50 meg NETGEAR WNR2000 can i slow down?
 

pc is on hardwired port (1) and 360 hardwire port (2)
(( wireless as been.
b4 speed checker got 50 meg no problems but when he`s online the 360 live slows me net down to speed test 10meg.
this is the 1st time i used router this way.

question is can i turn the speed down on port (2)???

Re: 50 meg NETGEAR WNR2000 can i slow down?
 

Nope!

Re: 50 meg NETGEAR WNR2000 can i slow down?
 

To say just nope! is not helpfull... (some explanation to back it up would be).

You may not be able to specify the exact amount of bandwith available to each port like some routers but you may have some luck with the QOS settings..

You can set each port a priority. Alternativly you can sedt QOS to specific applications like skype or a certiain game. Im not sure about how you would tell the router a specific application based on a console so I would go for setting it port level.

Read the section in your manual (available online if you have binned it) that referes to QOS.

Hope this helps.

will check the book. if cant find will download.

Resolve the issue with Live slowing down downloading, as it shouldn't do that.

Don't obsess over speedtests, if all seems to be working as it should be it probably is.

Go to http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/index.html

Tick the Disable SPI Firewall button, that might help.

I have the router and gave the response as per :)

This router only offers port based QoS and QoS only applies outbound so unless the upstream is getting saturated it's a non-issue.

Better to figure out what's going on that QoS stuff down just because it appears to slow down a speed test which could be BS anyway.

i get all diffrent results when using this router-mostly between 10 and 50 meg down.The upload never changes,about 1.7.As i only really use for xbox its my upload i care about.

I tried netgear helpline-not much help.

SHOULD I BE CONCERNED WITH THE DOWNLOAD FLUCTUATIONS,ALSO THE LAN LIGHT CHANGES ORANGE/GREEN,SORRY ABOUT CAPS.

aNY ADVICE U COULD GIVE A THICKO XBOX USER ABOUT HIS SET UP BRODBANDINGS? PLEASE?

Re: 50 meg NETGEAR WNR2000 can i slow down?
 

Best advice is to hit your caps lock button...

:rolleyes:

Other advice is to post the usual up/down signal levels/snr (not any MAC or serial numbers) then the techies on here can see if there's an immediate problem

Re: 50 meg NETGEAR WNR2000 can i slow down?
 

All within operational parameters so the issue must be elsewhere, what do the 50Mb support line staff say when you call in about the supposed issue with your router.

50Mb Support 0800 052 0431

Re: 50 meg NETGEAR WNR2000 can i slow down?

i unplug is >live< rj45 and 50 meg is 100% ok.

Re: 50 meg NETGEAR WNR2000 can i slow down?
 

Oh yeah its the port settings you want to change, have you tried broadbandings advice.

Re: 50 meg NETGEAR WNR2000 can i slow down?
 

Moldova i talked to the 50mb staff,they sent the engineer friday,he said he couldn`t do anything about a router issue,I talked to netgear-they told me to talk to virgin.

It`s not huge problem as i mainly use the connection for xbox-just wierd sometimes my lan light for the computer conection is orange,sometimes green,i might try netgear again.

Re: 50 meg NETGEAR WNR2000 can i slow down?
 

there is no problem with the router . i say again no problems with router.
pc on is own is 100% ok. just when the 360 is on eats the internet speed.
