WRT160N V1 slow N Speeds , good g speeds

so i have a wrt160n v1 and the n speeds are horrible. very very slow. it works great on comps with a g card only but my brand new comp that has an n card that i paid extra for dont work at all hardly, its under 1mbps. so i went and bought a new wrt160n v3 the other day, hooke it up, configured it, and it works great on my new comp.
is there anyway i can get the v1 to work as good as the v3 ? there are no firmware updates for the v1 past 2008:-/ HELP ME!!!!!

i think the the router and my comp dont mix. when i secure it thats what caused the probs. the wap2 security i think cause when i removed it , it improved if i took the comp away from it. but i went out and bought the wrt320n tonite at walmart and its like WOAH. it works way better and speeds are constant and fast and idle speed is good. and when i speedtest it, its constant. im content with the new one . and the old one is i think just junk lol. cause it wolnt seem to work, its out of warranty so im screwed and had no choice
if u have any suggestions im open to any, i have 45 days to return the gigabit router.

WRT160N SLOW CONNECTION SPEED

I have slow connect speed when using the WRT160N. I have tried every thing, done dianogstics on connection, router, modem, thru three diffeant software, norton, windows, system machinics. when ising the router some days the speed is amost like using dial up
I use XP, on both a laptop desk top, up to date drivers, both cna use wifi or direct connection by cat 5e, 3 m of ram, a wimax internet server,,,,, (company called Bridge Maxx)
But when I stop using the router and connect directly to the modem no problem works fine,,,,, not sure what to do........ just need my wifi back,,,,so i cna work,

Whats the Version number of your Router, If you have having version2 router, then there is an knows issue with Version2 Router. Downgrading to Build 8 is generally accepted to correct these issues, however Linksys have indicated to several people they do not have the build 8 firmware to give to end users.
This is ONLY for WRT160N V2 routers. This firmware will not work on WRT160N V1.
You can find it at http://audipages.com/router/
Follow the dowload and firmware downgrade instructions on that page.
Once you upgrade the firmware of your router, you need to Reset your Router and Re-Configure all the settings on it back again. Once you do the settings on your router i think this should solve your problem.

WRT310N Playstation 3 Slow Download speed and general lag

Hey guys, I just recently bought the WRT310N and got both of my computers working with it. One is wired directly into the router, while the other is running off wireless. My Playstation 3 is able to connect to the router but I am getting an extremely slow connection speed.
Right now, both PC's get about 6.4-6.5 Mbps download speed while my Playstation is anywhere from 600 Kbs to 1.2 Mbps. I have plugged in my Playstation 3 directly into the modem and got a speed of 3.2 Mbps and was downloaded a demo very fast, but I do not recieve anywhere near those results when using it wireless.
Any advice? I have tried opening the ports, but that only seemed to slow it down. A couple of days ago I opened the ports specific to the game NHL 10 and for two days I was getting such a good speed in the game that it felt like I was playing offline, which was great! Then this morning, it just seemed do a complete 180. Now when I play the game I get an extreme amount of lag, and my other games like CoD4 get random lag spikes. Like, I'll be running and I get a lag spike which seems to happen fairly consistently every minute or so.
Any advice? Should I try opening the ports again or what?

I think you need to adjust the wireless settings of your Router, The wireless settings on your Router must have been setup to its default that's the reason you are receiving low signal strength on your PS3.
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
For Wireless Settings, please do the following : -
Click on the Wireless tab
- Here select manual configuration...Wireless Network mode should be mixed...
- Provide a unique name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box in order to differentiate your network from your neighbours network...
- Set the Radio Band to Standard-20MHz and change the Standard channel to 11-2.462GHz...Wireless SSID broadcast should be Enabled and then click on Save Settings...
Please make a note of Wireless Network Name (SSID) as this is the Network Identifier...
For Wireless Security : -
Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security...
Change the Wireless security mode to WPA, For Encryption, select TKIP...For Passphrase input your desired WPA Key. For example , MySecretKey , This will serve as your network key whenever you connect to your wireless network. Do NOT give this key to anyone and remember the key.
NOTE : Passphrase should be more that 8 characters...
Click on Advanced Wireless Settings
Change the Beacon Interval to 75 >>Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304, Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 >>Click on "Save Settings"...
Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect...

