Long time DSL connection now slow

I've had Verizon DSL for several years (maybe 7 years?). I've always seen a consistent 1.5MB download speed (down was whatever .3 I guess?). Speedtest.net consistently confirmed this. Again, FOR SEVEN YEARS! This was the speed I was promised when I signed up - I recall reading it in the paper work and being happy I was getting something better than 768!
Lately, this isn't the case. At best, speedtest.net gives me .85/.30 (but usually I'm getting .6 download). The slow-down is pretty noticable in day-to-day access. Verizon.net has some type of speed test I stumbled across - I got in the .3's for both up and down.
I have my original Westell 2200 DSL modem hooked into a standard WRT54G Linksys wireless router. I recall I had to manually switch into the Westell into bridge mode for this setup to work. (bridge-mode wasn't required on my old router for whatever reason, but I switched to the linksys ~2.5 years ago, so it's nothing new).
I took my router out of the loop and hooked my laptop direclt to the DSL modem. Since I was in bridge mode I configured Windows 7 to connect via PPPoE which worked (surprisingly). However I saw no real speed increase.
After some fiddling (static IP address and a direct wired connection to a laptop) I dug this out of the modem (sorry for the bad formatting):

Any suggestion on how to troubleshoot this? I want to have all my ducks in a row before I call Verizon.
What are those speeds in the Trans. Info? Have I been limited to that somehow?

Your statistics are better, mainly the margins though the margin will more than likely sag down to it's original margins of 16dB while connected in your home. On sync inside of your home, you should see the margins reach the same levels.
It might be worthwhile to see if you can get a Verizon tech to detail the copper network to you. Have him see if he knows what the wire gauge is, and if the copper could use some repairs to improve the DSL a bit.

What did Apple tell you about what they did (or did not) find here?
See if working on the main disk is any faster.
USB2 is glacial, as I/O interconnects go. And USB2 disks have been known to fail, or sometimes to drop back to USB1 speeds, too. FireWire 800 is substantially faster than USB2, but still not as fast as the internal drive connections can provide.
Put another way, start varying your configuration, and see which configuration changes (still) have the problem, and which don't.

Sqlplus takes long time to connect

Hi All,
I am using database 11.2 on Linux x86-64 platform.
Using SQLPLUS (bequeath) to connect to the database as a particular user it takes a long time to connect and connecting to the database as any other user is instantaneous.

Wifi takes long time to connect

My MacBook Air (13-inch, mid-2013) takes a long time to connect to any wi-fi network (~ 30 seconds), including known/previously connected ones. Upon wake from sleep, the network will have disconnected and will have to reconnect, again taking about 30 seconds. Also, I notice that even when the display turns off briefly, the network will still disconnect. It does not matter which network it is. However, Power Nap notifications will still show up and be up to date upon wake, suggesting that the disconnection is happening only when I wake the computer.
Things I have tried:
- removing all networks
- toggling wake for wi-fi network access and put hard disks to sleep when possible
- setting Location
- deleting all network system preference files and restarting
- resetting SMC
- restoring OS X Mavericks (10.9.3, clean install) with no recovery of network settings
Any ideas on further things to try?

The latest OS X update (10.9.4) is supposed to fix some problems like yours.

DSL connection gets slower than dial up at night

For the last week my DSL connection has been getting really slow in the late afternoon and evening. It is fine in the morning. Also in the evening I have started getting error messages such as Request Timeout, The connection was reset while the page was loading, and Can't find DNS server. Verizon has tried to blame my laptop, but the same thing happens with my two desktops and my wife's desktop. Verizon has also tried to blame my Belkin router, which I took out of the equation by hooking the DSL modem directly to my laptop. The modem is a Westell 6100G.
Could there be too much traffic through the CO in the afternoon and evening that is affecting my connection?
I have run the Verizon speed test with the following results:

NDT Test is not showing packet loss yet the line sounds like it's behaving like there is a ton of loss occurring. I'll see if I can get someone. It's hard to say how Verizon has things set up but if 1Mbps is the top speed in your area and the sync rate was set that low deliberately rather than by some sort of provisioning accident, I wonder if your DSLAM is fed by bonded T1 lines. Not too uncommon to find that still to this day where DSLAMs are not fed by Fiber especially in very rural areas.

It takes long time to connect Satellite A110-049 to Actiontec GT701-WRU router

Actiontec wireless router model GT701-WRU
Since buying a Toshiba A110-049 running Windows Vista (this was necessary because the old laptop gave up the ghost) We have been having problems connecting to this router.
Using the old laptop, running Windows XP, connection was instantaneous and reliable.
Now, using Vista, it takes a long time (10 minutes or more) to get a connection. In fact, we pick up signals from more distant networks more readily than from our own router.
I have been in touch with Actiontec technical support, who have been very knowledgable and helpful in the past. However, I am told that nothing can be done about signal problems.
I think it is rather strange that there were no signal problems before migrating to Vista: the router and laptop are both in the same locations.
Is there a known issue with either this model laptop or router?
I'd be grateful of any help.
John

Sorry to raise this problem again, but I have just discovered something.
Routinely, when I first boot up without connecting to the wi-fi router and then later attempt to connect, I can be waiting for twenty minutes or more before the router is 'seen'. Today, in fact, I waited for an hour without my laptop finding the router in the next room, whereas a neighbour's (unsecured) Linksys router was picked up instantly. Having become rather fed up by now I re-booted, this time via the 'Internet start button' (sorry, I can't remember its proper name, but it's the button just below the main start button on the left of the keyboard!). This time it connected with the router immediately.
Can anyone suggest what is happening here?

