Lan Internet SPEED control

Hi Guys,
I would like to know how do i control the number of speed for other users of the internet., as much as i hate to say that it's all being paid by me alone, however im in a different country for the moment to which i needed to subscibre internet connection but didnt want to limit it to myself knowing others may think of me being so greedy when its just internet.. lol..
I applied for 3MBPS Internet speed but to my surprise after giving out the PW to 5 people who lives the same place as mine even SKYPE is freakin LAG when they're all here..
Thank u

Did you try creating a new location and deleting the old one? Just renewing the DCHP on its own may not be enough. Follow all the instructions here, first:

Slow internet speed due to Marvell Yukon LAN driver

Hello all!
I am a newbie here so not sure if I am supposed to ask this question here but anyway hope my problem gets solved somehow.
I am using Toshiba Satellite A200 Notebook, I got this last week and everything works fine except for my internet speed, its too slow. I am on a 10Mb/s plan but my speed is no where close to that. I am getting speeds near 200kb/s to 300kb/s max. After a lot of googleing I came to know that the Marvell Yukon LAN driver is the problem here.
According to some websites, we are supposed to roll back the driver to a previous version, I did this but still the speed does not want to increase. I have tried almost all the things I can do but getting nowhere so far. I have called my ISP, they say everything is looking good on their side, ran Norton Antivruis scan on this machine, disabled firewall, and the list goes on but nothing.
It would be great if anyone could help me out here.
Thanks in advance...

Hi,
did you checked your connection with another computer, if the problem still exists with another machine??
Would be really interesting...otherwise I suggest you to recover your machine to "factory-default". Maybe it solves something.
Another idea would be to remove the "Qos" (Quality of service)service from your network connection which virtually slows down the connection due to software reasons.
Please give some feedback and please tell me which system youre using (Vista, XP)
Thx
bye

My internet speed suddenly went VERY slow on all browser

I am running on a Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5, 2 Ghz Intel i7, 4GB Ram DDR3.
I am experiencing very slow internet speed after some system update some time ago.
I have tried using wireless and LAN cable but both results the same.
I've tried resetting routers in both my office and home but it is still as disappointing.
Kindly advice on what to do? I've forgotten which update is it as it is some time ago already.
I have installed bootcamp in my macbook and tried the using from windows but there isn't such issue. The internet was smooth and great.

Try these basic troubleshooting steps.
1. Quit all app scompletely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
2. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
3. Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

Poor internet speed with time capsule or Airport extreme

I'm trying to find away to increase the throughput of my 1st generation tme capsule. i'm getting a 33% drop in speed over wireless compared to wired conncetions.
current setup
Virginmedia XXL broadband 100Mbit down 5Mbit up.
Modem standard virginmedia modem (not the superhub) connected to Apple time capsule (500Mb) @ 1000Mbit full duplex
time capsule reset to default and then configured to use 5Ghz band, channel 36 . (no other networks in the area using this band) tested using wifi scanner and istumbler
tested down/up speed using www.vmspeed.com
wired connection
105Mb/sec download 4.9Mb/sec upload
wireless connection
73.14Mb/sec download 4.7Mb/sec upload
i have tried testing with an airport extreme 3rd Gen with the same setup and get the same results.
Tested using a 2008 Macbook running Lion 10.7.3 and also tested using 2010 Macbook unibody running snow leopard 10.6.8. both laptops connecting to wireless network at 270Mb/sec and are both exhibiting the same drop in speed over wireless. only one laptop connected to the network at a time.
is thier a limit to the time capsule/airport extreme wireless throughput?

Further to Bob's comments..
A Gen1 TC will be using marvel wireless chip and your 2008 and 2010 Macbook will use atheros and/or broadcom cards.. Just open your system profiler and look for info on the airport. We find the mixture of wireless chipsets especially older draft N and later N products can give very varied results.
The very fact you are linking at 270 and not 300mbps shows some reduction from theoretical max speed.. and really to get over 100mbps with any wireless you need perfect setup.. matched wireless chips etc.
Do a test uploading and downloading a file to the TC to see if the LAN speed is better than internet speed.
In reality I think you are doing especially well.. we see loads of people complaining about slow internet here who are getting less than 10% of the speed they get direct when routed through the TC. And on most occasions the limit in speed is not really going to affect what you do, as the real links to the internet are not that fast.

Airport Extreme (time capsule model) internet speed EXTREMELY slow.

