Verizon DSL Connection Became Slow |
|
|
I signed on Verizon DSL online service 10 days ago and the connection
speed has been good untill two days ago (Oct. 19, 2004). Now I can
only get about 20% speed I used to have, i.e. it takes me 20 min. to
download a file while it only took 3-4 min. for the same size before
Oct. 19, 2004.
Does anyone have the same or similar situation on Verizon DSL and how
to fix it? Thanks ahead! |

Try the Verizon forum at http://www.dslreports.com
It's an excellent site. Note that it's "reportS" and not "report"
Good Luck,

I'm on SBC and get this happens to me every week or two.
A `ping` of my gateway confirms it -- packets are being held
for a second or two. releasing and restoring the DHCP lease
corrects it.
There are many coincidences and evil packets than can get
equipment confused. A hard reset of modem & router (or PC)
should help. Sometimes it's necessary to leave a modem off
for 2-5 minutes to allow it to retrain.

It was a good forum until they disrespected batterup, now the site is
only good for testing. |

That well may be; I have no clue about batterup. All I know is that I found
answers there that I couldn't find on Usenet.
YMMV
