Very bad changes in connection speed

My broadband speed is so up n down its driving my family mad. Who ever gety on the internet first block everybody off, when i came off AOL, BT told me you won't have that sort of problem. Just now i am running at 1.7mb but other times i am down to 0.6 can anyone help with this. we run 2x xbox and a ipad. thannks for your time

welcome to the BT community forum where customers help customers and only BT employees are the forum mods
in order for the forum members to help please can you post the adsl stats from your router (unless HH4)may need to 'show detail' to get all stats (if hub enter 192.168.1.254 in your browser and navigate to adsl or use a-z, if netgear enter 192.168.0.1) and run btspeedtester (MAC users may have problems). when first test completes then run diagnostic test and post the results .
are you connected directly via a filter to the NTE5 master or test socket or to somewhere else? Is the master the only phone socket in your home?
Have you tried the quiet line test? - dial 17070 option 2 - should hear nothing - best done with a corded phone. if cordless phone you may hear a 'dull hum' which is normal
Someone may then be able to offer help/assistance/suggestions to your problem

Save for Web: change default connection speed

I've checked my Photoshop book, the online help, the knowledgebase and done a forum search. I may be using the wrong keywords.
When I go to Save for Web and Devices and I look at the optimized, two-up view or four-up views, down in the optimization info area in the lower left hand side of the window, how do I change the default speed from 28.8 to something else? In CS2 there was a way to change this, and now I can't for the life of me figure out how to do it in CS3.
Can anyone please help? Thank you in advance.
Photoshop CS3, OS 10.5.5, MacPro, 4G RAM

Theresa, just to clarify for the benefit of others reading this thread in the future,
if I recall correctly, those settings
DO NOT affect the file at all, they're there for the only purpose of showing you how long the file will take to open at each of the indicated connection steps so that you can choose an appropriate size for the file.
The "default" setting is, therefore, only relevant to the extent that you may want to see that information at a given connection speed every time you save a file without having to click on the contextual menu.

EA4500 - Connection Speed

Got the EA4500 & very excited, but the connection speed drops significantly when 2 machines are on web in same room. Tips?

There are four (4) reasons why the wireless connection between your Linksys router and your devices such as computers, laptops is intermittent or is experiencing a dropping speed. These are:
• MTU Size
• Frequency interference from other wireless devices
• Low signal quality received from your wireless router
• Router’s firmware needs an upgrade
Frequent wireless speed can be resolved by doing the following:
i. Adjusting the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) size
ii. Reducing Wireless Interference
iii. Customizing the Wireless Settings of the Router
iv. Updating the Firmware of the Router
Here is the link for resolving dropping wireless speed: http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?vw=1&docid=172c1dae41534ddd818c560b60c7c230_4029.xml&pid=80&r...

Fios Internet connection is very bad! Please help!

Hello,
I play an online game called Final Fantasy XIV. I use a program called WTFast in order to have a solid gaming experience, one without or very little lag or disconnects.
Recently, within the last 3-4months, I have noticed I get EXTREME lag and DISCONNECTS. I contacted WTFast with a tracert that they analyzed, and here is their response:
"Your internet connection is very bad. There is a "plateau" spike. This will cause WTFast to spike as well, and for such a long "spike" it is not surprising that the connection was dropped.
The previous report showed a very unstable internet connection as well (the one where you got a 30 second freeze).
Present the same reports you sent to us to your ISP (Verizon FIOS) and ask them to try to make their connection better. The report will help them see the quality of the current connection."
Here is the information in the more readable form (except for the last four as I figured you would probably get the idea by then). Yes, 4 shows 100% packet loss, so the connection dropped then. Also, in 5 the standard deviation is high (16.35 ms) which indicates a huge fluctuation in the signal. The flux column also shows large numbers, which indicates a large variance in the signal speed. Finally, there are a lot of hops just within the ISP, ie rows 2-8, and all this data is for the ISP itself, not the WTFast connection. In fact, that connection is the last one, and there you can see good numbers. Hope this helps.

