  1. Good point Damon, My CPU is an Intel Pent 4 670 Dual core and the hard drive is a 312 GB SCSI not sure of the maker. I've also ran the test here and below are the results. Not quite as fast as what Time Warner shows or Speakeasy but still faster than before. Lamont ]https://testmy.net/stats/id-98MLVGSTJ]
  2. Hey Zalt, Thanks for the reply. Just an update I went ahead and got a netgear WNDR3700 at Radio Shack for $179.00. Hooked up everything worked right out of the box. Tested my main computer D/L speed at Time Warner 29 to 30 megs - upload 1.8 to 1.9. Tested the other systems and same results. Apparently the BESFR41 V2 just couldn't handle the speeds, which is not surprising since it is quite old and when it came out those kind of speeds didn't exist. At any rate I am a happy camper course I'm still thinking about hooking up the Linksys/Cisco SRW2016, 16 port gigabit switch just to get rid of all the clutter and simplify my cabeling. Lamont
  3. I've had Time Warner (RR) for years and Comcast b/4 that. Although I should have the highest speed package I've consistently been in the 6 meg to 4 meg d/l speed. Upload is on point at 1.6 to 1.8 megs. I called support and they agreed something is wrong but at the time I wasn't at my computer. Later that evening I decided to do some research and hooked my computer directly into the modem bypassing the router. Tested my speed on Time Warner's site and low and behold my d/l was 28 to 30 megs so obviously it's the router. It is a BESFR41 V2 and I have a feeling it's really outdated and probably not able to keep up. Just for your info here are my network specs: Computer one: Dell XPS 700 - Win Ult 7 32 bit - 4 Gigs Ram - Nvidia dual graphics running 3 monitors Computer two: Dell Inspirion desktop - Win XP SR3 - 2 Gigs Ram - Nvidia graphics Computer three: Dell Inspirion laptop 6000 - Win XP SR3 - 2 Gigs Ram - onboard graphics Computer four: Dell Server 6000 - Win server 2003 - 4 Gigs Ram - graphics unk - Note: This was from my old job that closed I asked for the server and got it. Connection five: Direct TV video on demand All of this is hard wired (I don't do wireless) Sorry for such a long post but I'm needing some advice on the router upgrade. Thanks all Lamont
  4. Well this is wierd but I just tried again, start menu "AI Roboform" click, then click "edit passcards" it opens but asks for the master password before allowing any other operation. I really don't know why it is now working correctly. I have Windows 7 Ultimate and Roboform Pro. Anyway check for an update and try again. It really is a great program.
  5. Yes, it's the same for me and that is a definite flaw in the program. If it really concerns you, you can always delete the program from your PC and just use the online or flash drive option.
  6. I use it as well and I guess the object is to secure your system with a password so only you have access to it. I also have the mobile version which then you don't have to have it on your hard drive. One more option is the online version which allows you to access your information from any computer anywhere. It seems to be very secure in that your first have to logon with a userid and password, then you have to enter your master password to actually use or view the information. Porkfat rules
