Loss on connection speed

Hi out there,
  I just purchased wireless router wrt54-gs and adapter wusb54gsc for my laptop.
Installation went ok and got system up and running. When I first starting using
system my signal strength was excellent and connection was at 54mpbs. Checked
my download speeds with dsl reports at a consistant 2500-3000 mpbs. After using
system for a while I noticed signal strength read good and connection fluctuated
at 11mpbs and 5 mpbs, all of this happening with my laptop in the same position!!
I rebooted the laptop numerous times and still the same slow connection speeds.
After shutting system down ovenight in same physical location, rebooted and still
have same slow connection.
Any ideas????
Thanks

I can't help you, but I have the same situation. I have a speedbooster usb adapter hooked up to my desktop and haven't moved it a twitch, yet I get differing connect speeds and signal strength varies back and forth from low to very good. Only have one neighbor that I can see who is broadcasting a wireless signal. Just curious what is going on.

  • Loss of Connection Speed

    Can anyone offer any advice on how to get my issue with speed resolved?
    For over 12 months I have been experiencing a connection speed of 3.5MBps, not great but acceptable. This meant a real speed pf about 2.7MBps.
    About 4 weeks ago my connection speed suddenly dropped to 500k. I repoprted the problem and was told that there was a fault on my line which would be investigated. I had a return call saying that an engineer would need to visit, but the visit was not to be until 4th May. In this time my connection speed did improve a little.
    I also phone BT Broadband sales to try and find out whatwas happeneding with BT Ignite as my exchange (Bradwell Abbey) is on a fibre to premises trial. I was told that they did not have any further information, but they were able to give me a small speed increase to 4MBps.
    The engineer came and said that there was noise on my line and that he would connect me to a new pair of cables. He advised that it would take 72 hours for my speed to increase. After this time my speed had increases and I was getting a connection of 2200Kps, but nothing near what I had before. I therefore called support again and had over two hours on thephone, being passed from one department to another. The Braodband team saying that I still had a fault, but the engineers saying that I did not. Eventually they agreed that there was a fault and another engineer came on 16th May. he performed tests, but did not find any problems at my end of the line and I am not sure what he did at the exchange. However ny connection speed fell to 2048Kbpss still continuing to fall.
    I called support again on Wednesday 19th and was told that my line needed10 days to stabilise and they were testing the slowest and the fastese speed that it could cope with. Today the speed is down to 1632KBps and I cannot see it gettinga ny better. I notice that the nosie margin on my line has now increased from 6dB to 13dB.
    I cannot understand what has happened here as I was enjoying a reasonabel speed for a long period and this has been halved overnight. It does not seem that it will be resolved.
    My next door neighbour has a connection speed of 4800KBps wth another provider. Should I be changing? I have been with BT Broadband since 2001 when it was first avaialble and having ISDN before that.

  • Very low connection speed.

    Hi, I've waited the 10 days since I first got BT Broadband and I wondered about the slow speed I am getting. The speed test says my line is rated for 8mbit (8000kbit) but I only get up to 900kbit connection speed, it was around 600-700kbit for a while but now seems to have settled at 900~kbit. When I ordered the package the line check said I can get between 8 and 15megabit but should expect 8.5.
    Is there a fault on the line? The online speed checker thing (which seems to have been replaced or I just can't find it anymore) said I should report a fault and that on my line I should be connecting at more like 6000kbit-7000kbit.

  • Just cannot get a good connection speed....

    Hi all,
    We changed our ISP from a steady 2MB connection with TalkTalk to a potential 8MB connection with BT about 2 and half weeks ago.
    The TalkTalk connection was sound.....It was stable and reliable and we never had any problems when accessing the internet, downloading files and using games consoles for online play.
    Then we got BT (My dads call, not mine...) and things have just hurtled downhill at a gargantuan rate.
    We were told of a 10 day stabalisation period, which I was willing to ride out, despite a horrible connection speed which made browsing, downloading and playing on my PS3 close to unbearable.
    We have contacted BT by phone numerous times to no avail, and our speed hasnt improved ONCE over the last 2 and half weeks we've had the connection active......I figured the 10 day stabalisation period would have improved gradually over that time, and not just suddenly kick in during the end of the 10 days.
    I've been using the Homehub 2.0, but the previous Router doesnt seem to work either (Netgear), so I;m assuming its the connection itself causing the problems......I'm 95% sure its nothing we can do about it.......I've personally tried everything and had no success whatsoever (tinkering with router settings, trying different routers etc.)
    The router stats are below.....According to a speed tester, our download speed is 0.13 and upload speed is 0.46 (obviously not what it should be!)