Hello, first thank you for any help on this as it is a bit frustrating for me.
I recently noticed my internet speed was running significantly slower on both my MacBook Pro and on my wifes MacBook.
I had my ISP come and check out the problem. They hooked my MacBook Pro directly to the modem and my speed went from under 1 mb to over 5mb.... he then had me hook up directly to the lan port on the airport extreme and my speed was once again back down to the 1 mb range. He concluded that it must be a problem with the speed once it hits the Airport Extreme.
He ended up giving me a different modem, its a 2wire wireless. I have since connected my airport extreme to the new modem and am still pulling down the same speed, but now I have connected directly to the new 2wire wireless modem and am getting my 5 mb speed.
Can anyone give me any help or advice on what I can do with my airport extreme time capsule so that I can get the speed I should be getting from it.
Thanks again.

More information. I have a separate router for ISP connect/DHCP. I only use my Airports to create a WDS and bridge onto my home network. I have never allowed 2.4GHz or 5GHz phones in the house, just to limit interference. I live way out in the country so interference from neighbors is negligible to nonexistent. Speed testing done with Speakeasy.net/speedtest
I moved all the hard wired machines from the TC to my switch. Which will impact the speed of my backups, but it helped with internet throughput for those machines.
Then I split my WiFi into 2 separate nets, each with a connection to my home network switch. I created a b/g network with my ufo Extreme and my Express (NET 1). I left my TC set for n/b/g (NET 2). As long as my MacBook was powered off internet speed were nice and fast. As soon as I turned on my MB the speeds were impacted, not as bad as before.
I then changed NET 2 to be n-only 5GHz and retested. These was a small but noticeable impact for wireless machines but I have concerns because my ISP is wireless and runs at or near 5GHz.
I then changed NET 2 to be n-only 2.4Ghz and retested. Again a small impact for wireless machines whenever my MB was connected to NET 2.
I then had my MB join NET 1 and speeds were nice and fast all around. My solution, shutdown the wireless on my TC and use it as just a network drive while I use my old reliable b/g hardware for WiFi.
Maybe someday this Draft version of 802.11n will be finalized and have no issues.

My kids have figured a workaround for the internet access control

I was quite happy with Network Magic until my kids rendered it fairly ineffective by a simple workaround. The internet access control seems to be tied into each PC's clock. So, my kids simply change the time on the computer and ... Voila! Internet access whenever the parents aren't around. I was kind of hoping the internet access schedule would be linked to the time on the router. I'm hoping this can be fixed.

Hi, set your kids user accounts to not be admins, and set the BIOS password, this will migate that workaround.
My Cisco Network Magic Configuration:
Router: D-Link WBR-2310 A1 FW:1.04, connected to Comcast High Speed Internet
Desktop, iMac: NM is on the Windows Partition, using Boot camp to access Windows, Windows 7 Pro 32-bit RTM, Broadcom Wireless N Card, McAfee Personal Firewall 2009,
Mac Partition of the iMac is using Mac OS X 10.6.1 Snow Leopard
Laptop: Windows XP Pro SP3, Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG, McAfee Personal Firewall 2008
Please note that though I am a beta tester for Network Magic, I am not a employee of Linksys/Cisco and am volunteering my time here to help other NM users.

10.4.9 and internet speed

I am being told by my internet provider (charter) that they are getting many calls about poor internet speed w/ mac users after the 10.4.9 upgrade. my internet speed are really back after the upgrade. has anyone heard of this and if so how to fix it?

A few things to try, with no guarantees:
* Visit sites such as http://www.macfixit.com and http://www.macintouch.com to see if others have reported the problem and/or workarounds/fixes.
* Run Disk Utility and "fix permissions", and "verify disk".
* Run Activity Monitor and see if any obvious culprits are shown - CPU utilization way too high, constant disk activity, constant paging, unexplained network activity (or lack of it), etc.
* Download and install the "combo" 10.4.9 updater.
* If you know what to look for, look at the network settings and see if they make sense.
* Do you have a PC or a Mac running 10.4.8 to use as a control sample?

Internet Access Control

Hi.
Is it possible to keep track of the quantity of internet content received(in bytes) on a client machine?
How does the proxy server allow or disallow internet access to a subset of clients (or one client) in the LAN to which it is connected.
Thanks

I am using Network Magic version 5.5.9195.0-Pure0, platform version 11.2.9195.1 on a couple of Windows 7 laptops and I am finding when I set the Internet Access Control to "Prevent" that some websites like the www.yahoo.com and www.google.com can be still be accessed. I thought "Prevent" was supposed to completely turn off internet access? I also have BitDefender installed on these laptops for anti-virus and firewall and it includes parental controls, also, which I currently have set to always on for internet. Is BitDefender conflicting with Network Magic? Is there a way to get them to work together? I want to be able to turn off the internet so my kids can't get on whenever they want to. Thanks.
This won’t work anymore since HND is obsolete and I believed it is not actively maintained anymore. http://homecommunity.cisco.com/t5/Home-Network-Defender/Is-Home-Network-Defender-still-supported/td-...

