Slow Mbps With 60Mb Superhub?
Oct 28, 2012
I recently purchased the 60Mb superhub plan from Virgin media but for some reason I am only getting 1-3Mbps when I test it on speedtest.net using 2.4GHz wireless band and I get 10-25Mbps using the 5GHz wireless band. I tried testing my laptop on the 2GHz wireless band and put it in the same location as my PC and get around 35-40Mbps. On the computer downstairs which is closer to the router I also tried testing it and get 50-60Mb. (I can't test it on 5GHz on my laptop or the other computer because they don't support 5GHz)

So I have installed my new E4200 version 1 and I am disappointed with the speeds. My computer has a wireless N card and gigabit Ethernet compatibility. I am currently getting a miserly 54 mbs wireless and 100 mbs on the wire (connected with cat6 all the way)... Anything I should try to get close to advertized speeds?

I have a PC with an onboard Realtek 8168 PCIe Gigabit connected to a D-Link 655 Gigabit router.Here's the odd situation: when speed/duplex is set to 100Mbps, my upload speed using www.Speedtest.net is fine (~3.0 Mbps). However, when I switched it over to 1.0Gbps, it goes down all the way to 0.06 Mbps. Download speed is generally unaffected. can't tell which is the likely culprit!
Onboard NIC faulty/underpowered?
Faulty cable (highly doubt, I've tried 5+)?
Or is it a matter of settings? I turned off QoS and WISH on the router, but it didn't do much.

I've been experiencing some problems with my RangeMax wireless NETGEAR router (model WPN824) in terms of wireless connectivity. When directly plugged into my router (i.e. using ethernet cables), the download and upload speed (in mbps - megabytes per second) appear to be working correctly, where we register average download speeds of 15-19 mbps, and 1.99 to 2.07 mbps for upload speeds, as shown on speedtest.net. However, our wireless devices (i.e. laptops and Nintendo Wii) are not picking up the same download speeds, but the upload speed is fine. The problem is that the download speeds of the wireless devices are comparatively low, where speeds of 2.5 to 5.5 mbps are a commonality.
We've tried resetting the router (pushing that small button at the back of the router, using a pin) and have a new 10-character key password. We've also tried simply unlugging the power cable to the router, with disconnecting lengths of about 10 seconds to over a minute for separate attempts. It is also worth noting that the router occasionally disconnects and re-connects on irregular intervals, and we have many wireless devices attached to the router (though many of these are not in use and are very often disconnected from the internet, so I do not think the router is being overwhelmed).
I am currently paying for 30 mbps downloading speed and 2 mbps with respect to uploading, though the 30 mbps downloading speed will likely only be registered if directly connected to the black box (modem). As such, values of 10 to 18 mbps for downloading speed for a wireless device would be considered "normal". Why would our wireless devices not pick the correct mbps download speed? Is it possible that there is a setting on the NETGEAR SMARTWIZARD page (192.168.1.1) that is preventing this?

I recently installed an E4200 router/AP and, on one desktop, an AE2500 USB Adapter. All the other devices on the LAN work fine and the laptops, even show improved tranfer rates. The desktop, with the AE2500, shows good or very good signal strength, but the speed is down around 5.5 Mbps. Running a full backup of the HDD proves the slow speed.

I am only getting 10-14 mbps when I should be getting 30-35 (using the gigabit ports). I thought it might be my provider but today I connected my old netgear router and the speed was 32-34 mbps. Is there some setting that I should be looking at?

Since transferring from a Belkin Wireless Router to the new Virgin Superhub, i am unable to connect to the internet by wireless. Right now i am connected to the ethernet cable attached directly to the hub and it works fine. Also, i have a USB adaptor (which i've just broken ) which also allows me to connect to the internet and works. But i just CAN NOT connect to the internet at all by wireless. For specific example, when i try to connect to Windows Live it tells me that my "Default Gateway" is offline.