  • WLC 5508 intermittent loss of connectivity

    Hi.
    I have a WLC 5508 connecting directly to a distribution switch (3850) via a layer 2 etherchannel trunk fibre link with LAG enabled on the WLC.
    Whenever there is a loss of power to the server room where both devices are hosted & power later gets restored, the distribution switch & WLC lose Layer 2 & 3 connectivity. Connectivity only gets restored when the WLC is power cycled or the fibre cables connecting to its SFP ports are removed & plugged back in. When this is done connectivity is restored between them, APs associate etc. Once there is a loss of power to the room for whatsoever reason again, the loss of connectivity issue re-occurs.
    Disabled the etherchannel at some point, using only a single fibre trunk link between them, but the issue persists.
    Also check for interface errors, CRCs, etc on both ends but there are none.
    Can anyone please advice me on what the issue is & what can be done to permanently resolve this?
    Thanks in anticipation.
    Ope.

    Software version is 7.4.100.0
    int gig1/0/5
      switchport mode trunk
      switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
      channel-group 1 mode on
    int gig1/0/6

    switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
    channel-group 1 mode on
    Port setting on the switch is set to auto-negotiate. Port setting on the controller is "auto". The link has been negotiated (& always negotiates) to 1000Mbps full duplex on both ends.
    Presently in transit with no way of connecting to the device, but I checked the duplex & speed settings on both devices which was appropriately negotiated. Also checked for interface error counters on the switch, there was none. Checked the WLC logs too, there were no logs on issues with the interfaces or auto-negotiation.

  • Ridiculous Connection Speeds

    Hi All,
    Following issues with line noise which have gone since removing the front plate from my OpenReach master socket and plugging directly in there, I now have an issue with really poor latency and speeds. I don't want to have to restart the HH3 as it's been up for over 3 days now (a record) which is strange as the HH3 shows uptime of 2days 4hrs - last IP change was 26/4 15:33.

    Do the line stats make any sense? Could this be a HH3 issue? Am I just expecting too much?
    Can anybody point me in a direction that will help me solve this as this has been a rather black comedy since the install on 4/4 - especially as I have to pay for this.
    Cheers,

    Hi klinkenhoff,
    Your IP Profile would be about 2mbps as it's 88.2% of your current connection speed which was 2.212 Mbps from your last set of adsl stats.
    Your throughput speed is the speed you experience when using the Internet and is also the speed which speed test websites use.
    Your throughput speed will be slightly slower than your IP Profile and can be effected by how you connect to your router/home hub such as Wifi or Ethernet and also network traffic and congestion.
    So:
    1) Your connection speed is the speed which your homehub/router and the local exchange is connected at.
    2) Your IP Profile is a speed limit applied to your broadband service by the local exchange. Its purpose is to ensure the exchange doesn't 'overload' your broadband service by sending more data down your phone line than it (or your BT Home Hub, router or modem) can physically handle. 
    As your on ADSL2+ your IP Profile will always be 88.2% of your connection speed.
    3) Your throughput speed is the speed you experience when using the Internet and is also the speed which speed test websites show, it can be effected by how you connect to your router/home hub such as Wifi or Ethernet and also network traffic and congestion
    Hope that makes sense.
    Cheers
    I'm no expert, so please correct me if I'm wrong

  • Very slow connection speed, after phone line probl...

    My catalogue of problems starts about a month ago. The phone line developed heavy interference and my Broadband connection kept dropping. This was diagnosed as being a fault with my HH 1.5. BT duly sent me a replacement HH3 which arrived about 3 days later. I installed the new hub, changed all the wiring and the filters for the new kit that came with the hub only to discover that the interference on the phone line was now even worse. It was so bad that at times you could not even hear what was being said on the other end of the phone, so an engineer visit was arranged.
    A week later a BT engineer came and checked the line, sure enough there was a second problem and all the wiring from my house to the nearest telephone pole had to be replaced.
    These problems had had a catastrophic effect on my connection speed and profile (I was getting about 500 kbps both up and down stream), so I dutifully reset the hub after the engineer had finished and waited for the line to stabilise.
    14 days later and the upload speed had doubled, but the download speed is still unchanged at 570 kbps, about half the current upload speed. The line was a bit temperamental for the first few days but I have been able to maintain a solid connection for the last 4 days, current stats are as follows:

  • Connection speed slowed to a crawl!