Hi,
I have had bt broadband opt3 for almost 3 months now and have always had a healthy 9mb+ connection, however have noticed it being very slow in the evening when I come home from work, I checked the speed last nite as iplayer was constantly freezing and was getting 1mb . A bit upset by this as I got bt broadband to play my ps3 online and to get faster speeds on my laptop, and I use these services mostly at nite.
I checked my speed this morning and was getting 11mb, is this normal or am I being capped I cant believe Id be going over my download limit. Can someone from bt get back to me on this?
Thanks
John

Yes Alison, I think I can see that now. I wouldnt mind if broadband was a bit slower at peak times, I know thats normal, but when I'm only getting 1mb when my max is 14mb, I just dont feel I'm getting what I pay for. And when it gets to the point where I cant watch iplayer without it stuttering everywhere and online games lagging on the ps3, this is certainly not what I'm paying for.
I was hoping one of the mods here would help me and check my line and see if there is any cap on the line and get it removed.
I really dont wanna phone India, I deal with them 5 days a week as is...
Think I will just send one of the mods an email to check my line and see if it is being capped or if somethings wrong.

You will never get decent speeds on Iplayer,
BT limit it because they want you to subscribe to their precious BT Vision service.
The only way you are guaranteed to get decent speeds on BT is to subscibe to BT Vision and also unlimited broadband.
Then you will get priority when you stream TV at your exchange unlike fighting it out with all the other broadband users as you currently are for the available bandwith.the more over subscribed your local exchange the worse it is

Hi John,
I can take a look at the network side of things for you, to see if there is anything I can do to help improve your speed during peak periods. Please could you drop me an email with your BT account details? Please also include a link to this thread. It would also be very helpful if you could run a few speed tests using www.speedtester.bt.com when you feel your Broadband is running slow. I can then check those results from here.
Thanks
Paddy

Well John i'll tell you what it is...
First of all welcome to BT and I hope you'll enjoy 18months of pain and suffer.
OK here it goes....
If you look at your contract, find a rule that says Fair Usage Policy.
Basically it states that BT will cap anyone that is abusing their lines.
However, it does not say what are the limits after which you are going to be capped for how long and at what times. (I'll come back to this later and explain)
If you ring 08007076044 I'm sure that someone will confirm my theory. As constant 1MBit between 6PM till 11/12 PM is actually FUP applied on to your account.
Ok time to explain my frustration about FUP.
Since I signed my contract with "lovely" BT for constant 4 months I had similar issue but it took me even longer to find out what is going on and how to deal with this problem (thanks to google).
FUP team states that if you exceed 100GB in a month (everyone will admit that these days 100GB is nothing when a single game for PS3/XBox360/PC sometimes is more than 5GB and 1080p film is about 12GB) will cap you for a month at peak times to outstanding and superfast 1Mbit (about 130-150KB/s).
I'be been watching my download and for few months never exceeded that 100GB in a month. Been ringing FUP team to verify when suddenly they told me that from (cant remember exactly) March FUP will apply only to accounts that are using Torrents and other P2P.
you won't believe how happy I was hearing that.... So i've started to download and next month guess what.... 1Mbit connection.
Really mad rang FUP team and asked them what on earth is going on. They confirmed that its only P2P and I've explained them that I only use Youtube, BBC iPlayer, Rapidshare, Steam and XBox Live, Beatport (just don't understand how ppl can use torrents and other P2P as they are just way to slow). So they were happy to take the cap off my broadband connection.
Next month same issue solved exactly the same way.
After that for consecutive few months I had no problem whatsoever until September where FUP Team said that there is no such thing and FUP applies to everyone.
So just want to say that BT is rubbish that can't keep their word.
I went to one of the sales advisor in the shopping centre and asked him how FUP works as it does not say in the contract "how, when, who and what".
So he said that policy is applied based on amount of files downloaded within that 100GB. So if I download e.g. 3x 50GB (although its 150GB altogether) files I wont be affected but 100x 1GB will put a cap on me.
I've been so curious if what he said was right and started to download 2x 60GB and guess what... Got frigging FUP placed on my account!!!.
I've got 2months left with them and will be extremely happy to cancel my contract, moreover, I will do everything in my power to sue them under EU Consumer Rights Law (that states that contract should be clear and fair to both sides) as Fair Usage Policy is one of those things that allows BT to do anything they want to their customers;
1. No clear explanation of what FUP is.
2. Does not states the amount of downloaded data required to have cap on the acount
3. Does not states for how long it will be applied
4. Does not states when it will be applied
If you look at e.g. Virgin Broadband everything is clearly written in nice and understandable way. It warns you at what times FUP will be applied under what circumstances and for how long. Isn't it what we all want to know??

