I have recently been given a (used) 2500V which I wish to use as a backup both for my 3Com ADSL modem/wireless router (ISP = PlusNet) and for my PAP2T ATA (used with voip.co.uk) I have flashed it with downloaded firmware to "unlock" it (not sure whether that was really necessary or not) and have succeeded in getting it working as a modem/wireless router with my PlusNet ADSL service -...

I am providing a static home camp site here in Spain with Internet connection. I also offer a VOIP only option, to the non internet savey. I am probably not interested in re-selling the VOIP accounts, just wanted a Voip service provider who I could pass the customer onto, let them open and operate their own Voip account, I just do the setting up of the Voip adapter for them and I charge them for...

Can anyone shed any light on the problem I am having when dialling Powwownow's US conference number +1 712 432 2888 from my VoIPTalk SIP account? The number is always answered automatically by a service called 'royaltyfreemusic.com' with a repeated message and goes no further. The number is accessible when dialling from a US landline or Vonage but both VoIPTalk and Powwownow say its nothing to...

We have the Voip service 'VoipStunt'. Sometimes on our list of telephone contact numbers a lot of the contacts go missing, and then re-appear later. Would like to store this contact list we have on VoipStunt somewhere else for safekeeping. They do not allow you to copy and paste your list. Under 'Tools' they give the options of 'backup contacts to file'. These options are V Card Files...

I have an Asterisk box running Debian which is happily routeing VoIP. I would like to be able to send calls via PSTN when that's cheaper than a public VoIP provider, which as far as I know means an FXO card. Any hardware to avoid, or that people would recommend? Similarly, I'd like recommendations for FXS hardware so that I can connect a conventional telephone into the VoIP network, e.g. as a...

I have seen two PCs both Dell Dimensions that access the web thro ethernet cables to the router. PC1 is slow to load web pages and broadbandspeedchecker shows a D/L speed of 1500 Mbps. PC2 loads web pages faster yet shows a D/L speed of only 1000 Mbps. Both PCs use Firefox, any ideas why the page loading is so different please? Have run AV and antispyware on both

Yep yet another post about BB speeds, I am testing with broadbandspeedchecker.co.uk, the 2 PCs are next to each other thro the same wired router. PC1 is slower to load web pages than PC2, yet PC1 is 50% faster on its speedcheck, how can this be so? I have run CCleaner on both which I assume gives the PCs a clean slate to some extent so they both get a level start? Both are Dell Dimension...

Hi, Has any BT residential customer managed to get BT Connect on their residential phone line? If not, was it painless swapping out to small business? I am looking at the pros/cons of getting a BT Connect connection with a couple of static IP addresses and minutes to UK landlines included. The BT Openworld residential packages don't include static IP or multiple IP address options...

I've been suffering occasional but regular ADSL disconnects for a couple of weeks now, and the frequency of them has increased since some heavy rain last Wednesday. The symptoms are as follows:-. Suddenly my router (Cisco AM200) will lose sync with the exchange, or its sync speed will drop dramatically. When I notice this happening I can hear crackles and whistling sounds on the phone line.

A friend and I finally persuaded one of his neighbours to upgrade her broadband. She was still paying for a Fixed Rate 2 Mb/s service which was installed years ago, even though her exchange has been both 21CN'd and FTTC'd. So she went for BT Infinity, and it was installed a week ago. The installer apparently said it might take a week for the speed to stabilise, which surprised me. Anyway, my...

I've been reviewing my options with regard to upgrading my SPA3102 firmware. There appears to be two firmware revisions available at http://bit.ly/bzikB4 - one version 3.3.6 and one 5.1.10. My SPA3102 is already at 3.3.6 (firmware "3.3.6(GW)" with a hardware revision "1.4.5(a)" to be precise), yet (a) I've never upgraded it in the couple of years I've had it, and (b) the release date for...

Is news.enta.net down ? Have spoken to them several times recently and they seem to indicate that they have had a problem with their news server, no they have apparently fixed it but say that it's having difficulty peering. Now it seems as if it's off the air altogether..!! Anyone else using this news feed ? if so is it working for you ?

Noticed that I had lost internet connectivity, checked router and it had ATM sync (2624 down and 832 up, about usual for here) but no PPP session, asked it reconnect PPP a few times but it kept saying it timed-out, did a soft reboot of the router, still the same, power-cycled the router, still the same.

Does anyone have any views on the changes of decent early termination charges for a T-Mobile dongle. It's 6 months into 18-month contract, and I want to cancel: the service is pretty poor, so that could be grounds. Also, the recent ruling by Ofcom on early termination charges on landlines could help (but only refers to broadband when it's packaged with a landline). Thought I'd ask for...

But, as I want to use my webcam today, meanwhile I tried registering a new account. That failed too, with a message telling me something like "Do so direct..." and linking me to a download file.

EntaNet explicitly lowers the priority of UDP packets, treating all UDP data as P2P. I have recently received confirmation from EntaNet that it has no intention of removing this restriction for OpenVPN traffic (UDP/1194) even though staff there acknowledge that it is a VPN service. I've instead been advised that I should change my package from a Home based one to a Business based one. There are...
