>Are the 2WIRE Bus Hubs any good?<

I've had one running for over 18 months without any problems.

>> Are the 2WIRE Bus Hubs any good?

Ive not heard any major complaints about them and they do seem to be pretty stable.

Looks like i will get one of them then.. Speed as of today the same. will try again later,

Hardly ever come a cross a faulty 2wire. they seem to have a stronger wireless signal than most. other wise I feel its got one of the best laid out internal software formats I've seen on any router. It's easy to find any part your looking for. It's got a week calender which is easy to set up if you've got kids with there own pc and you want to make sure they don't have internet access mid night when they should be asleep. It has child or teen settings as an extra precaution which goes part way in making sure they don't access something they shouldn't.

Some pubs like to set open access without a key with the child setting so there customers can use the net via their laptops while on the premises (the child setting would prevent most opertunities for something inappropreate being viewed. and then cut the access at drinking time automaticaly.

There very well vented so th only one I've come accross with over heating was in a hot comms cabinet with inadiquate ventelation, however if ther is a venerability it's the same vents, it leaves the internals venerable to spills so keep well out of reach of small kids or incontinent pets

Thanks for the good info Ezzer


Just lost my internet connection for a while, new stats are quite intresting

Data rate 7616  448 
Noise margin 6.2  23.0 
Output power 19.8  12.1 
Attenuation 34.0  14.5 

The fastest speed that I know of where i live is 4mb. I would love to beat that.

but line testing still at 128kbps.. but only just come back on.

Funnily enough mine went off just after seven but it has come back with a profile of 7150 still so I'm not too bothered.

You dont live near me do you,

  Excellent

Just tried another test Router showing:

Data rate 7616  448 
 
Noise margin 6.6  23.0 
   
Output power 19.8  12.1 
   
Attenuation 34.0  14.5 
 
Bt Speed Test Results

1. Best Effort Test:  -provides background information.
    IP profile for your line is - 6500 kbps
    DSL connection rate: 448 kbps(UP-STREAM)  7616 kbps(DOWN-STREAM)
    Actual IP throughput achieved during the test was - 5082 kbps
2. Assured Rate Test:  -provides background information.
    Assured Rate IP profile on your line is - 500 kbps
    Actual IP throughput achieved during the test was - 536 kbps

Well Chuffed!!!!  I can play online again!!!

Thanks Again To All

Brilliant. It's nice when reality fits with theory. Thanks for the feedback.