RVS4000 & WRVS4400N Limited Internet Speed

Both of these model units apear to have a max Internet downlink speed of about 26 or 27Mbs. I have tested this with 10 different units at 3 different sites where the provided broadband downlink speed is a full 50Mbs, including in my own office. My normal router is a Cisco ASA5505 and I have also connected a Cisco 1840 router and even an old Linksys router and all achieve the full 50MBs speed using a variety of speed test sites. The cable modem at my office and at the other sites have a gigabit LAN connection and the RVS4000/WRVS4400N units certainly should be able to achieve the 50Mbs speed. I would appreciate a Cisco rep replying to this. If this issue can not be resolved, my clients will no doubt want me to install a different manufacturer's unit, which I will do.

Hello Ed Ruth,
I did some research and found the following:
Previous issues similar to yours were fixed or at least the speed was improved
after disabling some features like:
IPS => internet speed, disabling the firewall also improved notably speed throughput
in this device.
According to Cisco's developers and engineering team:
In the datasheet the speed stated is a maximum aggregated throughput - upload and download on all ports when IPS and Firewall are disabled. In the real world Internet connections there are a lot of factors which prevent router to get the maximum speed - encapsulation, interference, errors, protocols session negotiation and error correction etc.
The product has a lot of features, that is why download speeds are not so high when the device performs a routing. For the raw power, customer needs a device with less features and more speed-oriented like gamers routers. If customer doesn't need business features as VLANs, VPN, SNMP etc., we can recommend E3000 router rom the Cisco Home product range.
My best suggestion if you have further questions and are really concern about this issue which is a matter of device's capabilities, I will suggest that you open a case with TAC so that they can guide you better about if this will be necessary to contact Cisco's presales or provide you with some other options you can take advantage of in order to get a different device or disable the features mentioned previously.
Hope this helps you with your issue.
Chris Ramirez.

I have connected a airport extreem to my network and do npot see any increase in internet speeds

I have purchased a apple airport extreem and do not see any benifit to doing so. Download speeds and upload speeds are the same and streaming with my apple tv is still very slow.

Your Internet speed is controlled by your Internet Service Provider (ISP) and the plan that you have chosen with them. If you need a faster Internet connection speed, then you need to talk with your ISP about a faster Internet plan.
In other words, the AirPort Extreme cannot make the signal that it receives from your ISP go any faster.
The AirPort Extreme is capable of handling far greater speeds than your ISP can ever hope to provide, so think of the speed on your AirPort Extreme network as if it were a fire hose.....and speed delivered by your ISP as if it were a garden hose.
You can connect the garden hose to the fire hose with the right adapter, but you will get no more water out of the fire hose than the garden hose can deliver.

E3200 internet speed problem

I've just replace my router from WRT320 to E3200, because I've upgrade my internet speed from 100M to 300M.
But the speed test just show about 90M when using E3200, but if I plug direct without using E3200, the speed is up to 280M. For the firmware, I've tried 1.0.01, 1.0.02 and 1.0.03 aswell. Did anyone got a solution on that?

If you can change the Ethernet cable through which you are connecting the computer.. As well as update the drivers of the LAN card. For updating the drivers of the LAN card follow the steps:
# Click on Start --> on the search box type "devmgmt.msc" and click Ok...
# Device manager window will appear and in that check for the Wired adapter.. Right-click on the name of the Adapter that you want to install and click Update Driver Software…
# A window will appear asking “How do you want to search for the driver software?".. Click “Automatic Update"..
# It will automatically update find the latest drivers and will update it...
Check the computer if you are running Windows update on the back ground. If it is running then try to disable it temporarily. Here is the link for how to disable it: http://www.techtalkz.com/windows-7/515869-windows-update-enable-disable-automatic-updates-windows-7-...