@Mateusz I think I maybe a victim of this outragous stint BT have done. I have 2 XBOX 360's running on XBOX Live, 2 Desktop PCs connected to the web constantly, and 3 laptops, we have a torrent sharing running and World Of Warcraft on one of the PCs. All of this is shared across a 6 person family. How can a family where two members goto to college and university do their college ork, download application such as VB.net do their coursework and revise without the hassle of a **** connection. Seriously BT get your ******* head outta your **** and stop this ********, we are customers, we pay for what we are offered. When I signed up several years ago I could download everything on the net woithout infracions on my line being set in motion. You altered my contract without telling me. You will lose custom from this. Also you have ****** my wireless

You lot are lucky, We wish we could be capped to 1mbit. Our IP profile is capped to 500kbit because BT say the line isn't good enough for anything more. We are paying for option3 up to 8mbit and BT have said we must continue to pay for it for the remainder of the contract, or buy ourselves out of it early, the reason they give.... Up to 8mbit means up to 8mbit. If you dont get 8mbit then TOUGH LUCK SUCKERS!!
The outcome? We feel like we've been turned over by a dodgey second hand car salesman called BT. The internet deal he flogged us was a dog, a ringer, it wasn't cosher and certainly had a false MOT certificate.

Hi Amanda,
Why have you joined BT Option 3 when you can not get what BT can offer?
No pun intended but you are a bit of a sucker for paying high prices where other suppliers are cheaper and can provide what your line can support.

we moved house last october to this one, the connection was rubbish from the get-go, BT said the router was broken and we needed a new one, we said OK. That "OK" meant that we had entered into a new contract for option 3 same as out old one. The router wasn't broken, the new one didnt fix or improve the problem, we have since asked for a price reduction or compensation and been told "no". we are in contract and can pay to buy ourselves out of it if we like but otherwise we have to pay for option 3 and recieve fixed rate 500kb.

Hi Amanda,
I think you'll find that the Hold To Term rules have changed. BT are now unable to charge you for the account if you no longer require it. It is against OFCOM's rulings for a company to make more money out of you as a leaving customer than an existing one. However, You will need to pay for the connection charge (if that has not expired it's original differed contract) which is £40. A cancellation fee of £25 if you are simply cancelling and not migrating using a MAC key and for any hardware. The Routers are advertised at £88 and i would suggest that if they believed on to be faulty then that would be replaced under guarantee and not be put on a differed basis. I would check exactly what they say the are charging you and query this through OFCOM. http://www.ofcom.org.uk/

Months of impecable service form BT as an option 3 customer. (I've even recommended BT to people)
but
For the past 2 weeks peak traffic has murdered my connection.
I can get 14mbit off peak, and it used to drop to about 7-9 at peak times.
Now its down to 1-2mbit at peak times. (no i haven't breached FUP as I check my btinternet inbox for the 80GB warning)
I think its resonable to experience drop off but 90%!!!
BT advertising says fast speeds at peak times. less than 2mbit is not fast. (that the governments minimum standard!!!)
I don't know how to procede because when I'm experiencing these issues if I ring up I will end up waiting so long to speak to someone (because its peak time) the concection wiill be better again.
I can think of no recourse other than to approach trading standards...
Guarnetee me 5mbit at peak times (enough to stream HD iplayer) and I'd be happy
That is what BT vision customers are in essence are getting + what ever their PC is using.
Fair usage? what about Fair Supply.

