1173778 2011-01-30 12:10:00 Just installed a new modem/router (Netcomm NB6Plus4Wn as recommended on this forum (thanx, Chilling Silence)), and speed has increased from 6.4Mbps to this (ping has halved too)

I should look into a new one at some point too. My current one crashes and overheats as soon as you get two people on it, or if you game for a few hours with no ventiliation.

No, was a D-Link 504T/TX Modem/Router with four port switch (V. B3) from Telecom, supposedly ADSL2+ compliant, reported itself as such on status page. I never tried tweaking it or updating firmware though.
I live about 1km from the exchange, so I always thought I should have had better speed (we are getting Whisper boxes up this way soon (Wellington North), so it may get even faster). :banana
I only bought the new one for Wifi, because I also bought a netbook (chrissy pressie):).