Internet speed inconsistant

I have had the Airport Extreme base station for several months and it has worked without a hitch until this past week. Recently, the internet speed varies wildly: Web pages load erratically and Youtube and Movie Trailers on Apple TV take forever to buffer. I have tried multiple settings with the same result each time. To test, I used my Comcast Cable internet directly through Ethernet and with my Airport Express. Both work fine so it is definitely an issue with the Airport Extreme. I have also restored the AEBS with the reset button to factory default and created a new network from scratch with the same result as before.
Help!!

scratch that...
I tried before to do the 'alt click version number' trick to bring up v. 7.1.1, but it would only ever reveal 7.2.1 (I tried this yesterday). Today when i tried it on a fluke, 7.1.1 showed up and i've been able to upgrade (er... downgrade?) to that firmware.
Unfortunately, that didn't work.
But, I figured out what DID WORK:
Cable Modem --wired-->
WRT54G WiFi Router (DHCP server) --wired-->
APBS(n) *IN LAN PORT, NOT IN WAN PORT*
To get the full network speed, make sure you have "Use Wide Channels" turned on, otherwise you'll only be getting 130Mbit instead of the full 300Mbit speeds (check network utility). Of course, this speed is applicable only to LAN transfers (to your network connected drive, for instance), as your internet speeds will be determined by your ISP...
I've done A MILLION (give or take...) experiments on this router to get both the internet AND the network transfer speeds up to expectation. I'm willing to give some pointers if you have any questions.

Very slow Internet speeds throughout most of the d...

For the past month my Internet has been deteriorating. I get patches of the day (maybe 30minutes) where I have a normal Internet speed, latency's of ~30 and download speeds of around 5k kbps. But now my average download speed is more around 300-600 kbs with latency's greater than 150. I find that the connection is slightly better late at night or early in the morning. I have tried the call centre's but they really haven't helped what so ever.

Download speedachieved during the test was - 1157 Kbps
For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 600-7150 Kbps.
Additional Information:
Your DSL Connection Rate :6496 Kbps(DOWN-STREAM), 448 Kbps(UP-STREAM)
IP Profile for your line is - 5000 Kbps
Would be grateful for some help/insight in this matter as it very fustrating.

Hi jpleclef,
Your line is entitled to get the speed close to 7 megs. The test that you have uploaded shows the good router status. I would advice you to check it with the ethernet cable (yellow ended). If however it gives you the same speed then it can be considered as an issue.
There might be some flag on the line.
Could you please tell me your plan.
And there are several ways where you can raise this issue to higher level.
Dear jpleclef, Please note that you need to be paitient with this. I am saying this because I've seen thousands issue like this which customer endup giving the BB connection, even this doesn't help because changing the service provider doesn't changes the line.
So, Task for you is:
Check with ethernet cables.
tell me your option plan
In the next post I'll explain you a lot more of the test result that you have posted. Feel free to write me on *******.

Wireless Internet Speed and freezing constantly

Recently I have found my wireless internet speed dramatically slower and at times I find that it in fact won't connect with various webpages - I have had numerous instances that it even fails to connect to google or msn. Now I also own a powerbook and MacPro and I don't notice the lag or the infrequency that I seem to be having with my MacBook Pro. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Last week i received the new MacBook Pro 17" 3.1 and when i connect to my wireless network i've the same problems reported by 24LPS_Films.
I've this hardware:
Router Wireless TP-Link model TL-WR642Gv1, firmware 2.10.1 Build 060317 Rel.59202n.
MacBook Pro 17" 3.1; Airport Extreme (0x168C, 0x87)
The computer is connected to the wireless network, but when browsing or using other internet services the speed is very slow or inexistent.
I've done some tests:
- Connected to the internet with the ethernet cable --> ALL OK
- Connectet to the same wireless router with an external wireless card: Alpha Network AWUS036H --> ALL OK
- Connected to another computer in lan with the internal wireless card --> ALL OK
- Connected with the internal wireless card using Windows XP throught BootCamp to the same router --> ALL OK
- Changed the type of the wireless network to 802.11b, 802.11g, Open, WEP, WPA2-PSK --> NOTHING CHANGED
After that i think that there's a problem in MacOS X with these new cards.
MacBook Pro 17" 3.1 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

WRT 120 Internet Access Control Problem for itouch

I've just set up my router. Cannot seem to control access to the internet for my son's itouch. The router recognizes it on the map as a wireless device part of the network, but it will not show up in the menu that allows for internet access control. My lap top shows up, but no itouch. I'm running Windows XP home premium edition - not sure if this makes a difference.

Open the linksys setup page...Under the Wireless tab,Change the Channel Width to 20MHz only,Channel to 11 and click on save settings...Under the Advanced Wireless Settings,Change the Beacon Interval to 75,Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304,Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 and Click on Save Settings...
On the I-Touch..Go to Settings>>>General>>>Reset>>>Now select Reset Network Settings.This will now reboot and restore you network connections.
