I was trying to diagnose problems with a newly-activated broadband line for a customer yesterday. Can I check that I've made the correct deductions about where the problem lies? BT Voyager 220 router (1 ethernet, 1 USB, no wireless) Router in master test socket (extension wiring disconnected) works fine: 2.5-3 Mbps downstream 6 dB margin

I am trying to set up Tiscali Broadband for a friend, but encountered a couple of problems: 1.) ADSL filter does not work on master telephone( phone goes dead), but is ok on all extensions. 2.) Installation seems to be ok, however I get message back saying ' no dial tone'. OS = win XP Modem is Speedtouch 330 ADSL I'd be grateful for any suggestion to get my friends system operational. TIA

Is this true? "If you pass the limit on ADSL your limited to 512k for A WHOLE WEEK" Is this right? "STM is a Cisco uBR technology, how is that applied to a Virgin ADSL connection that is serviced from a non unbundled BT exchange???"

Hi All Anybody know what the default log-in and password (and the IP) for the AWR-5000 II router is? Have reset the unit (little press switch on the back) but the paperwork that came with it isn't where I thought it would be, yes I know Doh! Have just rediscovered how painfull dial-up is :^

I have 7x .com, 3x .net, 1x .org domains to renew. At my current registrant (Mythic Beasts) this costs 8pounds+VAT each per year. Can anyone suggest somewhere that might be cheaper to renew this lot in bulk? All I want is the domain registration and ability to change the DNS servers, and no transfer in/out penalties. I notice there are various US registrars who seem to cost the same or...

This can't just be me!!!! It's getting worse... When I first got Sky BB the service was uninterrupted and fast... It's stil fast, but more and more frequently the amber light on the router flashes and it's obviously lost synch... The dB value is really low, particularly in the evening 3 at the

Is it just me, or is it every time I upgrade my line speed, Piscali drag their heels? Evey time I have done an online upgrade, it has taken a followup email to activate the upgrade. Is their system capable of doing an automaitic upgrade? Bob

Any ideas on this? I set up a D-Link DI-514 802.11b wireless router connected to Virgin Media to provide internet coverage for 4 students in a shared house. Two of them get good coverage and have no problems; the other 2 have problems loading web pages. Both problem laptops are IBM THinkpads. (the OK ones are a DELL and a MAC). One of the Thinkpads is about a year old, but had not used its...

I have been to a friend who has suffered low line speed for some time. On checking the BT installed NTE5 master socket I found that the external bell was wired into the system behind the wall mounted part of the socket i.e. before the test socket. Is this correct and how should it be wired? Maybe kraftee can answer. TIA Peter Crosland
