimentation) that may help. I hope so, at least...
    I opened the Airport Utility and I swapped channels. The default is channel 6, but every other WiFi router defaults to this channel, too. I changed my Airport Extreme to use channel 3 (as well as my Airport Express), and now things are back to what I would have expected for an 802.11g connection.
    I will offer the suggestion that those of you with the same Internet slow-down observed on their iMac G5's try swapping channels. If you have an expanded WiFi home network vis-a-vis an Airport Express, be sure to update it first before you update your Airport Extreme.
    Best wishes and good luck!

  • Extremely slow internet (WRT150N)

    Hi. I just recently purchased a WRT150N Wireless Router for my household and a WMP300N Wireless Network Controller. Both are 802.11n compatible from my understanding. The other 2 computers in my household are both on G ethernet cards, which most likely will not be upgraded soon. As such the Router is set for a Mixed network.
    However, the problem lies in the fact that I am, for some odd reason, the only one with extremely slow throughput speeds. Several speed testing sites have put my download throughput at an amount no higher than 1300 Kbits/s (Sometimes as low as 800 Kbits/s) and this is more or less confirmed by actual download speeds on files no faster than ~100-150 KBytes/sec.
    I have the router set on Wide (40 MHz) Radio Band w/ Wide Channel set as 6 and Standard Channel set as 8.
    Network SSID was already changed from default "linksys" to something unique to our household.
    Beacon Interval: 50
    DTIM Interval: 2
    Fragmentation Threshold: 2306
    RTS Threshold: 2307
    Beyond those slight tweaks I have no clue what could be wrong. I don't even know if it's a problem with the Router or my Network Controller. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Extremely slow internet in vista ultimate

    been having this problem since i installed windows vista ultimate. i had xp before on my imac 20" 2.4ghz and it worked fine. but since i installed the vista ultimate the internet is extremely slow and it would take an hour to open a webpage, if im lucky.
    so far the only solution i have now is to restart the router everytime i switch from osx to vista ultimate. sometimes the internet is so slow i can't even access the router webpage (192.168.0.1). but in the meantime i can access it with my ipod touch no problem.
    is anyone else having the same problem?
    hope to get some response.
    thanks a lot!

    I encountered very slow network performance with Vista and bootcamp and this is what I found.
    I have a DLINK DIR-655 router which I upgraded the firware to 1.10 (which supports 802.11n and some other enhancements). I did this for it seems that Vista was handing my DLINK Router. This router seems to work great on my iMac running Leopard in 802.11n mode.
    Next I noted that the Microsoft Broadcom 802.11n wireless driver was being loaded in Vista/Bootcamp. I believe during some of the Windows Update that the older Broadcom driver was loaded.
    I reloaded the driver located on the Leopard Install DVD and in the "Drivers" folder and installed the "BroadcomInstaller". This installed the Broadcom driver ver 4.8.75.0 date 1/8/07.
    Then in the Driver properties in the Advanced Settings, I did the following
    IBSS Mode set to "802.11a/b/g/n Auto"
    Rate (802.11b/g) set to "54" vs "Use Best Rate"
    This did not set my network to 802.11n but my network performance went from dismal to excellent. I tried playing with the Rate settings but it appeared that the IBSS mode did the trick. Now I can not wait until I can get 802.11n working.
    Hope this helps

  • Extremely slow internet conection.

    Alright. I returned from holiday yesterday and found that the internet was extremely slow.
    In an attempt to correct the problem I have tried a whole host of things, including speaking to a bt technical engineer via online live chat as well as consulting someone on the phone.
    Nothing has worked.
    After speaking with my dad who was home, he told me that it has been like this for a week now and he had resetted the routuer once in an attempt to fix the problem. Personally I have reset the router maybe about 5 times today, including trying two other routers, and the problem remains. I've only recently learnt (by reading through these forum pages) that resetting the router is probably the worse thing you can do. That being said, the problem arose before the resets and not after.
    After doing a speed test this is the result.
    I've read something about waiting 3/5 days for the profile to automatically get up to speed, but that is simply unacceptable. Is there no way for bt to reset the profile at their end?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    your profile has dropped due to problems with your connection.  It may have had numerous resets by the hub itself while you were away and unless the stats are checked on a regular basis you would probably never know it had happened.  however then you started to try and get the speed back by resetting the router and changing for another and each time causing another reset. 
    this was seen by the exchange as a connection problem and the result was that your noise margin gets increased and you speed drops as the exchange tries to stabilise your connection.  the profile ends up set by the lowest speed during all these resets.
    before the profile rises to match your new speed the exchange equipment waits 3/5 days to make sure your line is stable otherwise if your profile rose and there was still a problem it would drop almost immediately.