    I have posted before about the issue with slow connection speeds.  Well the issue has once more reared its head after a reasonable period of achieving decent speed considering distance from the exchange etc.
    Today the connection virtually unusable and when I checked the ADSL line stats downstream had dropped from over 4MBps to under 1 the noise margin had increased to 19dB from around 6dB.  I ran a quiet line test which proved ok
    My connection is via an extension and has been this way for a good number of years.  AFAIK there are no problems with the extension after checking filters etc. nothing has changed since installation, but obviously cannot rule out completely although cannot see why a sudden change. 
    I turned off the home hub and waited for a minute then back on again.  The comparison below shows changes to original figures only.

    Today I have had a visit from an engineer and my faulty extension(?) has been replaced as has the original BT master socket with a BT ADSL v1.0 filter.
    The interesting thing for me was that the engineer asked if we had Sky HD which I must admit I did not think could be an issue but when disconnected the slow speed I had been experiencing increased to Downstream 2.688Mbps, Upstream 448Kbps.  So obviously Sky is taking some bandwidth?
    After the new extension and ADSL faceplate the downstream/upstream speed have remained the same (as when Sky disconnected).  I am hoping that speeds will improve over the next few days but was informed that it is possible due to previous issues that the speed has been throttled which may mean it will not recover without me contacting BT directly.  If this is the case how long should I wait?

  • Loss of connection

    Today i lost connection to the internet, the broadband light was flashing orange. I reset the Modem and the Hub and the Hub broadband light returned to blue. But my desktop pc had a big red cross in the bottom right hand corner over the network icon. I had disconnected the ethernet cables in the back of the hub, but they were all connected properly. When i looked at the back of my pc the end on the connection end did seem a little dodgy. So i recrimped a new end on and that did appear to sort it. But on the desktop i cannot open hardly any web pages they are so slow, i can't do any speed tests as i get timed out out. 
    I have hooked up my laptop using the same ethernet cable and everything is perfect, speeds test are all as they should be.
    It seems the issue lies with my desktop pc, but everything was working perfectly ok before the loss of connection, i have tried severeal browsers and none of them seem to want to respond very well at all.  
    Has anybody got any suggestions or solutions please???

    Hi Damian99,
    Thanks for posting. It sounds like the problem could be with your PC as it’s connecting via the laptop. Has anything changed since the connection dropped? Have you checked the Ethernet socket as opposed to the cable? Let us know how you get on.
    Cheers

  • Frequent loss of connection with HH5

    I upgraded to infinity and got a HH5 a few weeks ago. Initially it was great, stable and down load up to 26 Mbps. Now, I lose the connection several times each day and this evening it dropped the connection about 4 times in an hour. The speed now is down to 9 Mbps. Any ideas on what is wrong or what I can do?

    Thank you for your comments.
    Speed is not the problem, now up to 18000 in any case. It is loss of connection. I don't understand computers so not sure what information you requested. Here is most recent event log details if that would help.

  • Extremely poor connection speed plus the line keep...

    Hi
    I moved into a new build flat in Jan 2013, and had an outsourced engineer activating my phone line early Feb. When I first signed up to the service, the estimated connection speed was advertised to be 3-7 Mbps.
    It's been about 12 months since the line was activated, and I've been suffering from 2 main problems which were never resolved:
    1) Line dropping - the middle "Broadband" light of my BT homehub turns from blue to flashing yellow once every few hours every day. On a very bad day, it happens every 20-30 mins. I need to work from home sometimes and to connect to my company's VPN. The frequent disconnection of broadband has caused a huge amount of trouble in the last 12 months!
    2) Very slow broadband speed - the estimated connection speed has always been advertised to be 3-7 Mbps. In fact, in the first 2-3 months after the line was activated, the average speed was 3-4 Mbps, but since last April the speed has remained around 1-1.5 Mbps, or 2 Mbps on a good day.
    The speed seems to fluctuate a lot as well - I can tell from loading a YouTube video. Basically at all times it is impossible to load a 720p video properly. Turned it down to lower bit rates, it loads for a few seconds then stops loading at all. About a few seconds later, it continues to load again... so on and so forth.
    I used to be able to use LoveFilm/BBC iPlayer streamed to my TV in the first couple of months, but now there is no chance of doing it at all.
    With the combination of the 2 issues, I have complained to BT so many times but every time I was told that my connection speed was good, even though it is far less than the speed range I was advised when I first signed up. It has been extremely frustrating that it's almost the end of my contract but I still cannot get a stable broadband connection nor a reasonable speed that will load a YouTube video smoothly!
    Below is the stats I've got from a speed test and from the HomeHub. Tonight seems to be a less busy night, so I will post the stats from another time when the issues are really bad.
    The problem has been bothering me since I moved into this flat and I'm getting really desperate so any help is much appreciated!
    Many thanks,
    Will

    if you cannot access the master socket and hence the test socket you cannot eliminate line noise caused by the internal wiring and if engineer finds internal wiring the problem then you will get charged £130 for call out
    removing the bellwire is easy but really need to be the master as well - still all extensions will be a start  bellwire removal

