Hi guys, I am just a geezer trying to figure out what to do about my line speeds.
After a few minutes, hours or days, my net speeds fall from about 7.5 mb/s ( I have a 10 mb/s line) down to around 1 mb/s with latency rising from 27ms to over 3000ms. If I reboot my N300 router it goes back up to normal speeds for a while.
right now it is ping 2023 ms, down 0.802 Mbps up 0.241 Mbps
the router is a NETGEAR DDG 2200
MWEB are my service provider and they have reset the socket a few times and any improvement is fleeting.
I have tried to download a dd-wrt firmware upgrade but I am using Apple and that seems to not be possible.
What next? Oh and if it is deemed that I need a new router what can you suggest. I live in a small home with two to four devices connected.
Warm Regards to you all.
