Lenovo G550 and Sagem Fast 800 ADSL modem - limits DL speed to approx. 500kbit/s

Hi,
I bought Lenovo G550 on Tuesday and since then I've got a strange issue with my Internet connection. Until Tuesday I was using Sagem Fast 800 ADSL modem from my ISP on Toshiba Satellite A100-712 notebook since June 2008 with 1Mbit connection and everything was fine - DL speed was 128KB/s (1Mbit/s) as it should, but now on Lenovo the max DL speed I get is ~500kbit/s (60KB/s) and I can't overcome it..
I've done the following so far:
* I have tried on preinstalled  Windows Vista - max DL speed I get is ~500kbit/s
* I have installed Windows XP Professional SP3, Sagem drivers installed properly, no unknown devices in device manager - max DL speed I get is ~500kbit/s
* I have installed Windows 7 Professional, Sagem drivers installed properly, no unknown devices in device manager - max DL speed I get is ~500kbit/s
* I've checked download speed on "real" downloads and DSL testing portals (dsl.cz, speedtest.pl, speedtest2.com) - max DL speed I get is ~500kbit/s
* I have turned off energy saving on USB and ADSL modems on all 3 Windows OS mentioned, restarted the PC - max DL speed I get is ~500kbit/s
* I have plugged and checked the download speed on all 3 USB ports - max DL speed I get is ~500kbit/s
* I have installed cFosSpeed - max DL speed I get is ~500kbit/s
* I've called  the ISP, they checked the connection (1Mbit shown up in their tests), checked if there are any problems with their infrastructure (nothing was wrong), finally reset my port and asked to check my DL speed - max DL speed I get is ~500kbit/s
* the ISP has sent an onsite technician, guy brought his own HP notebook and Sagem Fast 800 modem (just like mine) to check my connection - on his HP laptop both mine and his modems got 1Mbit/s DL speed, and when I tried both modems with my Lenovo G550, guess what -max DL speed I got was ~500kbit/s on both of them (so it's obvious that it's not modem, line or ISP's fault)
It seems that this issue is notebook related. I'm running out of ideas, the last thing I'm going to try today is to run Ubuntu LiveCD and check my DL speed then, but to be honest I don't expect it to change anything.
Could anyone possibly help me? It really sucks to pay for 1Mbit and have real download speed less than half of it.
Regards,
PW

  • IMac and SpeedTouch 330 USB ADSL Modem

    Hi all,
    A friend of mine just received his iMac, he has got an ADSL 2 Mo connection through a Alcatel speed touch 330 USB.
    I've downloaded the last driver for Tiger but the modem doesn't work with iMac altough is working well with PC XP, have you got any idea please ?

    Hi
    You say ADSL2.
    USB modem's dont work very well with mac's(even less with intel mac's) as they need drivers, you will be better off getting a ethernet router/modem like a Netgear DG834G wireless http://www.dsl-warehouse.co.uk/product.asp?pr=DG834G or a 4port http://www.dsl-warehouse.co.uk/product.asp?pr=DG834 no drivers needed so no headaches when the OS get updated and the USB drivers get broken.

  • WRT54G and Trendnet TDM-C400 ADSL modem

    Hello guys,
    I'm having some major issues here, and hoping maybe the community might be able to help.
    Just moved, and with the move I chose to move to another ISP using PPPoE.
    So I bought a Trendnet ADSL 2 Modem which, when connected directly in my laptop works fine. However, having a few devices to connect, I wish to use my WRTG54G router.
    So what I do is plug in my modem in the INTERNET port of my router, no go. I've tried combining many configurations on the router and the modem, and still... nothing!
    I'm desperate!!! lol
    Thanks for the help, and don't hesitate if you need more info to help!
    Thank you!

    If you need to set PPPoE try to Follow this link , if it is other than PPPoE you cannot set it.

  • Lenovo G550 - how can I run three monitors

    I've just bought a Lenovo G550 and am running Windows XP Pro on it.   So far so good.  I'm quite happy with it as I think it represents good value for the money.
     I have been able to run two external monitors on my G550 laptop - using the VGA port and the HDMI port.  But I can't get my laptop monitor to work to make it a third monitor.  Has anyone had any success with this and if so how did you do it.
    Thank you.
    Dovetail 

    Assuming, for the purposes of discussion, that the application allows you to display six windows, one for each stock, then if you were to use two 27" monitors, would the six windows properly arranged in the two monitors be sufficiently large to serve your purpose?  Your active window areas would be on the order of 900x500 pixels, assuming one of the plentiful 1920x1080 monitors.
    Your other option would be two additional PCIe video cards.  From page 64 of your user guide, note the following:
    Also, from the tech brief on the last G5 towers, note the following on page 10:

  • What is the best ADSL modem to use with AEBS in the UK?