  • Super Slow Connection speed

    Hi all, with any luck someone here will be able to offer some wisdom!
    Until recently my broadband has been faultless (well not bad anyway), in the last week or so it seems to have nosedived in terms of performance, and I am struggling to work out why. I have been through India, and I have my modem plugged into the test port of the master socket, here is wat things look like in the Hub Manager:

    The three errors are me pulling the cable out to rest the conenction. The massive FEC / CRC errors are a bug I think. Does anyone know about Loss of Framing and what 0dBm output power are?
    I ran the BT speedtest and got some truly terrible results, which said that my profile was 7000kbps, good, and my download was 146kbps, bad.
    Anyone know what might be causing my super slow connection? I disconnected all computers barring my laptop in case somethign was secretly thrashing the service, but it didnt help.
    Thanks in advance,
    Mark.

    I have similar problems. My connection was fine until about a week ago, when I started getting noise on my phone.
    This has now been fixed, but since then, my Broadband connection speed has dropped from around 2M to 135k. I had an engineer out this morning to check what had been fixed during the first engineer visit (to fix the phone) and once he'd finished, he tested in to the socket to find that he could get 7M speeds. However, since he's been gone, I've plugged my setup back in and still get speeds of 135k.
    I've tried removing phone connection so only router plugged in, I've changed filter to see if that was the issue - only things I've not yet tried because they are more hassle first off is trying another ADSL cable and/or a new router
    My Hub manager shows the following, but not sure if this helpful to anyone, or if anyone can point me in the right direction of other things to try, I'd be greatly appreciative.

  • Huge drop in broadband connection speed

    I've been with BT Broadband for a good five years or so. Around six months ago, I was getting a connection speed of around 8Mb/s. A few months ago, this dropped to being consistently around 1.9Mb/s, after a brief period where the broadband light on the router would turn amber and the connection would be lost until the router was reset, on a semi-regular basis. In the last few days, this problem has returned and I'm now getting a connection of around 0.17Mb/s.

    A quiet line test always seems fine.
    It's very frustrating. Streaming TV has gone from being no problem at all, to temperamental, to impossible.
    Any guidance would be very much appreciated.

  • Slow Connection speed at all times, with regular d...

    I would really appreciate any advice you have to offer! (P.s Connection time is so low because I recently connected the router to the test socket to see if there was a problem with my internal wiring)
    I've been experiencing a slow connection speed (even though the router is connected to the master socket) much slower than with my previous provider and a very intermittent service. The broadband connection seems to drop out every time the landline is in use and when using the landline you can hear a lot of static/crackling in the background.

    Hi and welcome to the forum.
    Have you tried another known working telephone into that test socket without an ADSL fiter.
    If you have done all that you will need to report to your comms provider, if its BT Retail you will need to call them on 0800 800 151 or 0330 123 4151 from a mobile phone.
    They will mention about charges but as long as you have done as suggested and you have not damaged any of the incoming wiring there "should" be no charge. when you phone do NOT mention broadband once any noise on your line is solved then your broadband will improve

    I will need to move the HH to reconnect it to the test socket, as I have moved it back to it's original position. The problem is that the master socket is in the hall, and the HH is in a spare bedroom along with a switch, a networked printer and a NAS and I don't have an ethernet cable to the hall.  This will also mean another restart. If I am going to do this, would it be a good idea to put the previous HH online as it was only changed when BT sent me a new one gratis, some time ago, so it should be OK.
    I suppose it would be better to put the existing one on the master and leave it for 3-5 day and see if it restarts. By the way, the bell wire is disconnected, and the extra filter is in place on the master socket, probably not needed as I disconneced the bell wire at the same time as fitting the bell wire filter. I did get an improvement when I fitted this, but it was over a year ago. 
    I will move the HH in the morning and see how it goes. If it restarts I will put the older HH in the master and see how that goes. I will take stats regularly and report back here.  Thanks again for help.
