Slower DSL download speed with router

Win2K Pro SP.4, single user, SpeedTouch modem, PPPoE,
Dlink Dl-604 router. I used to use a Kerio firewall but
following a crash In October, the guy who repaired it,
installed a Dlink router in place of the firewall. I have a
subscription to Grisoft's AVG7.5 and there's been no problems.

I used to get 170 KB/s download (3 MB service but long way
from CO) but now it's only about 35 KB/s, about only a fifth
of what it used to be. I've tested it by downloading files that
I've previously downloaded, at different times of day.

I have a call into my repair guy and will probably speak to
him this coming week, but wonder if you have any helpful
comments?

Re: Slower DSL download speed with router

You best find a different repairman. Anybdoy who sells someone a Dlink
router does not have their best interests at heart. To put it nicely
Dlink is shit. The Dlink router is your whole problem. Trash the router
and buy a linksys. Remember i'll be here to prevent anymore of your
computer crashes. Just ask Tony.

the same line we're sold out all we have is Dlink but no one wants them.

Yah, well I've got a very nice DGL 4300 here, works flawlessly.

Re: Slower DSL download speed with router

If sympatico raises the speeds up to true adsl2+ speeds of 24/3.5 your router will
be a cooked goose while that speed wouldn't even phase a linksys router.

Have you checked if there is a newer firmware?
If there is one upgrade the unit.
You can see if the SPI mode ('Tools > Misc') is enabled,
and if it is turn it of to see if you get a better speed.

You can also toggle DoS protection (same 'Misc'tab) on/off.

And of course try to reboot the unit.

But the first thing is the firmware.

The D-link 604 is cheap but no crap the one I have has served me well
and is still doing so.

Re: Slower DSL download speed with router

You can spout all your lies about Dlink routers but no one except maybe warren is
going to fall for them. Truth is most Dlink routers break down well before the
warranty period is up whereas linksys routers work virtually for generations.
That's the reason most linksys routers cost double what a Dlink router costs.
People think they can get something for nothing. All they end up getting is
nothing but problems just like alan all because he wasn't making a smart decision
in the first place.

Re: Slower DSL download speed with router

I've never heard so much hogwash in my life. I talk to people on the loading
docks who bought dlink routers all said the same thing all of them failed
the first month after they bought them. I've always touted the linksys
router as one of the best and as we all know dlink is one of the worst. In
fact i'd say if it wasn't for the hawking router the dlink would be declared
the worst router ever built.

I don't know what kind of cockamamie mumbo jumbo this is but here in
newfoundland everybody knows everybody and everybody knows that dlink
routers are a hunk a shit. Why at one point in time years ago it was so bad
they were giving them away for free at future shop. I remember even back
then there were no takers and the people in the cashier's lineups were
holding linksys routers.

What does your dsl box say *its* speed is: frequently you'll get power
surges and the like and the speed the box thinks it should be running at
drops. There's probably a spot on in the setup book you got for the box
that tells you how to find this out. Note: this is *not* the same thing
as a online speed test. If that's the case, try turning the dsl box off
for a couple of seconds and then back on. There's probably a reset
button on the back.

Finally, Not that I had anything to do with it, but sorry about the
ranting that happened instead of the help you were asking for. The best
way to handle ranters/trolls on usenet is to just ignore them and not
reply to their posts. Killfiling them may be satisfying, but doesn't
achieve any desired effect. (s

I usually don't ever agree with you but these trolls are getting to me too.
This leythos dude is well known all over usenet then he just appears as if
by magic here with some malarky. I told this unfortunate dlink router orphan
the same thing you told him. The router doesn't work.

I think i went through about 7 or 8 Dlink routers in the first 6 months
while it was still under warranty and i said to myself i've had enough of
this. Upon some advice from a computer store owner i bought a linksys
router. I'm still using the same router 8 years later.

