IOLBB Possible Fix

Opiate8

Hi All - have been having same problems with IOLBB and its flakey speeds; may have a possible fix.
I am using an opertaing system a bit like XP ;O) that the IOLBB driver that came in the box does not work with without a lot of hassle. I downloaded the orginal driver from ftp://ftp.europe.zyxel.com/p630-11/driver/p630-11_1.7.1.1_Windows98SE_WindowsME_Windows2000_WindowsXP__Standard.zip

I had been logging in with the IOLBB connection butr the install of the above driver gave me another dial up link called ZxZEL ADSL. I opened this put in my user name and password and lo ad behold went from 17kilobit bandwidth benchmark to a 283.1kilobit result.

Might be worth trying. . .

very very unlikely it was that.. just proly loged in at a good time.

I'm on UTV - we get the same modem. I'm downloading this driver now, it's a more recent one than was included on the CD I got. Maybe it'll solve my UTV-related woes aswell

Well tried logging in under both and was def better with generic driver - anyway else has same results please let us know!

I think a previous poster was right - just a fluke !

I don't use IOL's supplied modem I use an Efficient Networks Speedstream ADSL Router and I still get crap speeds

Well logged on to ESAT dial up at 11.59 and then to ZyXEL dial up at 12.01. . . see the difference for yourselves....

I tried those drivers on UTV - no improvement

This is with the ZyZEL Dial Up more or less 300k faster!

I'm using the regular drivers and here are the results of my test:

rather then doing speed test try and download a file preferably from iol webspace and see what speeds you are getting and see if it differs differently.

Seems like it may be fixed or on its way to being so; logged in with standaerd IOL driver and its fine 380k - downloaded 80MBs of music in 18 mins :O)
