Sky router sucks doggy doodoo

Arrghhhh

Been having problems with the connection from my PDA.
It was very slow.

Swapped back again to my old netgear and have a solid connection again...

Would upgrading the FW help do you think?

Thanks Paul

What issues is it that your having exactly, is it just slow speed or dropping connections as well?

i had problems with PDA using WPA encryption. Swapping over to no encryption meant i didn't lose any connection. I know it wasn't the PDA as using the old speedtouch 580 and WPA worked fine.

Now on SKY Max LLU connection

I had similar connection issues with my laptop... i came to the conclusion that the sky netgear router was pants so i hooked up my old 11mbs linksys and it was rock solid although the downstream sync speed was pretty low @ 5.5 Mb.

I bought me a nice shiney new linksys WAG54GS (ADLS2+) last week and its performed flawlessly with sync speeds of 7 - 8Mb ... netgear truly is doo doo

Just very slow accessing the network over wifi, old DG834G router works fine.
