Hi guys This is a bit off topic, but I'm having big issues with keeping a dsl modem connected without freezing up. We are in West Melton and a number of km from the exchange. Line stats are below though I don't understand much of it. I replaced the linksys modem + wireless router with Netgear modem and separate wireless router. I keep just having one or other freeze up and I have to traipse off and cycle power to it.
The other contribution issue is that the family are thrashing the network resources. We have three adult children at home so at any time we can have five computers and a similar number of tablets, phones etc connected to the network. I did get better reliability from separating the modem and router functionality but I am still getting things crashing. Is there a better setup to give me greater reliability? I read somewhere that Draytek make some routers more comfortable with poor lines (available at Nicegear I hear?). I'm getting so frustrated I'm also wondering about a separate "control" network that can cycle the power to the devices! Any help much appreciated.
