Here is a good one that someone here may be able to answer. I'm using a High Speed Cable TV Modem (100mbs) but when a Router is connected it's slow like Dial-Up. Router is a Linksys Wireless-G 2.4GHz Broadband 4 hardwire ports and wirless.
What has been Tried:
Disabled all FireWalls 4 - no change- turned back on after testing
Shorter wires - no change
Reset System - no change
Reset Router - no change
Reset Modem - no change
Hard Wired All Computers - no change
Tried Wirless on all Computers - Router Couldn't find them after lenghty Installing and filling in all the blanks No Connection at All
Tried to find some settings in my computer to change Router Speed - NONE
Called Linksys - no real help
The only way to have High Speed is to connect directly to the modem with a USB or Ethernet Cable. Then and only then is it Lightning Fast.
I'm not a computer wizard, but a Router is just supposed to relay connection to different computers on a home network, right? So why is it like Dial-Up when the router is being used? At first I thought it was just the way it was, but now I think the Linksys may not be operating properly. Then again it maybe something stupid that I'm missing (A Hammer might fix it good :devious: ).
Oh, and just so you know, my computer Has HyperThreading 2 Processers 3.2Ghz each, 1.5GB Ram, and Optimum Online Service (100Mbs service). It has to be a Router Problem.
Any Suggestions? Before We Try the Hammer? Or Just get the Hammer?
