Re: well i have ordered infinity


[re: TheBaron] [link to this post]
 
I moved from O2 - 3 megs down and 1 meg up ...

Mind you that WAS good, Orange via BT managed 135k-160k (yes, "K")

Running at 55 megs down and 8 megs up on homeplugs! Will get 17 megs up if I use multiple streams.

Just watch out for the Homehub 3 type B, this version of the hub causes me no end of problems (see my other threads). Jusat read the label on the bottom.

I use McAfee with Infinity and get the full 37Mbps almost all the time. It does slow the computer on bootup though as it searches for updates.

Type A ... lucky you ... you hopefully should not see the nasty bug which switches some of us to under 1 meg on our LAn (fixed line) ports when the line gets a reset of some sort (usually a remote poke by the BT systems!).

Some people have reported that the Type A hub does not have as good a throughput as the type B though ... so you may get a lower speed with it compared to a Type B - but it's all swings and roundabouts with Infinity 2 ...

Let us know how it goes ... all useful info, good or bad!

Mine's been good at 55 megs now for a couple of weeks. Upload? Well, the single thread tester shows about 8 megs, but running multiple threads shows it will go at 17 megs - so it's good to go at the mo'.
