Present system is a Netgear DG834G providing connection to broadband,
plus wifi for laptops, plus 4 items connected via the 4x LAN ports of
the Netgear. One of those wired LAN connected items is a mono laser
printer, which has a colour laser printer sat alongside it, which is
fitted with a LAN socket and USB.
With no spare LAN socket on the router, I am presently using a Netgear

We've recently been upgraded to ADSL2+ by BT. Whilst we get a decent
improvement in download speeds, a mere sniff of RF on top band and the
router loses sync and disconnects. It's a Draytek 2800G.
Not surprising since this is in-band interference to an ADSL2+ router.
Tried filtering the mains and a common mode filter on the line. No
change.
Setting the modem to G.DMT fixes it but at the...

So, hands up who's got a laptop or wireless device that runs 2.4 AND
5Ghz ? Nope not me.
Way to go for being future proofed for the next 12 months or so though.

One tel inbound e mails not been working properly since Thursday; we

Onetel webmail down too; don't Talk Talk realise this?
There's no service status on OneTel's www anymore; must affect a lot

I have been given a BT Homehub 2, but I am on Tiscali. I have a modem
router in use and a couple of spares should that one fail, but is the
BT unit any use at all to me, would it work with Tiscali?

Hi,
I recently signed up for the Post Office's Broadband and Home Phone Extra
service, for a house I haven't moved into yet.
I was very surprised to hear that a PO engineer visited the house today,
found no-one in, and knocked on a neighbour's door to ask how he could get
in to the property. She happened to have a set of keys, assumed he was
legitimate, and let him in.

A friend with no computer know-how has O2 broadband. It failed a couple of
days ago. After finally getting through to their phone support she was
sent a new router. But it came with no instructions. Before I volunteer to
drive over and try to help get it set up for her ageing lap top I'm
curious to know if that absence of any documentation is common? Is there a
routine installation procedure for...

Our exchange is finally due to be upgraded so I'm looking to retire my
long-serving Speedtouch frog. I'm looking for a reliable ADSL2+ modem
sans wireless & firewall, it will plug straight into my Linux server.
There seem to be a number of low-end single port modems, I guess I'm
looking for something like my old ADSLNation modem that gave out the
PPP config via a DCHP lease and bridged all...

I'm the account holder for a BT Broadband service with the router BT
Home Hub 3.0B. Say I want to give limited wireless access to a couple
of housemates, can I do this with this router? I want to maintain full
speed (or as close to it as possible) for myself while allowing them
limited bandwidth. I can't see a way in the router settings of
achieving this.
Thanks.

I am thinking of getting infinity and have a couple of questions.
Is it possible to replace the provided kit with a single unit such as
the Draytek 2750?
If I did this, would I get complaints from BT?
Also, any one know if bt or the plusnet product is more throttled?
I note that the bt product is slightly more expensive but they claim it