I did a tracert from my computer to sites like MSN.com; Verizon.com etc, and EVERY SINGLE 4 shows a 100% loss. I did the same tracert from my computer at work that uses a different IP provider, and those same sites show a response from 4.
Can anyone help me out with this please! Thank you for reading!

Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

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:

There is only one active socket in the house, and the hub has been running from the test socket for the last week.

The Hub is connected to the test socket. Disconnecting the ADSL feed to the hub has had no real effect (The upload speed increased marginaly but still no change to the download speed). Reran speedtest too, the new stats are:

Help : very slow connection speed with AEBS and iMac

I connect to the internet using my newly purchased AEBS. I have a MacBook and an 24" iMac ( purchased in Nov 2007). My iMac showed very slow connecting speed of <1 MB/s download; with my MacBook placed just 1 foot from my iMac, the MacBook showed an amazing download speed of 20MB/s. If i connect the iMac to the AEBS using ethernet cable, it can get a very high speed.
So, where is the problem??
I am new to wireless, please help. I use iMac more than my MacBook at home.
Actually, i did not touch the any of the advance setting of the AEBS.

You know, I am experiencing the same problem. My wife's PC and iPhone are blazing fast, but my MacBook is accessing the internet at about dial-up speeds. Very frustrating and I haven't yet found the culprit.
Anyone???

We lost alot of speed, I started tech support with plusnet who after a week, found out there was a fault with the line and was gonna get BT to look into this.
But midway, we decided to change providers to BT, since our phone line is through BT, easier to have everything under 1 roof as they say.
Having spoken to the Sales agent, and agreeing the migration, I was forwarded to tech support in the UK where I told him about the problems so they was aware of this before we moved.
After speaking to him, it was agreed that after migration, I would wait
1 month, for the line to stable, before any support can begin. Which is fair enough.
Month later, speeds didn’t improve, my speed was ranging from 2.2-3mb, 2mb short from the download speed I was getting.
13th August - I rang support in India, followed his instructions, changed modems, splitter, etc. Then he told me to take the faceplate out and put the modem in the test socket, which I followed. I did mention the road words, and that’s when the problem started, but he was convinced it was a problem with my end. And said he will ring me back after 2 days.
15th - the received the phone call back - According to him, the line was stronger. But I mentioned to him there was no speed increase, it was still slower. Tried different modems, listened to his excuses and having to listen to him explain how a broadband works (btw im a computer engineer, so I already know), I just indulged him" I just said, what ever makes you happy, lets do it. I know what the problem is, just do your checks and get it sorted". So we decided to leave the modem in the test plate for another 4 days.
19th - I received another call, asking me to do a speed test, the speeds came back the same. After 30 mins going though the same checks, I was told I will get a phone call back in 2 days time.
21st - I got a call from a level 2 tech - saying my IP profile is low, it will be reset but will take 4-5 days to settle, leave the modem on, etc. I still explained the problem first occurred when we had road works and digging near the cabinet. But nope, they are determined it’s my internal fault. So I followed more instructions. My modem is untouched, in the test socket, and 4 days into the profile reset, no difference. Well upload speed has gone down lol.
Tomorrow I will ring them, and let’s see what happens. I am at a point where, I am regretting moving to BT. plusnet support was really good uk based. But I have faith this will get solved.
Oh ye also
23rd around 16:31 - I got a phone call from a lady from India, pretending to be BT. She knew I had speed issues and a BT line, and customer services had contacted me. When she said "Sir, your computer is sending out viruses and has caused damage to some servers. I require a small payment and wanted me to open a link she emails me so she can access my computer to fix it"
I smelled a scam, I told her, that I was tracing the call, that I was an engineer and im going to contact the police, where she hung up immediately.
However that made me wonder, how did she know I was having a Speed problem, that I was in contact with BT and I had a BT broadband?
Speedtest done today
Download speedachieved during the test was - 2.98 Mbps
For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 1.2 Mbps-4 Mbps.
IP Profile for your line is - 3.08 Mbps
Anyways
Any suggestions how my line can be sorted, much appreciated.
I shall keep you informed, as I will get another call from the tech support tomorrow.
Cheers
Hiren
P.S - most roads in my area already has infinity, but not my road, which is annoying as hell. I can walk from my door, 2 min walk and that house has infinity lol

Thanks for the swift reply, I have been looking online and a loose plug seems to be somewhat of an issue with many, I hope mine is actually a problem and not what others are experiencing. It's taken me this long to even reach out for the simple fact I HATE being a complainer but this is just horrible.
Do you have an iPad 3 as well? And is yours not experiencing any issues close to mine?
Thanks again!

