| | Two-day outage on Be in Beds/Herts by
Clive Page
Broadband has been off for almost two days, with still no estimate of
when the fault is going to be fixed, for Luton, Hitchin, and a number of
other telephone exchanges in Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire. The Be
helpline claims that other broadband suppliers are also affected.
The fault is apparently a break in some fibre owned by BT "between
Luton, Hemel Hempstead, and Berkhampsted" - which...

Is this still considered to be the optimum solution?

Chris Hills
Hi
Does anyone else have problems with accessing nntp servers through Sky
Broadband or is it just me? At the best of times it is flaky, and at
evenings and weekend it is completely unusable. I use nntp purely for
text groups (big five, gmane, mozilla, mozdev, opera) and not binaries.

| | Using S2 as a modem - expensive? by
CJB
I topped up my S2 subscription by £10 and received the usual 'free
stuff' including an internet allowance of 150Mb.
However my Three mobile dongle has just run out of credit with a week
to go, so I decided to buy a one week internet add-on at £2.50 for the
S2 which I can also use as a modem.
However I have two concerns.
One - how much download/upload data do I get for the one week internet

Tony Mountifield
I'm looking to change my ADSL broadband supplier from Claranet so
that I can get a block of 8 IPs (5 usable, I know) instead of a
single static IP.
Currently looking at Zen, AAISP and Idnet, about all of which I have
seen good reports over the years, but don't know how they currently
compare on performance and service.
Any recommendations or reviews from anyone here?

| | wireless router as access point only by
Denis McMahon
ADSL 2+ is provided by a thompson speedtouch modem / router connected to
an 8 port switch.
I also have a discarded by someone else but apparently fully functional
Zoom X6 ADSL router series 1058 model 5590C.
I was wondering if I could use the Zoom device as a wireless access
point on my LAN.

Hi all
For those of you who are outside the Hull area, this will sound Monopolistic
and prehistoric in ISP terms.
Users inside the Hull and suburbs boundary have one fixed line/Internet
connection provider to choose from Kingston Communications - branded Karoo.
So my current deal gives me unlimited download with (admittedly) some loss
of service during peak evening hours.

Carl Waring
As per subject, I'm interested to know which Wireless N router TalkTalk
sell/give way for use with their service.
Is it any good?
Not for me specifically, but so I can help out a friend.
(I did try to help them by suggesting they switch away from TT, but they are
happy there so that's fine!)

zeitgeist
Hi all,
Apologies if this is common knowledge but despite considerable efforts,
I cannot get a clear answer.
I have been given a BT 2700hgv router and am about to get connected to
BT Total Broadband. Could I use the 2700hgv router with Total Broadband
or is the Total Broadband standard issue router as good/better/any
different? What are the advantages to using each?

The Natural Philosopher
OK, situation is I would like to squeeze as much as I can out of
upstream connectyion.
Sync is fine at 448k, but actual throughput is down at 376k consistently.
Now I know there is always some overhead, but what is the best way to
minimise that..is there an optimal MTU size?
Currently its 1400.

Thanks all round to the 860,000 owners of the newer variety of home hubs

I'm sure that all these good people ARE aware of this...