I just ran some speedtests om my PC on the advice of my isp to see if my Linksys WRT54G router might be bad. As a result, I found that the router might not be entirely bad, but it might not be entirely good, either. I got .77 Mbps dowload and .17 Mbps upload on the first speedtest. I got .43 Mbps download on the second speedtest and the speed test hung hear the end. When I connected an IMac to the cable modem with an ethernet cable, the IMac ran strong. So the tech thought I should get a new router.
But wait a minute, isn't there a network adapter in the PC that the router talks to? Might the adapter be the problem, not the router? So I speedtested the wireless network to the IMac. That speedtest was fine, tiptop, like the ethernet direct connection test noted above. Did that tell me that the problem is in my PC network adapter, not the router? Then, I retested (speedtested) the connection on the PC and it was fine...excellent. Good up and down speeds, no hangs.Then, I checked the PC adapter (a Belkin). I saw three adapters on Device Manager, including the Belkin. I downloaded new drivers for the adapters (except for the Microsoft Virtual WiFi Minipoty Adapter - because it got a warning that the download software wasn't signed and might harm my computer).

Installation of 2 x 4 Mbps MPLS circuit on primary router (CISCO 2951) and 1 x 8 Mbps Ethernet link on secondary router (Cisco 2951). We have successfully implement the primary router with 2 x 4 Mbps MPLS circuit. Site is having two computer room CR1 and CR2 and distance between both room is 200mts. CR1 is having primary core router and primary core switch where the service provider terminated the new MPLS circuit and we have done the successful implementation. CR2 is having Secondary core router and secondary core switch where we needs to have the termination of Ethernet link but service provider has delivered the Ethernet link on the CR1 which is incorrect DMARC Location.
Both the computer rooms are connected via optical copper can we use that copper to connect the circuit on CR2, as per my understanding we can use the optical fiber to connect the wind circuit on secondary router on CR2 by using the media connector.

I have a Virgin Superhub at home which is capable of 2.4 OR 5GHz wireless. I have a mixture of 2.4 and 5 GHz tech at home so would like to use dual band. My wireless settings on my Superhub modem look like this.As you can see it has settings for 2.4 OR 5GHz and wireless modes of 54, 144 or 300Mbps.
What setting should I be using for my EA4500 to operate in dual band mode? I'm guessing I should put by Virgin Superhub modem in modem mode at 5GHz/300Mbps.I will besetting up seperate SSIDs for 2.4 and 5GHz bands.

I have a Netgear CG3100 modem hooked up to a Netgear WNR2000 router. Both are sending out signals, the CG3100 on channel 11 at 40 Mhz and the WNR2000 on channel 1 at 20/40 Mhz. I keep the WNR for legacy devices while the CG is for N devices only. They don't seem to interfere with each other much.Currently my computer is the only device connected to the modem wirelessly, with the only wired connection being the router. As I write this, the connection has actually dropped to 26 Mbps in the Wireless Network Connection Status window. I understand that this number drops under network load, but there doesn't seem to be any at the moment. If I go into the control panel and simply click apply, the connection jumps back up to 150 Mbps. However, this always drops back down, sometimes immediately, sometimes after a few minutes. It usually settles down at 72 Mbps, sometimes 54 Mbps.My wireless adapter is an ASUS PCE-N13 with v3.2.7.0 Ralink drivers. OS is Windows 7 64-bit.

I just upgraded my cable modem from the Motorola Sufboard 5120 to the DOCSIS 3.0 capable 6120. Provisioned it with Comcast and their "Blast" service (supposedly it caps at 16 down, 2 up).
I had, in the past, used my desktop via N-format wireless (DWA-525 N-format PCI adapter and DIR-655 N-format router) to do a speedtest.net test. I was getting 16 down and 2 up (as advertised). When I switched to the 6120, I did a speedtest.net test again to see what kind of gains, if any, I was getting. Turns out, I was getting 20+ down (nice improvement) and 1/2 Mbps up (a fourth of what I used to be getting?). Called Comcast. They "sent signals" (don't they always?) and claimed that it fixed it. My download speeds increased a smidge (about 22), but my upload speeds were still .5. Called Motorola, they had me do a few things and now I get 1 Mbps up and 27 - 30 down via wireless.
My download speeds are great. I'm content with that. If I hardwire from the cable modem directly to a ****py old laptop, a speedtest.net shows 4 Mbps up. So why do I get such a high upload speed when hardwired (4 Mbps), but a fraction of it (1/4th) when wireless? I'm not using any other devices to sap bandwidth (some are connected -- i.e. another desktop, my Droid phone, etc., but aren't actively pulling packets). And why would it go from 2 up (on my desktop via wireless in the past) to only 1 up (via wireless now) when the setup is the same across the board (as best I recall) other than upgrading my cable modem.
Since I get 4 up when hardwired straight off the cable modem, I assume my DIR-655 is slowing me down somehow. How to pick up the pace a bit? I've already tried the standard "power cycling", etc.
Oh, and the reason I go wireless -- my cable modem and wireless router are in my game room in the basement for my PS3. My desktop computer (and the wife's desktop computer) are two floors directly above it in our "office". Signal strength is "excellent" ... always has been. And again, pretty much everything is the same.