    I'm currently using the Netgear DG834G with it's wireless functionality switched off, and my AEBS (gigabit) is set up as a bridge.
    When I've tried to resolve various problems such as getting iChat AV working I've got the impression that I might have fewer problems if I let the AEBS do the routing, and simply had an ADSL modem connected to it (rather than a modem/router combo).
    What do other people use in the UK, and what success do you have with Skype, iChat etc?
    Is there a better way to configure my DG834G so it only acts as a modem? I don't have much technical knowledge in this area, though I have been through the Netgear control panel and sorted out fixed IP addresses.
    In some respects, ie. internet browsing, streaming movie trailers on the Apple TV, OS X software updates, all perform perfectly. From that point of view, it seems that there cannot be too much wrong?
    A couple of 'by the ways': I also have an Airport Express configured in bridge mode to use with my iPhone and 802.11g MacBook, so that I can keep the Airport Extreme (gigabit) set to work exclusively on 802.11n for maximum performance to the Apple TV. The Extreme and Express are using different frequencies.
    I've just ordered the new Mac Pro, which has two Ethernet ports. Is there a way I can put these to good use, for example having a standard network separate from a gigabit network using jumbo frames? I'm sure this is too much to put in one thread, but in a way it's probably best to cover everything together!

    I use the Linksys ADSL2MUE - which I managed to buy for £12.
    I configured it in bridged mode - leaving the Apple Extreme do all the firewall and DHCP stuff.
    It's not pretty but does the job.

    it could be because of you re-partitioned the volume. warranty may cover the issue if you have valid one ( international warranty - iws - )
    try to burn default backup before ordering dvd sets.
    you can order recovery discs. call lenovo support line.
    check your warranty from the link below:

  • SKY Adsl Modem - Configured on UC520

    Hi All,
    Firstly I hope you are enjoying the holiday season and spending time with family and friends...
    I have a quick question: Is it possible to configure the UC520 and one of the ports to be PPPoA and act as an ADSL Modem?
    If so could someone point me in the right direction?
    Thanks
    Brian
    Happy Holidays and Seasons Greetings to All

    Hi Brian,
    The UC500 doesn´t support PPPoA instead it use PPPoE like Paolo said you have to change the router from your ISP to bridge mode, if you need something about the configuration you can tell me.
    If it is useful please rate.
    Best regards.

  • URGENT Lenovo g550 webcam does not show up in Device Manager and all drivers cannot be installed

    Hello everyone. So my lenovo g550 webcam stopped working after I did a clean install of windows 7 home. When I go under device manager I do not see any unknow devices. When I also go to show hidden devices it is not there. Could anyone give me information about how to fix this and if the cable to the webcam might be broken. If so, is there a way I could convert the webcam's pin outs to usb to test it. I have split an old usb cable into four colored spots. Not sure if i want to test it though. That would be my last resort. If needbe, can you tell me the pin outs for the webcam. It has five connectors. The reason I know this is usb is because my older installation on windows 7 detected it and said that the usb could be faster. Thanks.

    Sorry about that. I've only been a member for a few days. I will remove the post with all Capps. Have a nice day!

  • Macbook failure to use Tiscali's Sagem 800 USB Modem

    Dear all,
    Bought Macbook yesterday, took today off to enjoy it but spent day trying unsuccessfully to connect to Tiscali broadband via Sagem 800 USB modem, including an hour on the phone to Apple helpdesk (in Greece). Not best pleased. They eventually gave up and tried to transfer me to Sagem, but all I got was an answer message saying they'd all gone home. Triffic.
    Could anyone tell me (without using acronyms or abbreviations if at all possible):
    1. Will this modem work with my laptop?
    2a. If so, what must I do to get it to work?
    2b. If not, what would you suggest (ideally, I'd keep with Tiscali and go for a modem that allows my desktop PC and the Macbook to connect to the internet at the same time)?
    Many thanks in advance for any help,
    Simon

    Hi chaps
    Thanks for all the helpful advice. I now have a Netgear DG834G and set it up with (almost) no problems. It took a little longer than 5 minutes mainly because I thought the installation would be quite complicated In the end I chose AUTOMATIC set up on the Built-in Ethernet and bingo - one iMac DV 400 surfing away with NO (as yet) dropped connections. Regarding Tiscali, I have emailed them twice via their website for advice and they have not bothered to reply - if it wasn't just a nuisance to change ISPs I would consider moving...
    When my daugher got her MAcbook the other week we fired it up in the garden and it immediately saw the Netgear on wireless - internet connection in about 10 seconds I love Macs /___sbsstatic___/migration-images/migration-img-not-avail.png

  • WOL - add router between ADSL modem and computer?

