Aeonin Posted January 25, 2008 CID Share Posted January 25, 2008 Hello everyone, I've been lurking around these forums and this site for a while now. And I usually browse the forums if I have a problem. Most of the time I find an answer, but this time my father's computer is having a large issue. His internet will frequently grind to a halt, with near to no movement. I power cycle some of the stuff on the way to his comp, and it helps - for a while. Then whenever I'm gone, I always get called back since they say its slow again. My set up is Comcast Cable Modem -> Wireless D-Link Router -> Vonage/Motorola Adapter -> Vonage/Motorola Adapter 2 -> Computer. I'm using the web through the wireless router and I don't have any speed problems. Also whenever I use the speed test here on that computer, sometimes it will simply not finish and just get stuck on a page. We've got a Comcast guy to come over, and he fixed some cables and such, but it didn't help. Any help from you guys would be awesome. Thanks in advance, M.Bach Oh and the turtles move faster is what my father said to the Comcast guys over the phone. Not my words. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aeonin Posted January 25, 2008 Author CID Share Posted January 25, 2008 I'm sorry to keep replying to my own thread, but is there any more information anyone needs? Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you very much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nanobot Posted January 26, 2008 CID Share Posted January 26, 2008 It is probably your D-Link router. I use one and have the same problem occasionally. 2 suggestions: 1. Double click the wireless internet icon. click properties. uncheck QOS packet shceduler. 2. Update firmware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeonin Posted January 26, 2008 Author CID Share Posted January 26, 2008 Thank you for replying. I've done both of those things and it still lags quite a bit. Wasn't able to see my results after the testmy.net test (it got stuck loading it). My DI-624 is also at the latest firmware version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peepnklown Posted January 27, 2008 CID Share Posted January 27, 2008 This is why I use a wired router only; wireless seems to be great for months then gives you problems then again great (it play with your emotions, eh?). Have you played with the router channels? TRY I would save your router settings; because you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aeonin Posted January 27, 2008 Author CID Share Posted January 27, 2008 It's revision C with Ver. 2.76 firmware. Also I will try some of that other stuff. Plus I have to note, I'm the one getting internet wireless, and I'm not having any problems. He's hardwired and having problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
