Hi everyone and thanks in advance for any help you can provide. I have recently upgraded from ADSL to Full fiber (BT Openreach put an ONT in the property) Previously i had been using my ASUS RT-AC68U AC1900 with a Netgear modem and i was very happy with the performance. Unfortunately i cant...

Hi everyone, I'm pretty techie, but even I can't figure this out... This is my first post on a forum like this, so I thought I'd give it a shot. On wireless OR wired connections, speedtest.net automatically selects my ISPs server since I have their internet. The reason behind this, would be...

So I've moved into a new apartment with an OTO fiber connection inside a media box (metalbox along with circuit breakers) right next to the main door. I was able to squeeze the modem from the provider into it, but WIFI is weak, as is to be expected). I have the option to route a cable connection...

I have the Z590 AORUS XTREME WATERFORCE with the 10gb network adapter so it should be capable of 10gb. I had ATT come out and check that the slow speeds weren't being caused by them. They said it's my hardware limiting me. I updated my network adapter to the latest version from their official...

I want to terminate a single fiber cable that's armored with a tiny (~1mm) steel spiral around the cover of the fiber. How can I take the armor off without damaging the fiber?

Hey! So I recently bought a new router. (TP-LINK A8 Archer AC1900) It's a Gigabit, 5G router with fiber optic support. (I have 1GB internet) My old router (Huawei EchoLife HG8143A5) has a dedicated fiber optic port at the bottom wich is perfect for me since my internet comes trough a singlemode...

Hi all, Just set up a fiber connection for a small company and that is supposed to give near 1000/1000 download/upload. I am currently testing the speeds on my work laptop, server, and spare laptop. Regardless of where I'm connected, it seems like all speeds are the same. Connected to network...

So I have a fiber connection and as said in the title I get 200 down 100 up on a Wi-Fi connection and I get a pretty good 30 ping in most games when it's not spiking to around 100-200 for about 5 seconds on average and then goes back down. However, I've noticed a pattern across all games I...

i have fiber internet and my internet cuts off for 1 or 2 seconds, this happends 2 or 3 times in a minute, for my personal usage its sooo anoying, bcs i stream and play warzone and lag for 1 sec during gun fights. i found out in my router settings that i have a high Optical Module Input Power...

Not sure what else to try. I have tried just about everything i can think of and worked with my ISP. They have replaced all the equipment in my home and given me a new port elsewhere and nothing seems to solve the issue. I have fiber to the home. This is super frustrating when playing games...

Hello, recently I had an internet fiber optics cable installed in my apartment. I had some issues with the furniture locations etc. so I asked my ISP for a longer cable to connect from the router to the installation box attached to the wall. For some unknown reason they said they are unable to...

Hi all, I'm using a Jiofiber fiber Internet connection and have a Jio router for the same. It's a dual band router hence transmits both 2.4 and 5ghz frequencies for devices to connect to. I have a Samsung galaxy a7 tablet which supports both 2.4 and 5ghz frequencies but I'm only able to connect...

Hi. As the title says, my router's WiFi network keeps disappearing every couple days and I have to power it off for about 30 seconds before it shows back up again. It was only doing this on the 2.4 Ghz band but now it's both 2.4 and 5Ghz bands. The wired LAN works just fine without issue. There...

I need an ONT but it must be best performance. Which brand do you recommend? Ericsson, Nokia etc.

Hello. I recently upgraded to a gigabit fiber plan. I am getting fast speedtest results (@750 Mbps up and down) on a wired laptop, directly to the modem and through my router. However, my desktop seems to top out around 500 up and 350 down. The desktop has 2 NIC cards and same results with...

Hello, I hope some one is able to help. I've recently moved house, had fiber installed and currently using the vodaphone WiFi hub. I have speeds around 75 mbs (verified on multiple devices) When it comes to my PS4 I have around 13mbs and intermittent extream lag. I have tested my other devices...

Hi, we just moved in to a new apartment, where we have fiber internet, which goes to a switch first (Inteno XG6846-R1), then from the switch to the router with the normal cable. I supposed to have 250/250 mbps but when I do the the speed test, the results are 95/95. I have never used fiber or...

Hello everyone I am currently using an aging Linksys E3200 router to connect to the internet (fiber). My ISP has steadily been increasing our speed, and we are now up to 250/250 Mbps, and if I connect my PC directly to the plug in the wall, this is what I get (and then some). I've tested using...

I've been struggling trying to establish a Gigabit connection to my Askey RTV1907VW (provided by ISP) on my ASUS X52JT which, despite being 9 years old, still manages to let me operate my everyday chores effortlessly. My ISP plan provides 1Gbps through FTTC, and it successfully displays on the...

Hi, I have fiber connection at my home with download speed of 150mbps but each day the speed drops from 9pm to 11pm to below 10mbps. I have contacted my internet provider and they are unable to find any problem with my connection and moreover my friends also use same Isp and they don't face such...

I've got a Internet connection plan that provides me upto 50Mbps till 180GB it was much higher before but i changed it to their lowest plans now everytime i hit FUP i get slowed down to a mere 3Mbps, but for the last 2 months or so after browsing 2-3 days in 3Mbps my internet somehow peaks to...

Hi, when I connect my ethernet cable through my fiber modem I have no internet access, but when I connect the cable directly to my router it works fine. It has worked well before but sometimes, maybe once every month, it stops working for some reason. I get faster download speed when I am...

I know there have been countless threads about this, but I couldn't find anything about this: My CPU usage is around 10% idle even though Task Manager is reporting that Chrome is using 1% for Spotify, Ableton in the background using ~1%, excel ~0.1%, etc, the point is that the final reported...

I have a question. If the cpu in my desktop is blown, and that is the only issue, will that keep the light on my motherboard from lighting up? I know you can't power on the motherboard without a working cpu, but I am just wondering if, without the cpu, will the light still come on. If not, then...

Hey guys, So a long time ago I tried to install a bunch of Windows update at once and then I got the error. Now every time I boot my computer, I get the message but my computer is still able to work and I can log into my desktop. The error goes something like this. "Windows is configuring...

I know between GTX 560 and GTX 750, GTX 750 performs better but I wanna know if the performance gap between them is so much? Providing a technical comparison will be much appreciated. Thanks!

Just bought a new rig and pieced it together. Was working fine yesterday while I was going through the BIOS. I'm waiting on my OS to come into the mail so in the meantime I wanted to check out some more settings in BIOS today. I go to turn it on today, and it shuts off literally 1 second after I...

Hi all, I have a great opportunity to build a new system, but I'm stuck when it comes to graphics card considerations: I need to run two monitors for productivity, and this is (by far) going to be the PC's primary use. This work will involve Adobe CS and 3d modelling, and so a graphics card...

I've recently started playing around with my cpu and motherboard, here are the few things's I can't find answers online quite easily: 1. As far as I know, we should not pass 1.4vcore for a "safe" overclock (x79). Is this because it causes more temperature, or is this because voltage harms the...
