Infinity and PS3 slow speeds wired or wireless.

Hello, wondering if anyone can help ive tried connecting my ps3 with both wired and wireless connections and either never give me more than 5mb download speed or upload.
I have put the ps3 in the DMZ and even tried connecting using my pc as a proxy server. My PC which is connected by wired as well does actually get 76mb regularly.
I used to get at least 8mb with standard broadband.
Also my phone (xperia arc) gets about 18mb.
I have tried different times of day with just the ps3 connected and no difference. Im lucky to get 2mb on ps3 on most occasions.

Its far more likely that the PS3 is not capable of any faster speeds, after all, it s a games console with dedicated graphics chipsets, so the CPU may simply not run that fast.
The actual speed could be simply be restricted by the PS3 network interface, as 9Mbs would be quite fast enough for access to remote servers, whose speed is going to be only a fraction of that per user.

I have a BTHome Hub3 with infinity and used to use my TC wirelessly, I can't seem to get it to stay connected revert to my original back up

I have a BTHome Hub3 with infinity and used to use my TC wirelessly. Since I changed I cannot get my TC to stay connected, nor can I access the previously stored backups or files I had stored on it. I don't want to use an Earthnet cable. I can't get it to connect or stay connected to my MacMini either.

HELP ME PLEASE!!

Linksys E1500 slow linespeed wired or wireless

My linespeed drops to about half when I connect my Cable Modem to the E1500. Using the same port and cat cable the speedtest gives 19.6 mbs but after plugging into the E1500 using the same PC connected to the 10/100 port it drops to 8.6, wired or wireless. There is no reason for the speed to drop by half can anyone shed some light on how to fix?

Firmware is the latest version, will try a brand new cat cable. but would be odd as same cable was used to test between laptop and modem. I think the issue must be in the setup, but can't figure out what
Verify the internet speed in the modem and compare it with the router. Upgrade the firmware if needed or change MTU size.

BT Infinity and weird download speeds

Greetings!
This is the first time I've been with BT, I always had virgin media then when I moved out I was forced to go with Sky for my broadband which they could only manage 3-4mb. I've recently had BT infinity installed (3-4 weeks now) and I'm not sure what to make of it.
Although Sky's download speed was lower, I seemed to get more out of it. In the way of I can see on speedtest.net and speedtester.bt that my ping is low (15ms) and my speed is often between 30-35mb (funnily enough tonight it's sitting at 25mb) however p2p traffic is slow (yes I know it's throttled) but even over Internet explorer it's slow. If I was download a file, say a windows update or a patch for a game with sky I would get a constant 1-2mb download speed with bt it never goes over 200-300kb. Surely this can't be normal?
I may give BT a ring but due to work hours it'll most likely be on the weekend now. Just seems strange that everything points to a decent download speed but when it actually comes to downloading it's pretty slow.
Thanks in advance for any tips/help/suggestions.

Hi, Thanks for your reply. At present I have my laptop done over wireless using a b/g/n/ adapter. To be honest I have yet to try and connect my laptop directly to the router as this kinda defeats the point? I'm assuming you're thinking along the lines of I should get faster download speeds over a wired connection, which i agree with. But, surely 300kb is still low on a 40mb connection?
I'm in work at the moment so can't check out the test results. But will post them later.
Thanks,

WRT54G always reseting and very slow speeds.

I don't know whats going on, I have a WRT54G router thats completely up to date with the firmware and the such. I am connected to it via Ethernet cable, and only use the wireless part for my videogame stuff, so its not just the wireless network thats messing up, its the hardwired that is losing connection. Every half hour or so the router loses its connection and I'll either have to just wait for it to reconnect or have to power down the router (and sometimes the modem, or restarting the whole computer) and power it back up for it to be able to connect again. I have tried completely reseting the routers settings and uninstalling the EasyLink Advisor and reinstalling that and reconfiguring the router but its still doing this. When I am able to connect, my internet speeds are very slow. I am used to getting 200-300k/sec but now I am getting maybe 80k/sec when downloading. Is it possibly my router thats just messed up? thanks in advance(also, when i finished typing this my internet shut down again, and I had to restart the computer multiple times and now im just plugged into the modem so i get a stable connection..)

access the router's web interface and try changing the MTU size to 1400 / 1300 .. check whether this makes any difference..

Great speeds wired, poor wireless..

Good morning.
I had BT infinity installed earlier this week, absolutely delighted thus far with download speeds nearing 80mb via ethernet connection. However whenever I try using the wifi connection I'm only managing speeds ranging from 4mbs-20mbs.
I have read numerous posts regarding the adaptor needs upgrading/updating. I honestly have no idea about this and need abit of help in what I need to buy/do in order to achieve greater speeds wireless.
I have read something about a "N" adaptor. Is this like a usb stick which plugs into the laptop or do you need to take the whole laptop apart and remove the original adaptor? Where can I pick up one of these adaptors and finally how do I find my current adaptor type?
Sorry for all the questions, i'm absolutely usless with computers.
Thanks for your time
James

Its not usually practical to change the internal wireless card in your laptop, as there can be incompatibility issues, as it depends on the laptops motherboard manufacturer. There is also a chance of damaging the laptop.
An external USB adapter simply plugs int a spare USB port on the laptop, and you then select that adapter instead of the laptops internal one.
Here is the TP-Link TL-WN722N as an example.
There is also a very tiny Edimax EW-7811Un one, which I use myself, and looks like this
When it is plugged into a USB port, you hardly notice it.

