DSL Issues

leeshields — Tue, 20 Dec 2011 16:14:59 +0000

Well it would appear a string of faulty routers may be the problem.

It’s a little hard to accept as an engineer but I have 3 x DG 834 netgear routers here all of which drop the line repeatedly.

Router 1 was disconnecting a while ago and I had a different model (but still the 834) on the shelf and that seemed to stop the problem.

When it happened again I got another from a friend and that immediately showed the same issues. Naturally this made me believe it was a line issue.

After a week my line speed had dropped from 5600 to 2880kbps.

I’ve replaced them with a new Netgear N300 and so far it hasnt had a single disconnect in 4 days. Hopefully the speed will recover when BT get round to it. That said the engineer in me still isnt convinced there isnt a line fault

We are currently having serious ADSL issues that are slowing emails and preventing access to the internet, naturally this is a major issue and we are working to sort the problems out so please bear with us.

New Website

leeshields — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 20:10:01 +0000

As you can see I’m currently revamping the Apogee Technology website. As the site is wordpress based it’s much simpler to move. The main change is the new theme uses a custom post type to manage the portfolio rather than a post category.