  • Airport Extreme Slowing Internet Connection

    Hope someone can provide some direction for me!
    A few weeks ago I started noticing slowed internet speeds,but thought nothing of it, and attributed the slow down to peak periods. About a week ago was the first time I ran a speed test due to a noticeable depreciation in connection speed. Then, and still today, I’m averaging about 3.4 mbps down / 6 mbps up both wireless and wired with Ethernet cable through the airport extreme. I have Comcast Blast which, until the slowdown, was averaging 20 mbps down / 6 mbps up.
    My setup:
    Macbook (mid-2010), OS X 10.7
    Mac mini (early-2009), OS X 10.7
    Motorola SB5100 Modem
    Airport Extreme 802.11n (3rd Generation)
    Here’s the kicker: when my macbook is directly connected tothe modem (removing the airport extreme), I get amazingly fast internet (26mbps down / 6 mbps up).
    I’ve been browsing around here looking for solutions since my warranty’s expired and have tried the following:
    thanks to this previous discussion
    -Changed Frequency Channel to less populated channels
    -Changed Fireware Versions (was 7.5.2, tried 7.4.2, 7.4.1,and 7.4)
    -Moved the router’s location
    -Moved the
    -Reset the modem
    -Reset the Airport Extreme
    -Factory reset the Airport Extreme
    -Made sure “Ethernet WAN Port” was set to “Automatic(Default)”
    -Changed/Temporarily Removed Security
    Some users have found success (as discussed in the discussion linked above) by swapping out their cable modem. I own mine, so it would be a matter of purchasing a new one (though I'd rather not buy a new one if it's actually my Airport that's failing)
    Could my Airport Extreme be dying and it’s time for a new one?
    Any suggestions or thoughts of things to try?
    Thanks, Everybody!

    Well, I'll see if you can explain this one:
    As suggested, I used Airport Utility to switch the Radio Mode from "Automatic" to "802.11a/n - 802b/g." I was unable to find the option to select "802.11n (5) only - 802.11n only (2.4)."
    I ran the test again with the following results:
         Client Side: [  4]  0.0-60.0 sec  497408 KBytes  67909 Kbits/sec
         Server Side: 0.0-59.7 sec  497408 KBytes  68253 Kbits/sec
    No Change.
    I then discovered that under "Wireless Network Options..." my checked "5GHz Network" had become unchecked. I re-checked this box and connected both server and client computers to this new network and re-ran the test:
         Client: [  4]  0.0-60.1 sec  392192 KBytes  53496 Kbits/sec
         Server: 0.0-60.1 sec 392192 KBytes  53476 Kbits/sec
    Seemingly slower.
    HOWEVER, now when I run an internet speed test, I'm consistently getting ~28mbps down/~6mbps up across all devices (mac mini, macbook).  I'm sort of unclear as to what's causing this change, but it appears, at least for the time being, that the issue has resolved.
    Should I be concerned that the AEBSn is not transfering data near the 300 Mbps on the 5GHz channel? What else could be playing into this issue?

    Good day,
    I'd like to confirm a few things:
    What action/activity are you performing in Acrobat when it crashes?
    Is the crash consistent at the same point?
    You stated in the subject '..after upgrading to 10.6.7'
    What OS was on your iMac when you purchased it?
    Was this problem occuring when using an earlier verion of 10.6.x?
    Have you applied to font update Apple released to address some of the problems they introduced with 10.6.7?
    Did you perform a clean install of Acrobat on your iMac after you purchased it or was the application transferred in some way?
    I hope we can get this resolved for you!

  • [SOLVED] Extremely slow internet

    Hello.
    I'm having a problem with really slow internet on Arch, but it's working really fast and smooth on Windows. This started to happen once i moved my old HDD to a new built computer, so i wouldn't have to reformat etc. (Now i have reformatted and also tried Debian, same thing there and now)
    Any ideas?
    rc.conf
    # /etc/rc.conf - Main Configuration for Arch Linux

    # LOCALE: available languages can be listed with the 'locale -a' command

    And that. You need to investigate these. Hopefully it's just one bug.

  • MacBook Pro Running EXTREMELY Slow (Information from EtreCheck attached). HELP!

    Problem description:
    I am having issues with my mac becoming extremely SLOW. I upgraded the RAM (Doubled it up) and it was working well for a while, but it’s now back to being extremely slow. I noticed the change when I upgraded to Mavericks. I’m still running Mavericks and haven’t upgraded to Yosemite yet.
    What could be causing this to happen? SO slow and keep in mind I'm usually always multi-tasking when operating my laptop.
    If you can offer any suggestions then please let me know!
    Thanks in advance,
    Mike

    Your startup disk has no free space!

    You need to spend some time removing files you no longer need. I'd suggest you reboot & connect an external HD, then slowy start copying files off this Mac. You need to take care because the Mac can run out of memory & put you into a 'must reboot now' situation, don't forget to delete files once they are copied off the system. Reboot to keep the memory usage to a minimum.
    You need at least 20GB free at all times to allow the Mac some breathing room for temporary files & virtual memory storage. More free space is better, especially on spinning disks.
    There are many tips on this site for removing old files & finding large files or folders
    http://pondini.org/OSX/DiskSpace.html (and search this site).
    These two can also help to find large files & folders.
    http://grandperspectiv.sourceforge.net/
    http://whatsizemac.com/
    See Király's post for a way to make these apps search all folders (by default it will be limited by your permissions).
    drive space not adding up - deleted user?
    Don't forget that certain apps have their own 'trash' so open iPhoto, iMovie or any other app that has it's own trash & check the built in trash is empty, otherwise the items in the trash will be taking up disk space.
    I'd also consider removing any of the system modifications you do not use, like Blackberry's software, Citrix, Toast's extensions. Otherwise check that the installed versions are up to date & compatible with the OS. http://roaringapps.com can indicate if other users are happy with these apps on your OS.