Even our new modem connects to the internet only briefly and at slow speeds, if it connects at all

After nearly four years usually acceptable DSL service, our connection started getting too slow to email photos or steam anything, especially during peak hours. After several live chats and phone calls we got a new modem, and things are even worse, even after a marathon support call last night. After restarting the modem we sometimes get a few minutes of service, sometimes with download speeds in excess of 1.0 Mbps, but usually in between 0.20 and 0.40 Mbps. A few minutes after this, though, any device loses the internet; a few minutes later, the internet light on the modem goes dark. The DSL light stays solid throughout. But for the most part we're spending lots of time and money in exchange for a few minutes of slow DSL at a time. We've registered the new modem online, changed wireless channels, tried using an Ethernet cables, tried different jacks, disconnected the phone, cleaned browser caches. Modems just won't maintain an internet connection for more than a few minutes any more. What else can I try?

It seems your issue is most likely outside your home. have you tried connecting the modem to the NID and testing ? This will help isolate the issue. If the problems persists it may be an issue at the Central office. I would try to get a tech to your home ASAP and also contact Customer service & ask for a credit. When I had a similar issue a 24 hour monitor was implemented by upper level support.
Do you know how far you are from the CO you are; and how old the wirng from the CO to your home is? Good Luck!

WRT610N and PS3 - Slow audio and photo streaming, while video is fine

Hi, I just hooked up my USB portable hard drive to this Linksys router and was able to access the picture/audio/video on my PS3, it's very cool
However I quickly noticed is has couple of problems:
The access to JPG files is painfully slow, on average it would take about 20 to 30 seconds for the next photo to show up (the average size for a photo is about 2~3 MB).
The similar story would happen on MP3.
However the streaming of video is totally a different story, it's lighting fast! It would take about 2 to 5 seconds for the video to start to play, once it's started, there is no lag/interruption. The video I watched is a 600 x 400 .avi file at the size of 84MB, it plays very fluidly.
I found it's hard to believe that HD video actually runs much better than photo and MP3, it just doesn't make sense to me.
I also rebooted router/PS3 mutiple times, which didn't help at all.
Can anyone offer some hints on what could be wrong?
thanks ahead,
Hong

Slow speed with WRT54GS Wireless-G router

I have install a WRT54GS wireless router.
Since then my download speed on my pc (the one directly connect with the router) has come down from 4mb to 1mb.
If I connect the modem directly to the pc I get 4mb but when i connect the wireless router between them it goes down to 1mb.
I have call tech support, upgrade to version 1.52.0 but nothing change.
I have try it without a firewall and get the same result
One thing I have notice, when I do a tweak test at http://www.dslreports.com my RWIN without the router is 56000
If I connect the router is show 9800 even if my PC who as XP is set to 56000
Thanks

Check for latest firmware and upgrade if necessary. Then do a factory reset.

Modem keeps rebooting AND really slow speeds

Hey guys
I came onto this forum because for the past few weeks my homehub 2 has been increasingly rebooting randomly. It was a nuisance before when it happened occasionally, but in the past 5 hours (from about 10pm until about 3am)it has rebooted about 20 times! Extremely annoying when your trying to watch streaming video!!! Iv gone through lots of posts in this forum trying to do some research and have come to a few conclusions:
1. No point phoning bt
2. Will probably need a replacement modem
3. I have been experiencing absolutely dismal speeds without realising.
My dad set up our bt account but I believe it to be 2mb broadband (if its 8mb its even more shocking!) Whether it's day or night my download speed never ever reaches above 230k/s Iv tried downloading from microsoft, p2p, download etc. Sometimes I struggle to get 50k/s at peak times!!
This has been the norm since I moved here 4 months ago. I figured these speeds were normal because I know that you never do get the speed your supposed to but after reading on here I think now that these are FAR too low!! My exchange is only 1.6km by road from me (867m direct). My IP Profile will be affected by my homehub constantly rebooting but would it really make as much difference as this?? I will post my stats:

Id appreciate anyone to shed light on this, I'm not an expert! I know I will probably have to phone helpdesk.. But I know exactly what pointless things they will ask me and tell me to do and it will drag on and on.

Problems connecting and very slow speed

When trying to connect to my airport sometimes I've been getting an error message telling me that it can't connect. I have made no changes and moved nothign around. Also when it does finally connect it takes very long to load a page. As of right now I have just plugged an ethernet cable into my computer. Also my computer will no longer connect to the Airport automatically. Can someone please help?
Thank You
Tamara

Greetings Tamara Lyke,

Did anybody experience very slow speeds today?My internet was down for like 1-2 hours not so long ago and extremely slow speeds..it just went back up right now... am i the only one who experienced this?Oh and is there a system status page to see the network statuses?Thanks

To answer the last question, the network status page has been gone for ages. Best way to check at this point is phone or live chat with Verizon. The reps are always willing to check for outages if you ask nicely.