How many thousands of Apple TV users have to scream their complaints before Apple will respond to the fury over the impossibly slow download speeds of movies bought through iTunes??????

How many thousands of Apple TV users have to scream their complaints before Apple will respond to the fury over the impossibly slow download speeds of movies bought through iTunes?

As jules says, your rate (currently at least) may be slow.
If it used to be good I wonder is your ISP is slowing ('throttling') your speed after you've used so many GB of a quota each day or month - check what they think you should be getting as a download speed.
While Apple's servers do occasionally play up, it's generally the ISP being slow not Apple.
If you're using Google's DNS servers that has caused issues for some.
Recommended speeds for near instant playback:
SD         2.5Mbps
720p      6 Mbps
1080p    8 Mbps
Is your speed test from somewhere like speedtest.net?
It might be helpful to post Mbps to ensure we/you are not confusing speeds by using different units to those measured.

Extreme slow upload speed in Dallas area

Hello
Something happened to my upload speed last Thursday, it has dropped considerably connecting to most servers making many sites very sluggish. I have the hardest time just attaching a file in Gmail and the gmail chat keeps saying 'unable to connect'. Using FTP for my work is almost impossible. It's takes me 5-10 tries to upload a file that's not even 50KB.
I've called Verizon tech support and went through different diagnostics and then they sent a new router, which still didn't help. Here's what I concluded so far:
It's not the router
It's not the computer since it happens on every machine
It's not the wiring since I can get good speed test connecting to some servers.
It's not the servers that i'm connecting to; everything works when i'm at work or on the phone.
I have 15/5, I've attached some speed test results.
Verizon's own speed test page even timed our during upload, which was stuck under 0.5 when it was about to finish.
Anyone else experiencing this? Verizon say my issue is currently with the engineers, but I have no idea how long that wait to be.
Thank you

Is there any Verizon representative that can escalate my issue?
Basically a tech came last Saturday and wasn't able to figure out what was wrong and left and closed my ticket. Whenever I call back now they're just telling me it's my computer, which is completely FALSE. All my 5-6 computer just doesn't happen to have slow upload speed of the sudden and require modification to RWin buffer as the suggested by the on-site tech. Verizon phone support bluntly told me they can't do anything further and would charge me for coming out again to replicate my issue.
Things the tech have already tried:
-Run Fios Optimizer multiple times on multiple computers.
-Replaced router
-Replaced ONT
-Rebooted PON card
Upload speed still sporadic, works perfect on some speedtests, but it's less than 0.5MB on many servers including Verizon's very own local speedtest. Gmail and any google site request is constantly slow. This site is slow and often times out. FTP to my own site is almost impossible if I want to upload a file that's bigger than 100kb.
I'm extremely frustrated.... There are reports of same exact issues in other thread, one seems to be fixed. Is there any way Verizon can look at that and apply it here?

Slow Sync Speed

Hi there,
I've read many posts on this forum and believe that my sync speed is quite low. I did a theoretical max speed test for my line attenuation at Kitz.co.uk and it said that I should have a speed in excess of 19000kbps with an ip profile of 16000kbps. I have been using a dodgy micro filter that disconnected the broadband everytime I recieved a phone call however I have purchased a new one and my router is running flawlessly with no dropouts. The noise margin is constantly at 6db. I believe that this may have flagged my line to be faulty and thus resolved a slower sync speed to compensate.
I disconnected the broadband roughly 8 days ago after it had been connected for about 15 days expecting to sync at a higher speed but infact the sync speed dropped by several hundres kbps.
Is there any way that I can sync at a higher speed?
Thanks in advance

I'm guessing that I am on ADSL as it says annex A? Does that mean that I can access any higher speeds as I'm not on ADSL2/+? or would forcing the modulation on the router help?

Very slow download speed with intermittent halts

Need some help.
I run Apple os/x latest version and have since yesterday begun to experience constant very slow download speeds.
I have rebooted the router and I have reset it. I have tested with wireless and wired into router. No real change.
The results are below and are pretty consistent no matter when or with what computer I test it with.
This is very frustrating and I would like to know if anyone has experienced this and if there is anything I can do before calling for service.
Thank you in advance.

