    good morning:

      before I continue I want to thank you all for your kind help, well, I was able to get on-line again last night, I went into my modem and put in my username & password, it worked, but it was getting late, so I will try again tonight to install my router by following this last guide, so, I repeat, thanks for your help and I will keep posting with my progress.

    hello:

    I have dsl and is connected ith modem ZyXEL 645ME-A1, I wanted to hook up another computer & create a network , so I bought a linksys WRT54GC tried following the instruccions and just hook up modem to linksys to computer # 1 and popped in the disk but the installer keeps telling me that the linksys cant recognize the modem, I get internet ok without the linksys but i really need to find a way to make this work. perhaps there is a guide I could follow.

      all help will be greatly appreciated.  Thanks:    V1T1CO

    It's a wired connection. I'll have to give them a call and have them check it out. It's weird I've gotten higher speeds for awhile and then they just dropped off. If you can think of anything else let me know.

    Thanks

    Hello LB:

      I was getting similar speeds to yours with a 15/2 connection, it turned out to be my firewall & antivirus (I was using Mcafee) after getting rid of it and installing different antivirus & firewall my speeds more than doubled so it is now where it should be, .    just curious;,  "What are you using for firewall & a/v???"

    Well, I know that Norton will slow you down some, I tried it b4 settling for Antivir Guard & Sygate personal (free)

    this combination works better for me;.perhaps it is true that "some of the best things in life are free" :D

    This speeds are w/ Antivir-free & Sygate personal firewall all free and both running-/ good bye Mcafee (and all your probs) ..

    so if anyone is missing some speed look at Mcafee first.

    good morning all:

      wow, thanks to all for the suggestions and by the way, my fios pkg is:  15/2 Mbps so i apologize for the error, tell you what, I think I read 75% of all the posts in this forum :shock: . and something kept jumping out at me : (MCAFEE!!!!!!) - what I did is completely remove Mcafee and all its traces, (somewhat a difficult task because of how bloated they make this garbage) by the way, i had "viruscan9","personal firewall" and "quick clean" (all Mcafee products), then ran the test and this is what I got:

                      so as you can see , Mcafee was causing my nightmare. now I'm happy to report that with "AntiVir" and "Sygate personal" (FREE antivirus & firewall) my speeds held at 15+Mbps-  I hope that at the very least, my experience is valuable for the next person that have a similar problem.

                  Thank again to all and keep up the good work:

    by the way: the only tweak I did was go to netservices.verizon.net and did their auto optimize.    so I wonder if I could still benefit from tweaking  :haha:

    Hello to all:

                my name is Vic and Im new to this forum.I've been reading and searching all through your site and couldn't find an answer to my issue.

    Just got my FIOS installed yesterday morning, the FIOS package ss the 15/5-mbps- and as you can see in my scores, all I've been able to get is: -10/1.25 - the tech that installed the fios was getting about the same, but tried with his verizon laptop and it jumped to 14.1/4.25 mbps so he

    decided that it was my rig that needed some tweaking, well, followed the suggestions on the first sticky and tips on your main forum but improvement was minimal,(if any) , also had my settings "optimized" by verizon in their fios site. anyways , perhaps I,m missing something that may be obvious to some but not to me.

      thanks in advance for your help;  vitico66
