Hm... the link doesn't seem to work but i'm pretty sure i will find 1.51. I had... all the firmwares since 1.43... including 1.51. I don't remember if my problems disappeared then... but another try of 1.51 doesn't hurt Btw... i'm from romania and i've search, initially, on google, information on romanian forums. nothing found... Another thing is that my router too looks like the last image posted by you (so it DOESN'T look like the image present on edimax official page) L.E. Should i try the Philippine Version? ) (the last is v1.51)

I'm sorry if i misled you. Let's talk about from now on only in terms of IPs released/used. It doesn't matter if i connect the laptop or the desktop first. When a second IP is reqested the bandwidth is limited. You can imagine every possible situation. If you can LOG all the IPs released since the router powered UP... format that LOG file like this >> 192.168.2.101 192.168.2.101 192.168.2.102 192.168.2.101 192.168.2.102 ... Read the first line with the IP. Remember it as a String. IF when reading the next lines the comparison between the read String and the remembered String returns FALSE (or something else than 0 (zero)) Then Limit Speed It is that simple Regarding the config. You want to post it here, or i misunderstood ?

You are suggesting that someone is intercepting my packets... acting as a proxy between me and the world? The possibility of this happening is extremely low. Imagine that the firmware of the device has to be corrupted (this is what you are suggesting?) On my laptop i had numerous windows and linux installs and on my desktop i have linux for almost an year (and before i had windows xp installed). I have a "basic" know how regarding software maintenance. I'm pretty sure that nothing suspicious is running on my systems deviating my packets and nothing could survive the re-installs So... the only thing left to think about is the router itself. Anyway... i will do some tests tomorrow. Btw... i already said that i have the latest firmware and i'm also sure that i have download it from the official edimax website. L.E The image below shows a traceroute to the ip you've mentioned earlier. The left command window shows the trace before the restart (limited speed; i used both the wireless card and the wired card at some point) and the right cmd windows shows the trace after restart. >> http://img694.imageshack.us/my.php?image=11092009000801.jpg <<

I configured the IPs statically from the router , not from my PC (look at the image posted --> http://img294.imageshack.us/my.php?image=11072009203959.jpg ). I need the computer to be able to connect at work and in public places, so DHCP is needed Hm... regarding the learning part. I also prefer to find solutions and changing the device is not a solution. Believe me... i have tried all the possibilities and nothing. Same behavior... So... when i will have money i will buy a router that supports custom firmware (most probably based on UNIX). This is what you where talking about . I have done my homework a long time ago ) So... ARE YOU sure that other routers don't have the above described issues ?

No offense taken for any of your comments or questions. In fact... i have already set up 2 IP addresses to be statically allocated taking into account the MAC address. I'm using 2 machines: 1 is a Laptop and the other is a Desktop. The Desktop is connected through a wire. The Laptop is the machine i'm using the most. I'm using the wired connection in a part of my house where the Signal from my router is low and the wireless if i prefer another spot. So... imagine a very possible situation: i'm browsing the net on my laptop using the wire (wireless card disabled) and i want to change my location. I unplug the cable and i press the "enable/disable wireless" button. Now i'm connected through the wireless card The two ips in this picture >> http://img294.imageshack.us/my.php?image=11072009203959.jpg << are set to the 2 network cards on my laptop. So... if the desktop connects he will receive the IP 192.168.2.100. If the laptop connects the ip will be *.*.*.101 or *.*.*.102 The ipconfig doesn't show any relevant information...

I have Ubuntu (linux) on my Desktop and the speed is limited as well... About the wires... i'm pretty sure that they have a correct configuration. And... if Not... the problem should not persist if all the cables are unplugged and i'm connected only through one network card... a wireless one I think i lost hope a long time ago. I'm pretty sure the router is stupid and not me. By posting here I especially wanted to know if this is a Normal behavior for a router: to automatically limit the speed if more than one device is connected. This is not the case in witch all N computers receive data at the same time and the speed for every computer is equal to (maxSpeedSetByISP / N)... . If you didn't know that this is normal and you don't think that over 90% of the routers out there act like mine... maybe i will purchase a new one. Oh... but not a Edimax router. I think it is a firmware problem

This router was new and DEFAULT the ips start from 192.168.2.100 I know what every setting does for my router and nothing should make him act like this QOS is disabled default and i know it is disabled now... I'm using this router with 2 computers. But... most of the time only one is connected. Hm... but it doesn't matter. Once a second IP is "released" by the router the speed is limited.

Hi, I own a wireless router... Edimax br-6204wg. Latest firmware installed (1.61) Short description Power UP the device The router sends the password and user to my internet provider and receives an IP. Now i'm connected to the internet (PPPoE). It remains connected until i shutdown the router or reset it. So... it is set to be always connected. pc_1 connects to the router. pc_1 receives the ip 192.168.2.100. TEST the speed of my internet connection on pc_1. Result... something like 40 Mb/s download and 3 Mb/s upload pc_2 connects to the router pc_2 receives the ip 192.168.2.101. TEST the speed of my internet connection on pc_1 or pc_2. Result... something like 8 Mb/s download and 1.3 Mb/s upload The limited speed remains like this until i restart the router. The be able to use the full speed i have to be sure that no more than 1 computer was connected EVER to the router. It doesn't matter if i disconnect pc_2 or pc_1 or if i connect more computers. The limits remain . Any ideas why this happens?
