Hello, I recently bought eBay item 6877317668 - a Gigabyte GN-WIAG01 wireless 2.4GHz miniPCI card, to stick in my WRAP router that I'm building. It's all working perfectly, except, erm, it's encased in aluminium, and the range is... pathetic :( (as it, WRAP and elan adaptor are on the same table, they're connecting at 802.11b speeds, and still dropping out every minute or so). Should have...

I'm connected in the usual way via BT/w to Plusnet, but I was Max-ed early (in January, at Plusnet's instigation, not mine) as part of a trial. The results have been mostly beneficial, don't get me wrong. A few weeks back, it occurred to me that sporadic failures on my MaxADSL line were following some kind of pattern. The ADSL connection was failing, once each evening, and was staying...

Talktalk have recently started to offer "free" broadband with one of their phone packages. What they do not make clear, however, when you are signing up for their 18 month contract, is that certain ports are either blocked entirely or restricted. *This also applies to existing accounts, paying FULL price!* (i.e. mine :) )

Has anyone else had any problems with Evolution DSL? I migrated to them from Tiscali (2mbps unlimited) 2 months ago, and found that I got much slower speed and more problems than before. I am migrating yet again to AAISP this week, having read several testimonials here. I decided to write here as I am fed-up waiting for replies to my emails from them (Evolution has no telephone number to call)

Sorry I am a bit of a newbie, I was wondering if anyone knows the download and upload speed for the Wanadoo 2.2Mbps broadband package? Cheers Chris

as to why they don't state that Usenet is available on the cheaper packages. http://www.telewest.co.uk/websales/service.do?id=2 "No, it's not a typo. It's available to customers on all 3 tiers of service, it's just not advertised as a visible service to the other tiers as largely it's a service demanded by those on the top tier." LOL!

I have received their flyer with the motto "Bulldog. The gate is open". Now all that makes me think is not to enter in case I get badly bitten!

I have recently emailed Onetel on a couple of occasions to request information about regrading to 8Mb. Neither has been answered. Onetel used to be good at responding to queries, but since their takeover the level of service seems to have got much worse. Has anyone managed to get regraded by Onetel yet, or are they hoping that existing subscribers will switch over to Talk Talk. If current...

as above does anyone no any for my friend??? he wants to come on groups like this

When you are informed you will be going onto max, do you have to download something at the maximum speed available to your current line speed or is it OK simply just to be connected for it to "train"

You only get access to blueyonder's Usenet service if you buy the 'Elite' package. It's the most expensive one, so sod that :o(

I know this is technically OT but... I'm thinking of providing recently-retired parents with a laptop. Because they will make so little use of the internet I'm considering dial-up rather than broadband, but would like them to have the flexibility of using the laptop anywhere in the house or even the garden. Is there a device - or combination of devices - which will allow wireless communication...

Does anyone else suffer problems with an AOL service for broadband? I seem to get connection problems frequently. I do not know why.

Hello all, Sorry to start my posting here with a plea for help, but I'm stuck! Before I upgrade to MaxDSL, I decided to make sure all my filters and cabling was top drawer, as my line stats are not that great. I purchased a replacement NTE5 faceplate from ADSLNation (http://www.adslnation.co.uk/products/xte2005.php) but on fitting it to my NTE5, I got no DSL sync. All extensions seem to work,...

Orange Wanadoo to anounce a combined package apparently Stephen

Going to make the jump to broadband, and these "seem" to fit the bill, pricewise and allowance (10GB). The ADSLGuide forums don't seem too unhappy either. Before I sign up, does anyone have any alternatives ? Ta Graham (Ps - it'll only be the 2Mb (Home 2000) one as I simply won't have the need of anything faster)

Hi Any recommendations for a cheap (£100) ADSL modem that doesn't keep hanging when using P2P? I am not a heavy downloader, the occasional DVD ISO. Only need 1 ethernet port, wireless not required. I am connecting using Eclipse 1 Meg service. I have googled for an answer but it seems that most reviews of ADSL

Hi everyone, I have a "long line" ~7km so am only able to get 512k from ISPs but recently my modem went on the blink and started to have frequent disconnections. Tried what the ISP said (unplugging all phones etc) but that never worked, so borrowed another modem (Netgear DG814) and it now works OK. My question is, what is the best, or good modem for a long line to avoid disconnections? Will...

Without a doubt, you have often heard the claim that Jesus is God, the second person in the "Holy trinity." However, the very Bible which is used as a basis for knowledge about Jesus and as the basis for doctrine within Christianity clearly belies this claim. We urge you to consult your own Bible and verify that the following conclusions are not drawn out of context: 1. God is All...
