Can the cheapest Tiscali broadband be used with a modem/router or just router and the Tiscali supplied modem, and two PCs run off this one broadband line? Ideally I would like the router at the master phone socket, which is at one end of the house, and the PCs fed via existing telephone wires, on different floors at the other end of the house. The telephone wires can be connected at the master...

I suppose they could detect usage which is...

At the moment i am 5k from the exchange, we failed the line test. All the lines are new (new build house), i am hoping when the noise limits are relaxed we will be able to get 512. A question, at the moment, our line is so bad that normal 56k modems wont connect over 33k, i have an external high quality modem that reliably gets me 38k though. With the new limits, how bad does your line have to...

Can you borrow a different modem/router from a friend and test that? Similarly can you test your router on another connection? It will tell you if your router is at fault or if there is some kind of routing problem somewhere. If you have any antivirus/firewall/spyware filtering program which will be affecting your Internet connection then turn it off. Run your computer with nothing open...

Hi there; I recently installed and configured an eTec Wireless ADSL Router. Everything works, except the fact that only Google works! The laptop I am using to connect to the wireless router shows this problem, as does the main PC which is connected to the router via USB. Gmail, Google and all Google sites/pages work, but no other websites do. I am able to ping sites just fine... :S Help?

I just can't access the server from my pc at work. I'm...