Very bad skype connection.

Very bad. Recently, skype has been very bad between me and my girlfriend. We just can't here each other. It says the internet is bad but we both have strong internet and it has never done this before.

Enable UpNP on both ends. Also use the call > show technical info, to troubleshoot the connection (packet loss, roundtrip etc).
If on WLAN, use cabled connection to verify any issues.

Bad connection speed - Tried everything

Hi,
I currently have BT Total BB. Based on the BT website, my speed should be 6mb. Based on various websites i have seen and based on my line stats, i should be recieving 8mb.
My line only connects at 2/3mb's at most. I have brought new filters, new modem and run the router of the test socket.
Anything else you can think of that could be the problem?
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The fastest my modem it will connect at (ever) has been 3mb and most of the time 2.5mb. Based on what ive read and seen, i believe it should be much faster than this, somewhere around 8mb+ (based on line distance and line figures) and 6mb from BT Checker.
Please let me know what your thoughts are.

Very strange internet connection speed issue,

Good Evening all.
I have a strange issue. I got hooked up with a new ISP a few weeks ago and since that time I have had very slow PC connection speeds. I have done speed tests, and I get between 16 and 17mbps down, but the PC runs and acts like I am getting 4 to 5mbps. I have a Compaq Presario running Windows Vista Home Premium. Service Pack 2. There is 3 gig of ram and a 3ghz processor, with a 32 bit OS.
Here is how the setup looks. The netgear modem is plugged into a regular phone jack and then goes through a router and then it is hardwired to the PC. If I wire the PC direcly to the modem instead of going through the router, I get the same mbps no matter what. Between 16 and 17.
The wierd thing is that I can watch a movie on Netflix through my Wii with no issues. This is strange to me because I would figure there to be more issues with wireless connections rather than wired connections.
I have a netgear modem and a netgear router.
I am almost wondering if my PC is not processing the incoming speed correctly. I don't know if this is correct, because I used to have Xfinity internet before this new internet and had absolutely no problems. BTW my new ISP is called Edge Networks. The boast speeds up to 30mbps. I know that 16 to 17 is pretty good, I just do not know why It seems like I am not getting anywhere near that.
While on the subject, I also have another PC that I have gotten a USB adapter and am using wireless to access the internet. This PC gets 5 to 6mbps down. It is a Compaq running Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1. It has 3 gig ram and a 64 bit OS with a 2.3ghz processor.
I do not have a clue why I have such slow inernet page loading speeds, other than the possibility that my PC's are just severly outdated.
Can anyone help explain this issue?

Evadfa, welcome to the forum.
I suggest contacting your ISP for help with the problem. They should be able to help you since they know their product better than anyone. I don't believe that it is a computer problem, since it is happening on two separate computers.

WRT54G Very Slow connection speeds away from the router

I have installed my router in the living room. The connection speed is perfect in the living and dinning area , as we move away from the router to the inner rooms (bedrooms) the signal strength remains fine (very good) but slowly the internet speed drops untill it stops. The signal strenght still shows as very good. Doing a "repair" - switch off and "switch on" - on the laptops wirelss adapter brings back the connection speed for a while before it falls off again.
Any suggestions for this prob please!!!

Make sure that the firmware on the router is up to date. If not then download the Firmware from the Linksys web site. Connect the computer to the router with the Ethernet cable. Open the setup page of the router. Got o Administration tab and click on firmware upgrade sub tab. Upgrade the latest firmware on the router.
After upgrading the firmware, it is recommended that you should reset the router and reconfigure the router.

Very bad changes in connection speed
