My bloody router is doing my head in!!
Says I have great connection to the router, but the router is not connected to the NET –
Yet it still lets me surf the net, albeit s l o w l y, and then conks out after an hour or so – Reseting the router gives me another couple of hours.
Fuck its annoying… anyone have any ideas?… Trying to write an essay here!
Have you tried logging on to the router to see if it has any logs or status info that makes sense?
Just point your web browser at it – Belkins are normall http://192.168.2.1, I think (mine is).
Something that can be the cause of very slow speeds is not having an ADSL filter installed properly on your phone. This would not explain the disconnects, though. But worthwhile checking anyway.
I’m not sure I would beleive the Wireless Monitor – try switching to use Window’s zero config option.
If you can, try plugging your PC straight into the router and see if that helps. It will at least let you narrow down if it the wireless part that is broken.
If you do a scan for wireless networks, do you get more than yours listed? If so, try reconfiguring the wireless channel number that your Belkin uses so it is at least 5 away from the nearest contender.
think I may have cracked it – it completely stopped working earlier, and noticed no lights were comeing on, so tried it without the extension wire, and its now worked flawlessly for the last few hours… not entirely sure how… but hey!

How do you do that? Broke again!
Ahhhhhhhhhh this is so frustrating!
How will I know what settings are wrong in the menu?!
Boooooooooooooo
Boring essay to do too 🙁
allright turks,
Your ISP’s network might intercept all attempts you make to connect to the web (by means of the HTTP protocol on TCP port 80), and route your request through a transparent web proxy cache, technically known as an interception proxy. NTLworld used Inktomi Traffic Servers, but is now introducing NetApp NetCache appliances. Your ISP does this in order to reduce the traffic on their backbone, and to reduce the traffic they exchange with other operators’ networks. If a proxy cache works well, it can also improve performance for the customer, by supplying locally cached copies of web pages and graphics much more quickly than by fetching them from the remote original web server.However, when the proxy web cache is overloaded, it can make your web browsing appear slower than the nominal speed of your cable modem.

this is usually what the problem is when ure http traffic is slow on ntl/telewest etc.
You can specify different caches within internet options, next time u on the phone to ure isp ask em if they have other ips that you can put in if you can be bothered.
i usually just ride it out when it happens to me.
