351577 2005-05-02 22:24:00 Heya,

Over the weekend, we moved the computer from one part of the room to a different part of the room.

Ever since the speed on Jeststream has been pathetic. Like I am only getting between 1-4K download on Bittorrent. The files are recent so there shouldn't be any problem there.

The only change that has been made is that I have not plugged in a telephone cord into the line filter, only on the modem side. Would anyone think that not having a telephone cord on the line filter could cause a significant speed decrease, or am I just imagining things.....

351578 2005-05-03 00:06:00 This may be entirely off track - but you haven't added an extra phone handset have you? I made that mistake once and things ground to a halt. annie (6010)
351579 2005-05-03 00:51:00 Nope, just not re-plugged in the telephone side of the line filter. Obelix (752)
351580 2005-05-03 01:08:00 Have you tried a speed test, plod found a good one here (radio.wise.net.nz) Rob99 (151)
351581 2005-05-03 02:14:00 Got it plugged in to the correct filter socket?

Unplug all your phones, faxes, alarm, etc, and see if that makes a difference. If it does, replace one at a time until you find the villian.

351582 2005-05-03 07:17:00 Have tried Rob99's speed test, and got a result of 58-63k, which is just slightly higher than a friggin modem :angry

Hvae plgged in telephone cable and not made a difference.

If over limit what do Xtra shut you down too.

351583 2005-05-03 07:23:00 If you get capped by Xtra you will go down to about 56-64kbps and it's not constant either it's horribly up and down...

How much MB/GB have you used?

351584 2005-05-03 08:20:00 Used 29GB, but normally do not get capped, I think we can assume that I have been capped this month :mad: :groan: :horrified Obelix (752)
351585 2005-05-03 08:23:00 Hmm yeah I've only been capped a couple of times but you certainly notice it!
