Hi all,
Just upgraded my broadband here at home (with Zen) to the ADSL2+ service, router (Netgear DG834N) started syncing happily around 10mb, but now has dropped to 7.5mb.
Router has also started being a little unstable recently, but in an odd way, router stays connected, and I can browse to the routers settings happily enough, but it seems to loose all DNS ability (even though it is still connected and sending and receive packets).
So, thinking of changing my router to something newer, question is what model though? I honestly don't mind the price if that means getting me something reliable, that can hold a decent connection speed, just no real idea what is good and what is not....
I'd like to stay sync'd at around 10mb if possible, I don't live that far away from the exchange (about 2km max) so just wondering if it is my old router playing up?
Do I need to manually play around with SNR bits and pieces etc?