Exchange 2013 mailbox takes a long time to connect with Outlook 2010

We just installed a 2013 CAS/Mailbox server in our Exchange 2007 environment and are running in coexistence while we migrate users over. So far I have only moved one 2007 mailbox over, a new account used for testing. Everything is working fine, OWA,
ECP, ActiveSync, etc... When connecting Outlook to a 2007 mailbox autodiscover takes a couple seconds and Outlook opens fine. The problem is when connecting Outlook to a mailbox on the 2013 server. Autodiscover takes about a minute before it finally finds
the settings and the mailbox takes about 30 seconds to open everytime. It generally times out, I click retry and the mailbox opens. Once in everything is good but the initial loading always takes a long time, double the time when opening Outlook with a shared
mailbox attached. All autodiscover is autodiscover.domain.com, Exchange 2007 is all legacymail.domain.com aside from the components that need to point to 2013. We do not have any certificate issues, well that's not true, at some time in the last couple years
someone applied a 3rd party cert to our domain.com root but not sure if that would cause this issue. Also, these are internal clients we are trying to get going with the 2013 mailbox, not external. I just applied a registry change that helped someone else
out there by disabling IPv6 for all components but that did not work for us MS KB929852. Any suggestions? Right now I am thinking of changing the internalURI for autodiscover to the FQDN of the server but wanted to see if anyone had any ideas.
Jeremy

Hi Angela, thanks for the response. I cannot post links or pictures as my account has not been verified?
The autoconfiguration tests passed, I will paste the xml below. Ping times were all under 1ms. When I entered the IP for the 2013 serve I received errors that the connection to Exchange is unavailable followed by another one that the name cannot be resolved.
I did this test by removing the Outlook profile and creating one manually without Autodiscover. I am able to ping the server by all names from the command prompt.
Our autodiscover.domain.com points to our 2013 server and the name is resolvable both internally and externally. Our certificates cover the internal server name fqdn as well as external names. I am doing all testing in the internal network.

DSL Connection Very slow ONLY when using wireless router

My DSL connection was running super slow (approx 136 Kbs) - I disconnected the Linksys wireless router and plugged by DSL modem directly into the computer. Then my internet speed increased to 1.4 Mbs (a 10 fold increase).
Any suggestions on how / why my speed drops so extensively when using the Linksys wireless routher (wrt45g).
Thanks

Are you using the same test each time to measure the speed?
The reason I ask is that Windows usually reports its download speed in KB/sec (Kilobytes per second). But most web (internet) speed tests report their speed in Mbps (Megabits per second.)
A 1.4 Mbps line will typically pass data at about 140KB/sec.
To help determine what kind of problem you are having, do the same speed test in 3 different ways:
1) Connect one computer, by wire, directly to your modem
2) Connect one computer, by wire, directly to your router (all other computers and network devices should be off).
3) Connect one computer, wirelessly, to your router (all other computers and network devices should be off).
Report back your results, and also, please state what line speed you are paying for. Once we have this, we will hopefully be able to help you.

Intermittent connection - Now slow less than 1mb

Hi
I have reported issues to BT and Talk Talk for a number of YEARS now. Having returned to BT in January out of frustration I am now faced with the issue all over again.
At times, randomly it appears, my BB cuts out when recieiving or making landline calls. This will happen a lot for a period of time and will reduce the profile of the line to 1mb from 3.5-7mb. I have had several engineers over the last few years visit the property and on every occassion they never found a fault at the house and have always remarked that inspite of distance from the exchange that db levels where low and signal was good. Normal service can last from a week or two to a few months.
For another week now I have had to deal with almost dial-up connection and download speeds. I can't effectively work from home, participate in gaming events or even recieve video birthday messages from family and friends
here is a copy of the last BB speed test.
Download speedachieved during the test was - 0.96 Mbps
For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 0.2 Mbps-1 Mbps.
Additional Information:
Your DSL Connection Rate :1.25 Mbps(DOWN-STREAM), 0.45 Mbps(UP-STREAM)
IP Profile for your line is - 1 Mbps
I have tried to be patient and wait for automatic profile update but the profile is going down not up and download speeds are now stuck at 88-101kb/s.
I have done all the required checks of pc, wires, router and master socket. Noise continues to be a feature of most landline calls albeit at present these don't appear to be causing BB disconnects.
Having been without and ADSL signal for 4 weeks in Dec and Jan and now facing this for the last week or 2 I am really at the end of my resolve as to what more I can do.
If needed, I would be happy for you to disconnect all voice calls on the landline and have voice calls diverted to my mobile in a hope to maintain a reliable and useable BB service which I, like others these days, rely on. Any solution would be welcomed. Please.
Thank you