I was wondering why the heck I'm getting BELOW 1 mbps toward my internet connection? I look at my wireless signal, and it's full. yet, I go on speedtest and have about 0.20 mbps.
Info - My parents pay nearly $100 for this bundle thing with the internet, phone, and something else, I think TV.
provider - windstream
router - F@ST 1704
Also, the router is currently on top of the main computer in the office, on top of the router is a house phone.Yet, if I move the house phone, nothing changes. The computer is on the floor.Should i move it? Would this improve my connection?Even the main computer that's wired with the router gets the same mpbs as wireless.

I have a TP Link router which is written as 300M wireless router in the home page when I login into it.
I can think of it as 300 Mega bits per second router. Does it mean it can support upto 300 MBPS internet speed or something like that?

I'm planning to network using powerline adapter for gaming. I know it's not the best solution but i don't have any other choice. My doubt is to buy whether a 500Mbps or 200Mbps. Will this 500 Mbps increase performance ?

I had tried to connect my internet using a 10/100 standard Ethernet card but my net connection was fluctuating. My Brother who is a network engineer told me to switch back to 10 mbps from 100 mbps full duplex and he prayed if that might work. Luckily enough it worked and solved my purpose of delivering uninterrupted net connection.

The title of the thread says it all, but perhaps it does not speak to the level of frustration my family and I are experiencing with our DSL internet service:� Many simple, easy-to-load sites like Google will not load on the first try. On Safari, the bottom toolbar will say "Connecting to google.com" until I refresh the page or restart the web browser. Internet Explorer and Firefox are no better -- I've triedA two-minute YouTube video will take about 10 minutes to load (if the page loads in the first place, which it often does not). Speed test sites, like speedtest.net, which reported a 0.05 mbps download speed and a 0.20 mbps upload speed, usually do not work. I had to refresh speedtest.net four or five times before the "testing download speed" section worked.
Gmail has become so slow that I have to use the HTML version, and even that will fail to register my commands about half the time.The only way for me to view most webpages in a reliable manner is to Google search for them, then click on the "Cached" page, and then click "Text-only version." Stuff other than text will prevent the page from loading about 50% of the time.We have a Qwest modem but our ISP is called "TIES." We have their "Residential DSL connection," as described here:

When my desktop is on wireless, I get max burst of 2 MBps (Megabytes per sec), or about 16 Mbps (Megabits). Ok.I recently got a pair of Netgear MCAB1001 coax over ethernet adaptersStill getting about 2 MBps, 16 Mbps.The MoCA units are rated for 100 Mbps, or about 12 MBps I'm only getting 17% of rated speed. I know that the performance depends a lot on how many coax splitter you have in the house, maybe even the type of frequency the splitter filter out, how long the runs are, and other hardware cable stuff.But, I wonder why I keep maxing out at 2MBps on both wireless and the MoCA coax setup. Is that just a coincidence? Or is my computer setup weird?This is my test setup:LAN RouterPort 1) Computer #1Port 2) MoCA #1MoCA #2: connected directly to Computer #2.Basically, there is a switch on coax network between Lan Router port 2 and Computer #2. All ports are rated at 100 Mbps, your standard 10/100 ports. I can verify this on the network status.