Most of the people on this newsgroup couldn't afford a router. See, they need

Take the case with this fool: If I kill file him, he'll just switch to
another nym - he's already done exactly that - he really freaked before
he did though and that was kind of satisfying - You see I didn't really
kill file him. I just said I did and then read his posts, completely
ignoring what they said in mine. That's reason number one. Reason number
two, if you kill file them, they can say anything they want about you,
and you'll never know it, and that can be very bad. I'm sure you can
think of others, but you get the idea - you post they can read anything
you post, but you never read anything they post. Doesn't make for good
knowledge of the lay of the land.

Re: Slower DSL download speed with router

At one point in time a while back two smaller canadian isp's were using linksys
routers (the type they sell in best buy and future shop). That shows you what a
linksys router can handle. A Dlink router would last but a millisecond under that
kind of load.

No, you're just another victim that's experienced the "Steve delusion"
problem. I've seen it happen on at least 6 other groups. Just in case
you don't know (which apparently you don't - pay more attention to the
"volume" posters - good and bad) Tony aka Steve aka Seedless Grape aka
Steveo ... Are one and the same person. Welcome to usenet, where the
loonies you cross the street to avoid can send you messages.

There was about 700 people and they were speed capped at 50 kilobytes per second
maximum for those two months.

I've seen the same thing in the business world. Most are wired and i've never seen a Dlink
router used ever. In most installations the linksys routers are used. But like Leythos says he
has all those years of experience bullshitting people.

Firstly I would remove the router temporarily and use the modem only.
Just to make sure the Router doesn't have a problem. If your speeds
are still slow the problem is most likely outside your internal loop
because modems 'usually' work or they don't. It *is* possible for the
modem to have a problem but unlikely. The next phase would be for
telco to do a line test between you and the CO to determine line loss
and signal to noise ratio.
You may as well do the router thing before the fact because that is the
*first* thing they will want you to do.

It might be nice to try speakeasy to see if you are actually
consistently slow or whether there is data stalling.

http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/

The latter virtually proves a problem at the ISPs' end.

Stalling is indicated by normal speed then a severe drop in speed
followed by increased speed etc etc.....

Hope this helps a little.

Ha those studies mean nothing. How about a reliability study? Dlink are one

This doesn't sound like darrell. I've always noticed one thing about you on usenet
you were always too stupid to lie about anything.

Thanks to those that responded positively (others should go
to http://www.laughteryoga.ca/). The tech guy used
his setup on my line and got the same result at noon today,
and the ISP put a "trouble ticket" into Bell. Checked at 5 pm
and speed has been restored, in fact a little faster than it was,
as per http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/

Re: Slower DSL download speed with router

You bonehead the whole problem is your 2 cent router. Throw that router
off a cliff or into a bottomless pit. To all the weasels who told him
different i hope you're happy now the guy has some trouble ticket
that'll get him nowhere. Jump up and down on that router.

Re: Slower DSL download speed with router

What are you talking about? You were one of those weasels i was talking about
that bumsteered the guy. Oh you'll see how fast he comes back here with the
same question all thanks to people like you. Can't you see the poor guy is
green as grass he doesn't even know how to take the router out and just
connect the modem up to the computer. Someone else set his whole computer up
for him and when the slightest thing goes wrong he hasn't a clue. He's
clueless then some gomers give the guy even worst advice telling him nothing
is wrong. I say pitch that router into the nearest lake or ocean.

Here we go another guy who didn't even read the original question. I can
tell someone's opinion must come highly rated when he can answer a question
without even reading the question.

Read what he said. Everything worked perfect until that dipshit repairman
unloaded that piece of shit router on him. Alan is a novice he knows
nothing about computers like i said give it a few days he'll be back here
with the same problem and possibly other problems.

"Alan illeman Junior" is not me, nor related to me!!
Admittedly I have some line problems and am not getting anything like
the advertised 3 MB/s but 180 KB/s is fine for now. When I take the
modem out, the speed is still 180 KB/s.

Should have said "When I take the router out, the speed is still 180 KB/s."
