Re: Speed Issues

wireless speed tests are a bit dodgy at the best of times and saying wireless and superhub in the same sentence is even worse. If you want to do any reliable speed tests you want to be doing them wired and off peak to avoid network congestion. What site are you using for your speed tests? I have always used speedtest.net with the london server but different locations work better than others for different people. Try 3 or 4 different servers (e.g London, Maidenhead, Birmingham) and see what gives you the best results and then you that one servers and run tests throughout the day and see what you get.

Although some peeps will get 30-31mbits that is pretty much the max at optimum conditions so don't be disappointed if you get 28-29.

Btw, before you run the speed tests disabled the firewall on the hub and ip flood detection if they haven't already made that the default in the latest firmware.