    Hi
    My computer is connected to a Livebox ADSL modem (the Sagem F@ast 3202).
    I am trying set the system up so it wakes up from sleep at the reception of a magic packet from the internet. I have forwarded port 9 as per instrux on the web. The computer wakes up only sporadically though.
    I read long ago somewhere online (but can't for the life of me find it) that one can add another router (between the Livebox and the computer, I assume) which would "listen" for the magic packet and then wake up the computer.
    I happen to have an old DLink DSL-604+. Is this something I could add to the chain of equipment to make the setup more stable? If so, how should the DLink be configured?
    Thanks for any insight.
    /p

    Thanks for the suggestion.
    I've looked in the settings on the Livebox and find, under the Firewall tab, something called Access control. It lets me defined a username, password and port using which I may access the Livebox's setup page from the internet.
    Apart from this, I find under the Firewall tab something called Policies and NAT but neither appears to be relevant to me. If there's any other disconnect setting I can't find it. I guess it could be in the flash ROM somewhere.
    My test indicates that I can access the Livebox setup page without the computer having to be on (obvious). Is there some way to start a sleeping computer from within such a setup page (longshot)?
    /p

  • WRT54GS2 and Siemens ADSL modem - dropping Internet connection

    I am having an internet connection issue. I have a Win98 Desktop directly connected to an ADSL modem - SIEMENS Speetstream 4100. That connection works well.
    I had a WRT54G (old school, blue and black) wireless router connected to it which allowed me to use my WinXP laptop in the house. I then upgraded the router to  a WRT54GS2, and now I lose the connection to the internet every minute or so while connected through that. The connection between the modem and the router goes down, not the connection to either the desktop (wireless) or the laptop. And if I switch to direct connection through the modem, I get a solid, reliable connection to the Internet.
    Is there some problem with the SIEMENS ADSL modem and the Linksys router not playing nice together?
    I have tried ipconfig /release and /renew on both my laptop and the desktop, I have turned off all computers, modem, and router, and powered back up in the correct order: Modem, router, desktop and laptop. 
    Here's the output of ipconfig /all when my laptop is connected directly through the ADSL modem:

    Why does the new WRT54GS2 lose internet connectivity when a direct connection through the modem does not lose connectivity and the old one was reliable?
    Thanks in advance.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Your ADSL modem is in half-bridge mode. It does the PPPoE connection and then passes the IP addresses, etc. through DHCP to the device connected. Several people seem to have problems with different routers and these modems.
    I would suggest you reconfigure the ADSL modem into full bridge mode (i.e. the modem works really like a simple modem and does not connect to the internet itself). In full bridge mode you should be able to configure your router with PPPoE and connect to the internet directly. That should work better.
    If the ADSL modem is intelligent enough it may automatically switch to full-bridge mode if you configure the router for PPPoE.
    You should see the difference in the DNS servers which the router got. In half-bridge mode the ADSL modem seems to assign its own IP address 192.168.0.1 as DNS server. If you connect directly to your ISP you should see the IP addresses of your ISP's DNS servers.

  • Lenovo g550 upgrade hard drive and ram

    I have a Lenovo G550 (20023), it has Intel T4300 CPU, 3 GB DDR3 RAM,Intel GMA 4500M graphics card and Windows 7, with 320 GB seagate HDD.

  • Cisco 877W router and external ADSL modem

    Cisco 877W router and external ADSL modem
    In order to support ADSL2+ on a pre ADSL2+ router and in preparation for a later migration to BT infinity I am trying to configure the Router using an external adsl2+ modem appropriately.
    The original configuration had 3 ports configured as one (internal lan) vlan and bridge group together with one wireless sub-interface, the remaining port configured a second vlan and bridge group with a second wireless sub- interface. The Dialer was a member of the second bridge group. This way the second wireless interface and associated bridge group provided a kind of DMZ for outbound access.
    The configuration I am attempting is similar the lan ports remain the same, but port 0 as a member of the vlan and bridge group (now a pppoe client) associated with one of the wireless sub interfaces as per above. The ATM interface is downed. This nearly works except that if the wireless subinterface on this bridge group is configured the dialer no longer dials giving a 'no dialer string' error. If I do not configure that wireless sub interface all works well.
    If anyone is interested to look I would appreciate any comments. I enclose a sanitised config in which you will note the 'commented out' wireless subnet interface (in red).

    Hi Jody,
    Apologies delay in replying. I have done the following:
    Made two of the FE ports vlan1,BVI1 (for LAN traffic)
    Left one port as VLAN10 as the pppoe client conected to the externalmodem
    Made the last port VLAN10 as well and gave it an IP addess as for a DMZ client.
    I have DHCP configured to serve the DMZ  addresses.
    This all works for LAN clients and also works for a client attachedto that physical DMZ port.
    When I added a dot11radio sub interface into VLAN 10 the wireless client did not get an IP lease. Everything else continued to work.
    I had never thought about this before, but if a dot11radio interface is on the same vlan (but not being part ofa bridge group) why are DHCP broadcasts not propogating to all the vlan members as I would have expected. I recognise that this isa limit in my understanding.
    If I then made VLAN10 a member of a new Bridge Group, I lost WAN connectivity as per original posting.
    I cannot add another VLAN due to the 2 vlan limit in this image.
    Finally regarding your comment about giving it what it wants, what exactly did you have in mind. The dialer already has a dial string parameters configured.
    Think I am about to give upon this.
