Do i really need to mess with duplex settings of the network card? i have tried everything and really dont know what to set it at. half duplex 100, or full duplex 100 or autonoegotiate for 100fd or 100hd.

Since i bought my new router - Linksys WRT160N i get intermittent speeds and disconnects, tried my old Linksys and that was the same, but te direct connection from pc to modem is fine, so god knows what i have done wrong, i should never have messed in the 1st place i guess.

incidentally, these are the new figures with the new router:

Downstream Lock : Locked

Downstream Modulation : QAM64
Downstream Symbol Rate : 5056.941 Ksym/sec
Downstream Interleave Depth : taps32Increment4
Downstream Receive Power Level : 6.0 dBmV
Downstream SNR : 35.0 dB

Upstream Lock : Locked
Upstream Channel ID : 2
Upstream Frequency : 22000000 Hz
Upstream Modulation : QPSK
Upstream Symbol Rate : 2560 Ksym/sec
Upstream transmit Power Level : 27.8 dBmV

Maximum Downstream Data Rate : 20480000
Maximum Upstream Data Rate : 768000
Maximum Upstream Channel Burst : 1600

Your upstream power is abit too low, you might need a tech out to adjust the power in your street cab.
