What did I do?

    So i am puzzled with what I have done wrong. Any ideas. I have Virgin media 500 meg unlimited with phone in my house.

    I installed an ASUS wifi router to increase speed and coverage in the house and coverage and speed increased nicely. I set the virgin hub to modem mode, connected an ethernet wire to my ASIS and my 5g wifi jumped to between 180 to 230 meg. Was very happy.


    I then tidied up the wires.:( Now my wifi is topping out at 60 meg. WTF?

    Connections as follows.

    Virgin line into virgin superhub. Wifi turned off and in modem mode.

    Supplied ASUS ethernet cable from Superhub into ASUS. ASUS handing wifi.

    House phone base station 2.4 GHZ, plugged into phone port of superhub.

    WDCLOUD connected to ASUS via ethernet cable.


    All equipment on a windowsill, side by side. (interference maybe?)



    Any ideas what is wrong?

    You may have managed to make only sufficient connection to get 100mbit ethernet to the ASUS router; but reseating the coax wouldn't have fixed that unless it also jiggled the ethernet cable enough.

    Could be. I just reseated the coax and rebooted. Away it went. Currently have wifi of 280 meg!
