I bought this Belkin : ADSL2+ Modem with Wireless-G Router recently and have been using without any issue for 2~3 week until I notice something happen recently. My Internet seems to slow down a lot Unknown blinking(wireless data transfer) occurs even my PC is off Internet download (http / ftp) seem to hang or stop before it can be complete These has been bothering me for days now. So I ran a few test. 1) Shutting down Bitcomet and download AVG Free for one night Result: Download hangs without complete download 2)Changing the wireless pre-shared key and reset the modem Result: Nothing changes, download speed is as terrible as using a 486 system to play counter-strike 3) Shutdown my firewall (Zone Alarm) Result: Again, nothing change. 4) Test my internet speed at speedtest.net Result: Show my internet seems to running at full speed (download & upload) From all these tests result, I some how assume that my internet has been used by other people beside myself now. What do you guys think ? Is there any other possible cause beside this ?
Maybe you can check the modem for it's status/log on how many IP is connected to your modem. Also, check that you have your DNS set correctly aka streamyx DNS I presume. If all still fails.... blame streamyx, I had a few slow internet days also lately.. ssseeeeshhhh ....
Actually, I've been experiencing the slowdown (especially for certain sites) for the past 2-3 weeks. Something's wrong with Streamyx for sure. But mikegas is right. Check your router and see how many IPs are connected to it.
Hmm.. Wait, you are still here in Malaysia??? I thought you left for the States already. Hmm.. Could it be their DNS servers?
Set to Streamyx DNS, having open would be slow. I don't have the thier DNS number at the moment .. at home onli got
Hey thanks for the info. I've confirm that problem lies on Streamyx (again >.> typical). Thanks for the tip about checking the IP connection in the modem router. Tonight gonna do some CabaalSEA with friends it's been awhile since I retired from MMO
