I am one of the technical support agents. I dont know who you lot have spoken with in the past but there aint no scripts to follow. Most of the staff have alot of technical knowledge (myself I have a BSc in Computing). with regards to getting the SB3100 swapped if you call up and tell them they have to swap because its an issue when have know about since the speed upgrades. If you do get...

Haven't been able to send / receive emails all day through the Metronet server. Can anyone say they have the same problem?

Hi all, Does anyone hear know anything about the diabolical fiasco we are having at f2s?. Customers have been affected with very bad speeds, The speed has picked up a little for the ADSL customers but for the customers on LLU speeds are still very bad, By bad i mean very bad sometimes so slow that 56k modems would thrash the speed obtained (this is not a joke i am serious). It started...

As per subject, can't find an answer on their site ... If not Eclipse, can anyone suggest a good UK time server to point my router to?

Some advice needed: I am on PlusNet 2MB at the moment but have just had the "Level 1" email and binary usenet has gone kapput and I expect my ftp server has slowed right down too. So - am looking for a new ISP that has no traffic shaping or down/upload limits, under £30 per month and ideally with a one month minimum. I used to be with Zen and would love to go back, but they cost too much, unless...

Does anyone know for sure how ISPs typically total up their customers monthly usage? I am trying to find out whether things like TCP and IP headers are included in the totals, and perhaps other overheads (data sent over an Ethernet network gets yet another set of headers, for example). How about things like ICMP packets (pings) and retransmission of bad data - does it all count? It would...

I've got Bulldog Broadband and use an Apple Airport to connect my OS 10.4.4 iMac to a D-Link DSL-502T ADSL router for wireless broadband. After a lot of teething troubles it now works ticketty-boo. But I want to wirelessly connect a Windows XP PC to the network too. The PC wireless modem recognises the Airport, says it's connected... but we can't get any data of any kind down the line. It keeps...

I've got two of these here wireless routers: http://www.jaht.com/products/router/wa4054.htm . How do I turn off NAT? Basically I've got one upstars with the internet connection, and one downstairs with a phone and a computer. I was hoping to use them to bridge the two LANs so I don't have to run 50ft of CAT5.

hi, when i recently ran some tests on open network ports on a server i think i noticed that a VOIP protocol seemed to be blocked. what i'd like to do is to set up an asterisk VOIP server here for testing purposes but thought i'd ask if anyone else has done this successfully over a demon HomeOffice 2000 connection. any thoughts, pointers etc gratefully received.

Voip Learning and Translating Tutorial Voice Over IP is a new communication means that let you telephone with Internet at almost null cost. How this is possible, what systems are used, what is the standard, all that is covered by this Howto. http://www.freewebs.com/voipformula/VoIP-HOWTO.html

Is the 802.11A wireless standard legal in this country? I have been looking for adsl routers which can run on this standard with no success so far as they all seem to be B or G. The reason I am asking is that I have had difficulties with G standard routers suffering from interference from other wireless sources in the same band. Alan

I was just thinking how wonderful life was, when "Gøñzølã" T o p @ S e c r e t . c o m opened his gob and said: It's bin about 3 months now, surely they shud know these things! Leek yoozing a spill chucker! -- Cheers,

Hi, I have had the Conexant AccessRunner ADSL ever since I went on ADSL a few years ago. I am very satisfied with it, but I have one problem with it (more likely the drivers?). I put my PC into hibernation at night rather than completely shutting down, for 2 reasons: 1. It's quicker to boot up after powering up again.

I'm currently having a poor time with PlusNet - poor connection speeds, restrictive throttling and astoundingly poor news servers - both text and binary - and now they just announced a fault with emails with attachments (for god's sake, how cutting-edge complicated is that?). To give you an idea, in the past 5 days they have announced the following problems on their service status group...

Hi Folks, A week or so ago I started out on a "cost cutting exercise" and one of the things I'm tasked with is to sort out my telephone and mobile costs. I have 2 lines coming into my house - one for business and one for personal. ADSL is on the business line - to which I still pay for (as it's my own business) - I don't need the line as it's seldom used for any calls, and is just used for...
