Just a quick one a week or two back ended up tagging along to one of the Wifes friends gaff's and it was mentioned the broadband was not working well it would keep cutting out.
So thought here is my chance to keep busy and out of the way.

Check the cable and the filter even the firmware of the router and its settings.

When i looked at the router and thought hang on how old is this router? A quick google said last sold in 2007 but first sold 2004.

I then checked what BT suggested the house should be getting and it was almost double what the router was suggesting.

Checking the specs of the router i ntoiced it was only a adsl modem not a adsl 2 or adsl 2 + router.

So strolled home took the one we use back over and wow we had kick ass broadband speed suddenly it also stopped cutting off and making the connection act "weirdly" as it was describe to me.

So for those of you who have had the same old router and possibly supplier have a quick check and make sure the router is up to the job