I have reported the same issue before via phone faults but as the issue is intermittent they have never confirmed a line fault.
Having spent a Month with no ADSL signal in January where I reported the issue to both phone and BB and all I ever got was 'well there isn't a fault showing at our end'. The BT openworld engineer on 30th January checked the house etc etc and found nothing wrong with internal wiring. He completed a number of tests using an array of equipment and confirmed that there was no fault on the line despite there not being an ADSL signal.
He made a call and had something reset and hey presto within 2 mins I had 3.64Mb and a download rate of over 400Kb/s. He asked me why 1st and 2nd line support hadn't requested the same...I wont repeat my answer!
As you can imagine, I am frustrated as this saga continues here are the latest stats after a full and lengthy reset.
Clearly there is an issue with the cable running to the house or to the exchange but being underground I am guessing it must be environmental but I have no way of replicating the fault
Thank you

Takes a long time to connect to the internet when I first open an app

I bought my Macbook Pro Retina 13inch last weekend and I love it! Everything was working fine but over the last couple of days, when I first open an app, for example Safari, Google Chrome, iTunes, App Store, anything that requires an internet connection, it takes a long time to load up that first time, but after the first page has been loaded it works again fine until closing the app and re-opening it. When loading the App Store or iTunes it has even said an internet connection is required, even though my connection is fine and the other apps are still loading ok.
I first thought it was my WIFI connection but I have checked my router and everything seems fine, also my iPad and iPhone are still working fine with the internet.
Has anyone else had the same problem or can offer me a solution?

I am getting the same issue, on first starting safari the first page takes an age to load.. once it has everything is fine.
I have tried the 'Reset Safari' function but no difference. This only happens on my Macbook Pro Retina, Using safari on my iphone or ipad is fine. (I connect via ethernet too so its not a wifi problem.)
Any one got an answer to this yet?

MacBook Pro takes long time to connect

I know there are lots of threads about MBk Pro Airport connection probs so apologies for starting another
I’m using a MBook Pro 2.2Ghz running 10.4.11 together with an Airport Extreme (11n) base station. I have only recently switched to the ‘n’ version from the previous 11g which gave a host of problems with disconnects and so on.
Even though signal strength is good, when using 11n, the MBk takes a long time (up to a minute or so) to find and establish the connection, even though this is the only network in the house.
I have a feeling that some of the mods I did as per other threads to get a connection using the 11g may not have been fully reinstated to the current defaults. At present I have the following in system/library/extensions:
AppleAirPort.kext v 3.4.9
AppleAirPort2.kext v 4.0.5
IO80211Family.kext v 1.6.2
I have a feeling I should also have AppleAirPortEnabler.kext (version?).
Could someone confirm the above are the current default up to date versions as at 10.4.11, and also whether I should have the AppleAirPortEnabler.kext installed as well.
I know I should have the originals - I did but they have gone missing. Probably buried in the drive somewhere, neither I nor Spotlight can find them.
Thanks for any help.
Happy New Year to all on these boards from a rather dull UK Midlands.

Given your connection will eventually come good you'll probably find that your problem lies with your DHCP server and your MBP's inability to quickly get a new address. Check the DHCP's server admin that it has a decently large enough address pool as having too small a pool can often cause these issues. I normally recommend having a pool around 50% more than the number of computers that it serves else a minimum of 5.

I downloaded and installed Firefox 4, but it won't open. I have used an older version of Firfox for a long time. I now have nothing. What gives?

I've used an older version (3.?) of Firefox for a long time. I had loads of bookmarks. I downloaded the new Firefox 4. It won't open and the older version is now gone. I use a Mac with a 400 MHz PowerPC G4 with 1.12 GB SDRAM and a 60 GB Internal Hard Drive. I'm running Mac OS X Version 10.4.11. I really need to recover the older version of Firefox or make the new version work.

Firefox 4 requires at least OS X 10.5 and an Intel Mac. There is a third party version of Firefox 4 that runs on OS X 10.4/10.5 and PPC Macs, for details see http://www.floodgap.com/software/tenfourfox
If you prefer, you can get the latest version of Firefox 3.6 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html

IMac G5 - 5 Meg DSL connection is slow to connect

My IMac is slow to connect on my DSL. I have no router in line and have disabled the firewall. It's wierd I'll type in a site and I may have to refresh or just wait before I connect to a site. If I go and check my bandwidth it says speed greater than 4.5 meg... It's like once it start transmitting it screams but to connect it can take over a minute sometimes... Sprint came out to troubleshoot and the connection works fine on his PC laptop... I have also tried the connection on my IBook with the same problem. The IBook works fine at any other location. I'm thinking the Mac's don't like the DSL connection... Any Sugestions? Anyone?

Welcome to the discussions!
Without a router, at least you know that it is not a lossy router causing issues.
It sounds like a DNS issue to me. My ISP has slow DNS servers and I found out on DSLReports.com that 4.2.2.x where "X" is any number from 1 to 6 give very good lookups. I put in those numbers and my page loads improved greatly.
