    In the evenings when people are watching Netlifx (including me sometimes) the "6Mbps" DSL is more like 0Mbps DSL. Why?

I restart my modem, and it works again for a while, then it kicks me off... sort of an endless cycle.
    Seriously, you need to rewire the inside and use shorter telephone wiring and get a real short cord to connect from the jack to the router.
    (You can get those short cords from RadioShack)

    Then go into the router config pages and see what the reported signal rates are. More important in your context, is the SNR margin.

        The amount of errors reported is sickening! It might as well have GSCs!

          Do you think my modem is at fault? I do not think so as it's the latest model.

            It could be outside, possibly before the box.

                The modem still could be bad.

                  Re: netflix, the network destoryer

                  Netflix pisses me off too, great for home but still if you dont have a good connection you and everyone suffers.

                  Here was my solution: RedBox

                  Wait for a computer to get a virus (or proactively let a virus on there) then tell them it came from netflix website. Do your computer voodoo and the virus is gone

                  Of course they will go back, so wait a a few days and find out whos still using it. Throttle thier connection to 56k.... then you get a call and tell them of you must have the netflix virus again. Fix that and warn them again and offer an alternative solution, redbox, of course they will go back to the site. Here you have several choices, fuck with them some more. Redirect the site to something morally disturbing to them (who doesnt run thier own dns servers?) or throttle the connection to those sites.

                  After throttling the connection stupid sister in law got the drift and my connection speed was resolved (and my router finally had a break). Did i feel bad? Hell no, she didnt pay a dime for ANYTHING. mooch.

                      Or you know... you could just block the netflix domain since you own the router... or throttle it down to unwatchable.

                        then i hear "well it works at my friends house or when i take it to work"

                        it was throttled so it took almost 5 minutes to load the main page. no video was going to play over that.

                        I tried making it fair for everyone, but some people just dont like cooperating and contributing equally so i had to take a passive aggressive appraoch

                        In the past i have been accused of "manipulating the internet for no good reason, blocking a few domains would raise the flag so i found a way that makes me look innocent
