DJVageli Posted May 9, 2005 CID Share Posted May 9, 2005 During the past two months I have gotten a problem with my LAN and will like to know if anyone can help or might know what the problem might be.Three months ago when I would transfer a file from my PC to my laptop,it would trnasfer at a rate of 3000-4000KB/s and now during the past two months it only goes at a measly 46KB/s,thats like a normal upload to another user lol. What might be the problem,can it be signal interference,something with the ports,or something im not aware of? If anyone can help I would really appreciate it,because it makes it a hassle to transfer something to my laptop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cak46 Posted May 10, 2005 CID Share Posted May 10, 2005 How's your internet download speed? Have you checked your cables to be sure they are jacked in tight? If you changed network settings, hardware when the problem began, set the speed/duplex to 100 full duplex (Actually, anything but autonegotiate or autodetect). Let us know.

DJVageli Posted May 10, 2005 Author CID Share Posted May 10, 2005 Thanks for the response,and to answer your question,my speeds are still normal,sometimes above average lol,all the wires are jacked in good,i am set at 100 full.The onlything I can think of is maybe when I upgraded firmware on the router,or maybe my pc speakers might be interfering,if thats possible,or maybe even my cordless phone lol.Could that be it?

netmasta Posted May 10, 2005 CID Share Posted May 10, 2005 It could defiantly be a cordless phone. Some cordless phones and most newer routers both run on the 2.4Ghz range. Try moving the router or phone, and then check your speeds again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cak46 Posted May 10, 2005 CID Share Posted May 10, 2005 What kind of router are you running? If it's a wireless router, I would agree with Netmasta. You can try throttling back one of the machines to 100 half duplex or 10 half duplex and see if that might cure it. I've had the same problem on d-link hubs in the past.

About how far do I have to move them,cuz my phone is 2.4GHz lol and its about 3-4 feet away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cak46 Posted May 11, 2005 CID Share Posted May 11, 2005 I have a wireless linksys router,and do u think if I set it back to half it might work? Couldn't hurt to try. Problem I had was the communication was just about perfect asynchronous, causing huge packet loss due to max collisions at the hub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
