Current: 2 x BT Lines ("L1" and "L2") terminate/presented at point A in House (L1 = "Home", L2 = "Work") There is currently a 6-wire laid from Point A to point B L1 has a DECT phone, so no cabled extensions L2 uses two of the 6-wire to provide an Extension of L2 at Point B (used by 2 modems and a phone - ignore REN!) Futu ADSL is to be enabled on L1

probably crap on the camera.. If you will notice, the image is made up of lots of smaller images put otgether like a jigsaw (hence the bits missing on the bottom left). The lack of seeing it in any other frame means that it could not have been moving. I would imagine that in that frame something blew/settled on the lens for a moment. "explorer" wrote in...

I have started up with a Binatone ADSL Modem from PlusNet and have been having my line drop for no explicable reason and sometimes if a telephone call comes in etc. I also have had variable quality of sound in some of my voice communication programmes, (something I need a lot), and want to change to a Router for my one PC. I have had recommendations for D-Link and various other Routers but...

I have a Netgear DM602 broadband modem (setup in Router mode - essential as PPPOA is only supported in the UK and the WRT54G does not support PPPOA as far as I understand) connected by ethernet cable to a Linksys WRT54G, linked in turn to a desktop PC. This works perfectly well for surfing, email, FTP etc. but when I try and open up some ports or even DMZ then I get nowhere with serving web...

Hello Experts! Does anyone know of a synchronisation logging program for use with a router? I suffer from a few drop outs - I would like to monitor and log when I lose sync. I am using a DSL-504 router and I know I have the built in events log, but all I need is a basic logger that tells me when I attain sync and when it drops. I imagine anything available will be more complex than I need as...

hi mates i've got a virgin broadband connection. i would like to share it with my flat mate, so what should i do? should i buy a router? i've got a thomson speedtouch adsl usb modem. thanks

I'm planning the installation of BB to two home networked machines both on XP pro. They are currently connected using old fashioned 10mb ethernet coax, via a simple Netgear hub. I also use a portable. I'm planning to buy an ADSL modem/router/wireless network and I've yet to make the choice on which to buy. My question is that once I've installed the hardware, will I have to change any settings...

I have recently changed over to the aol broadband service and i honestly think it is EXCELLENT-1mb service for just under thirty five pound a month---its supremely faster and much better than anything ive had before. Ive had NTL, and theyre absolute tosh,if the truth be known. The aol broadband service enables me to access my office and other client sites perfectly and i just think its a really...

I've a friend with a weird problem. Putting a BT certified filter on the line then connecting a standard phone and ADSL modem, I can hear the modem syncing then the ADSL signal, albeit faintly. All other comms equipment has been removed from the line, there are 3 jacks of which all seem to be wired as extensions from the main junction box in the house. The modem is a SAR703a, but the problem is...

A case of backscratching ? Communication regulator Ofcom have announced an investigation is currently underway involving BT Wholesale possibly giving preferential treatment to other BT Group ISPs. http://snipurl.com/3s21 Plusnet regrade offer

Earlier yesterday we reported prices and details for the imminent launch of BT Yahoo Broadband 1MB. Well, now we have learned that the new service appears to have an added feature. http://snipurl.com/3rn7 Its all happening at BT these days, with the release of information detailing BT Broadband's release of their 1MB product, following the announcement of BT Yahoo Broadband's offering...

I recently attempted to have broadband installed by plus net but it was rejected because it says the line is inadequate. BT websitre tells me I'm a long way from the exchange and that this may be a problem. Does anyone know if this is basically tough luck or is there something I can do to pressurize BT into improving things Thanks

Just replaced a Netgear DS106 10/100Mb/s hub with a Linksys WAG54G wireless router/adsl modem. My Dell 8200 (Win XP) and Toshiba Libretto (Win 98SE) work fine when connected to the router RJ45 ports, but a Dell GXa and Dell GXi cannot even access the router console or be pinged from the router. The offending PCs are running Windows 98SE and I am using static IP addressing (192.168.1.10x) which...

I 'm sorry but I don't understand why migration costs so much and why i can't migrate to a different product! I want to change my current ADSL(512) provider to plusnet and upgrade to there 1mb line? However they have quoted me 41 quid to migrate (I'd of though they would want the business) and then 50 quid+ to upgrade? What do they have to do to upgrade I have been informed that they do not have...

I would have joined them but I heard a lot of bad things about them so held off. the 400k is only available on unbundled Bulldog exchanges - are you on one ? The bad things were mainly about datastream higher speed products I think.

I am seeking advice on what ADSL Ethernet Modem I should consider. The modem should be wired and support non-NAT. Also, the modem will connect to my LAN via a firewall, therefore firewall/router functionality are not desired/required. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Scott

I will be moving to a place that I don't intend to stay for more than 6 months. But I do want broadband. Most companies want you to sign up to a minimum 12 month contract, so presumably after you cancel after 6months you have to pay them a lump sum relating to how much you have to pay for the remaining time? This would mean the monthly charge is effectively doubled.

At last Home1000 regrades are available for "Engineer Installed 512k Single User ADSL" without the need for a two stage regrade and £72+VAT charges!!! These were announced today, at £25+VAT...for the regrade and then £34.99 monthly thereafter... I'll have some of that....
