Slow Speed Using Devolo DLAN200?
Jan 6, 2011
Recently bought a Devolo DLAN200 AV Wireless N Starter Kit. Set up as instructed. Took a while to work out my router settings. The kit now works but is extremely slow to download from internet. Wireless signal is fine. But whether I connect to the wireless, or connect to the ethernet port of the Devolo adapter, it is very slow. Via ethernet, I can get to a speed test site, and it shows less than 0.5Mbs. This compares with 6Mbs if I connect to the router's ethernet or wireless. I have tried other settings on my router, including all combinations of channels, but there is no improvement. I have tried other plugpoints around the house, but no difference. Devolo support on the phone was no use.

I bought a pair of Devolo AV+ adapters yesterday to hook up a couple of bits of kit that don't have wireless capability. Following the (very basic) instructions in the box, I've 'plugged & played' and the data is flowing through my home's electricity cables as I type but I'm not 100% happy.The kit comes with a software programme with which you're supposed to be able to use to keep a check on the various adapters you've set up on the network as well as update the firmware they use - this is the part I'm having trouble with. When I have one of the adapters plugged into the wall socket and connected to my laptop via ethernet cable, the software still cannot find it and shows the message:"No local dLAN device found. Please connect a dLAN device to your network card or check the cable connection."I know it's connected - I'm using it to connect to the net now (I turned off the wireless adapter to make sure the dLAN was working). I've tried both adapters separately, with the other hooked up to my router and without to see if that made a difference and still no.The Devolo instruction manuals are pretty basic & don't take users through a step-by-step process and there is no useful information on their website either.

Recently my desktop has experienced very slow download speeds (~0.11 Mbps), however the upload speed appears to be in line (~2.0Mbps). These numbers are taken from Comcast's speed test (my ISP). It is obviously a problem with my PC because everything else on the network (PS3, Laptop) have great signals with no problems. I just recently reverted the Desktop back to its factory state, and everything was working fine for a couple of months. The desktop in question uses Vista 32-bit and the Belkin Basic USB Wireless Adapter.

I live in the tampa bay area, I have bright house (BHN) as my service provider, which provides a Road Runner Lightning (40/5) package. I previously used BHN's top tier (20/2) back in July (and prior) with no problems.
After converting to Lightning in August of this year (2010). Of course, BHN (and every other provider) wants to force a modem/router down your throat, so I had them bridge it (in short, turn it into a dummy modem with no routing). I had an SMC branded modem gateway at the time. I work from home 2 days a week (so I can spend more time with my kids during morning, lunch, right after work) and this requires me to use QoS to ensure my VOIP work calls don't get dropped, if the family is watching youtube videos or watching netflex.
My network was as follows SMC Modem >WAN IP>>WAN Port>>D-link DIR-655>>Switch Ports>PC1, PC2, PC3
Everything seemed fine (from a usability stand point) till about 2 weeks ago when my upload speed seemed to grind to halt. Normally I was able to upload about 200-300K per second, and I noticed this dropped to about 45K per second during a drop box upload. First thing I did was power cycle both my modem and router (in the proper/usual order). After they both come up, I start using speed test to find out what my upload speeds were. I was getting about 39Mbps down, but only .56Mbps up still. I factory reset my router.... test, similar speeds. Power cycle all computers (just in case), and then modem/router. Tested, similar speeds. Updated the firmware to the latest. Same issue
Called BHN customer service, they factor reset it, but it wasn't in bridge mode. If I by passed the 655, in factory mode (non bridge mode) upload speeds returned to better than expected states. If I bridged the cable modem, upload speeds seemed to crash.
Had BHN replace the modem, seemed fixed for a day, then issue came back. Had them come back out and replace it again, this time with a Motorolla Surfboard modem... same issue. Fine during factory reset, however after they bridge the modem, upload speeds were fine. Told BHN I would take it from there.. Connected up the DIR-655, and upload speeds crashed again. (.6Mbps). Called D-Link Support, and the Chinese English speaking rep seemed to not be listening to me and tried to have me adjust my MTU as well as Wireless settings. Long story short... the rep was a level 0 id10t and I hope D-link will consider hiring better employees/contractors. So I was all about to give up and replace it with a DD-WRT capable router (which it takes me a lot to want to swap hardware), when I discovered the wan shaping was on. Which I thought to myself... nah... QoS has never messed up before... why would it be the cause. Turned off wan shapping... and voila. Issue seemed to be insta-resolved.
Unsatisfied with that... I decided to dig a lil deeper. I turned on Wan shaping again, but decided to set the settings manually instead of auto detect.
Here are the settings I used... (Advanced Tab>QoS)
Enable Traffic Shaping - Checked
Automatic Uplink Speed - Unchecked
Manual Uplink Speed - 5000
Connection Type: Cable or Other Broadand Network
Enable QoS Engine - Checked Automatic Classification - unchecked (this checked seemed to affect my upload speed by about 5-10% during testing) Dynamic Fragmentation - unchecked (this checked seemed to be the worse enemy for upload speed)
While I know I'm not any network guru (still have to use a subnet calculator for subnetting), I think I did a pretty good job drilling down the issue (once I got passed my service provider replacing modems).
Anyways, I've had overall good luck with D-Link products, even have a 5 port 10/100 switch (all metal) from 1998 that works great. Hopefully, D-Link will just either put more documentation on the web, or hire better employees.

