Cable modem Wireless router issues Virgin\telewest
Anyone recormend a good wireless router to connect to telewest\Virgin cable... reason I ask is i'm using a Netgear and when the connection is through this instead of a 10m broadband it won't run more than 6 or 7 tested to blueyonders servers and direct on the cable modem it runs 1.1mbps... i.e. 10m
Still have an issue with Virgin though as come evening time the speed drops to 2m if i test to anywhere other than virgins test server which is crap, my mate gets 6.5. 7m from all the usual broadband speed test places and he's on a cheapish DSL connnection and paying hlf what i am
Anyhow for now need a proven router that doesn't throttle the bandwidth as the Netgear does... And TBH i never thought that would be the problem, I'm an IT guy and a Cisco CCNP so know a little about networks but the stuff I work with is good gear and it never even crossed my mind that the router would knacker the bandwidth like that, I mean its routing foook all and its still ****e... learn something new every day
so recormendations please, tested ones if poss