I have just found out that I am not the only one have problem with BT broadband speed. Many people seem to have problem with their slow Internet speed due to the exchange problem. That’s good, because after 10 calls to BT, I still don’t know what the problem with my broadband. So let me tell you what the problem is.
My Internet speed suddenly got very slow (0.4mb) since the morning of 05/11/2010. I thought this was just temporary problem with the Internet speed and nothing should be worry about. The next day, I still face the same Internet speed (0.4mb) which is ridiculous when you pay 25 pound per month. Therefore I took action and made a call to BT customer service. I am sure I dial the right number to an “ENGLISH” company and somehow the line goes to INDIA. Strange~~~
The guy on the phone question me 10mins to check my identity and ask me lots of stupid question like have you try to connect your computer with wire instead of wireless or have you try to change the filter for my Internet connection etc. In the end, the India guys on the phone told me after 24hours my connection should back on the normal speed (5mb). Guess what, it didn't’t.
Clearly I was very angry and made a call back to “India” again to find out that was the problem with my Internet. This time the India guy on the phone seems to know the problem and very helpful. He told me that there was engineering work by my area on the “BT Infinity” which slows my broadband down and this work should be done by Friday 12/11/2010. The India guy even made a promise that he will call me back on Saturday morning 13/11/2010 to check the Internet speed.
Guess what, the India guy let me down. Not just he breaks his promise that he didn't’t call, my Internet speed is still 0.4mb. I was so frustrated at this point and made the call to BT for the third time. I went through the same procedure (10mins of ID check) and this time India guy told me there is a problem with my local exchanger and will get the engineer to fix it. Again, he promised me that he will solve the problem within 24hours.
Sadly the problem is still unsolved. I called BT again. The India woman on the phone told me this time she need to send an engineer to my house on Tuesday on 16/10/2010. At this point I was so angry that I said something very bad to the India woman (I am sorry) but still agree to wait for the engineer to come to my house all morning (missed all lectures).
Long story short, engineer comes and nothing has changed and today 20/11/2010, the engineer comes again to try and solve the problem with my Internet speed. What all his done is change my telephone filter and nothing has changed. Internet speed is still is still 0.4mb. I have been told by the India guy on the phone after the engineer visit that my line is been investigated by the engineers and the engineer will call me tomorrow 21/11/2010.
I just hope this time the problem can be solved otherwise I will cancelled the BT broadband and get my money back for this month’s broadband usages.
PS if they charge me any money for the engineer visit, I will make sure who ever pickups my complain call to feel suffer

Slow DSL speed

Hi,
I've had a problem with slow DSL for over a year. Now it's become even worse. My computer is connected to the internet directly through a modem (I had to disconnect my router a long time ago, because of the speed), which is Westell 2110, B90-210015-04 (rev.F software). I ran a diagnostic for the modem, and this is what I got (sorry I coudn't insert a picture directly):
http://s180.photobucket.com/albums/x110/Brimruk_91/?action=view&current=1212.jpg
FEC Errors numbers are growing with time. My understanding is that the Noise Margin number also doesn't look so good. And I am not even talking about the Data Rate.
Considering these test results, as well as the fact, that on a rainy day my Internet speed is close to zero, I am blaming all of this on Verizon. Of course, I've called their Customer Service and got the typical advice about checking my computer for viruses and trojans (my computer runs McAfee soft and is updated regularly), and resetting the modem (didn't help at all).
Now, a Verizon tech is coming to my house Tuesday morning. Any suggestions on how can I prove to him that the slow Internet speed is not a problem on MY end of the line, but theirs?
Thank you!

I was experiencing slow downloading speeds

I was experiencing slow downloading speeds(13.68Mbps) so I called my ISP. The ISP tech asked me to disconnect the cable from the airport express & plug the cable directly into the iMac. When I ran the speed test again I got 40.34Mbps download speed. The tech said that was proof that the problem was with the Airport Express & not the modem. However, now I do not have WiFi. And now I am only getting an amber light on the Airport Express. Any suggestions on how to have WiFi without slowing downloading speeds? Note: Downloading speeds were good until this last week. Please help!