I have Verizon DSL. Since I've gotten it turned on in my new apartment it's been randomly DCing, I had a tech come out and tell me it was because I'm too far from the central office(thought I'm only a mile from the office?) and I needed to call and get my mbps reduced from 10, to 5. So, I called and did that and I was still having the same issue. Today another tech came out, told me the same thing, but I needed to be reduced to 3, and left. I called and got it reduced again. They said it should be 3-5 and I was at 5-7. So, now my download speed is actually higher than it was when I was 5-7(it was at 3 mbps usually, now it's 5), but my ping has doubled. Pages are taking longer to load, and when I play any games online there's a noticeable delay. I have been DCing less often, but it's still happening.

I rencently built a computer with a friend. The wireless card I had was fast but began to slow down, went from 12 mbps to just under 1. I switched cards because I figured maybe the card was bad. I now have a netis WF 2113 PCIe card. My mom in the room with the router gets 20-30 mbps while I still get <1 to 1 mbps. I've updated the drivers and looked through the net to find a solution, but to no avail.

I have a Mac and a PC in my home wireless network. ATT Uverse provides me with 16 MB/s internet access. I use the ATT wireless modem/router.With the Mac my download speed is almost 16 MB/s so everything seems working well.With my PC (WIN XP) the download speed is limited to less than 6 MB/s. I know that there is a way to allow my PC to speed up but I do not know how.

I've been gaming all day and my ping has been extremely high. I figured it was someone in my house downloading something but now it's... 1 a.m. I checked my whole house and shut down everyone's computers so I'm positive no one is stealing my bandwidth.

This is the first PC I have ever built, but I built it with a buddy who is very experienced and everything went okay. The computer is maybe 3-4 weeks old now, everything is running fine, until today when I decided I wanted to try streaming some Diablo 3.This is when I discovered my upload speed was absolute garbage.I have verizon FIOS - I pay for 15/5, the download speed is always at 20+ mbps, I have never had any problems with it., but my upload speed is fluctuating between .34-1.5 mbps, changing every second.I know this is a problem with the computer because I brought in my old laptop, unplugged the ethernet from my new desktop, plugged it into the laptop in order to keep all variables the same, and it was getting 25/5 without any hesitation.When I was downloading the drivers for my mobo I installed something called Windows Firewall with Advanced Security(maybe that was with a windows update, im not sure).
Specs of my PC (if this matters)
-Asus P8Z77-V LK
-8g ddr3 Ripjaws
-i7 2700k
-Corsair H60
-EVGA GTX 670
-Crucial 128g M4 SSD
-Caviar Blue 1TB HDD
-750W OCZ Modular PSU

I recently purchased a new HP ENVY dv6 laptop which runs on Windows 8. I've noticed a significant drop in wireless speed on my network compared to my previous laptop, a Sony VAIO, which runs on Windows Vista. I don't believe that it is my network's problem; when I ran Speedtests on my two laptops, side-by-side, the VAIO had a greater download speed. Both computers are also fully updated, including the drivers; the VAIO laptop is four years old, and the HP ENVY dv6 just came out of the factory two weeks ago.

For some reason, the past few days, youtube has been incredibly slow at buffering any video i click on. few days ago, it was fine, nothing has been installed that would hinder it's performance, and nothing to do with my LAN has changed.I just did a speedtest and i got 5.76Mbps download speed. I have no idea what i'm getting from my ISP (who is orange) but it'll probably be 20Mbps. I am using a homeplug, and there are a five wireless devices on the network.

It was monday night when it started playing up. I literally have had it right now. To watch a simple 1 minute long video on youtube I will have to wait about 10 minutes before it is fully loaded. It takes about a minute to load an internet page and it is not just my computer, it is also happening on all other wireless devices and wired (3 laptops, 4 phones, ipad, ipos etc.)

I have recently had problems with slow broadband speeds on my PC. I appear to be getting upto 2mbps when I should be getting close to 40mb. I have been in contact with Sky and they are now sending me a new router, but I now think its not a router problem because I put on my Sony Blu ray player which is connected to the router and loaded up a movie in crackle and its showing that im getting 28mbps & the Xbox 360 doesnt appear to be lagging with any speed issues.I have scanned PC with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware & Spybot - Search & Destroy and a virus scan with Avast which bring up nothing.Also upto a week ago i was using Microsoft security essentials but during a scan it stopped working and kept switching off. I am using Windows 8

My brother is spending far too much time on a silly internet game on his laptop (Maple Story) and its effecting his school and social life. We're trying to find a way to slow down how fast his internet speed is so his game runs poorly, hopefully making him stop playing. I've looked into blocking programs over routers but it seems like a tough job.

I just bought this router. Unfortunately I'm losing close to 3mpbs !
When I was connected directly to the modem i had a little over 12.5 Mbps
Now I'm stuck at 9.5mbps and it won't go higher!
I read a bit over the forum. I tried turning off the QOS but it didn't change a thing.
Here a little extra information;
My internet provider is Cogeco
MY computer is wired
I tried 2 internet tester, both give me the exact same result

My DIR655 is A4 with firmware v.135.
My normal uplink speed is above 4 Mbps but the speed goes down to 0.4 to 0.8 Mbps. The above unit was received from D-Link as a replacement for the same reason, but it worked for at lease 12 hours.
If the power is OFF/ON cycled, the normal speed comes back but last only about 10 minutes.

My ISP has increased the speed on their link on my side I got a new cisco 887. I replaced 877 with Cisco 887 and copied all the configuration from Old cisco 877 to new Cisco 887 Router.Now My users can connect to the servers and which are in main office (remotely) and they can access internet everything is fine.
The only big problem is Users are complaining Network is very very slow.Do I need to change any settings on my new router? [code]