Hiya
Airport Express model 802.11 Version 7.6.4
Does it have two ethernet ports on it?? or just one?
You suggest that I replace the Airport Express with an Airport Extreme: I do have an Airport Extreme in another room by our TV & Blu Ray to enable Netflix movies. A Mac Store technician set up the wireless system that way in 2010. Can I use 2 Airport Extremes instead?
Yes, that is no problem. I am guessing the Extreme is linking by wireless?? Or do you have ethernet between the Extreme and Express?
I am afraid of suggesting this, but I would consider just swapping the roles.. put the extreme on the modem.. and the express on the TV and bluray player.. and it will probably work fine.
What are speeds like to the Extreme on the TV? Does netflix play properly?
If you shut down the Extreme, does the speed get better on the computer?
Are you suggesting that the modem should be bypassed and the Express should be connected to the Mac by ethernet?
Not exactly.. you should already have an ethernet from modem to the express.. can you plug another ethernet express to the Mac.. assuming your Express has two ethernet and not just one.
"Try manually setting channels and forcing bands with different name." : I do not have any idea of how to do this.
Try the simple alternatives above. We can consider this as well if those don't work.
Do you have someone you could call easily and cheaply to try and sort the problems??
Otherwise buying a new AE is actually probably just as cheap as getting a technician in to look at it. Not that new equipment wrongly setup will work any better than old equipment wrongly setup.. but you have a month of free phone support from apple when you buy it new.

Slow internet speeds and dropping connection

hello, I am making this post on behalf of my dad, for a good few months (5-6 maybe even longer) we have been experiencing slow internet speeds and a dropping connection when ever the phone is picked up. when an incoming call is answered some or all devices connected to the internet drop out for a second then come back online, the connection does not completly disapear but causes any voice chat, streaming or gaming to disconect. We have BT wireless phones (not sure what exact type) which we have had for a few years. they are connected through an ADSL filter which as far i can remember has been there for years. We have a netgear DG834GT router which has also been there for a few years. I went onto its settings and got this information, not sure if its usefull or not.

also while i was doing that i did i quiet line test and both myself and my brother listened to it and agreed that there was buzzing/static

Slow Internet Speed

For the last 2 months I have had a problem with slow broadband speed. I have tried everything to fix it here... I have the Home Hub plugged into the master socket. I have tried a different router, different cables nothing I do changes the speed.
We have had two BT Open Reach engineers come to our house to try and solve the problem no ones knows what the problem is. When they do the test everything passes. The sync speed is around 5 Mbps but we get no where near that. They rest my profile and still no difference in speed.
It's not been working since July... Each day they ring us a say they run tests.. The fault has been put though to our engineering team... Nothing changes though.

Slow download speed

Trying to download Adobe Standard and experiencing extremely slow download speeds. My internet connect is good, and I've tried restarting. nothing seems to be working.

Out of curiosity I just downloaded Acrobat XI Standard from http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html
The download completed within less than 3 minutes, and I am 10,000km away from the Adobe download servers, at the other side of the Pacific ocean.

Very slow download speed on ipad 2

Okay folks I need your help. I have just installed an Airport Extreme (newest model) wirless router and a new Motorola Sufboard modem and my interenet download speed is pretty good on the pc (23-25 Mbps). However, when I run the speed test on my ipad 2 it is pathetic (.14 - .18 Mbps). My iphone 4 is getting about the same download speed as well. I have reset all devices, tried forgetting the network and then signing on again, but nothing helps. What could be causing the slow download speed on the Apple products?

Okay I got it. I went into the Airport Utility and changed the channel selection from automatic to manual and then I changed the channel to something different. There are a lot of house in my neigborhood and I guess the default channel 6 was just way over crowded. Just did another test on my iphone4 and got a download speed of 18.33 Mbps. The ipad2 yielded a new speed of 24.24 Mbps. Much better now. Thanks!
