Re: [Internet] Bell throttling?

Many consumer grade routers do wonky things when they run low on available memory.

@HeadSpinning, Ok, so that means the router needs to be restarted once in a while. It hadn't been turned off for many months.

But on Monday I did restart both the router and the modem, and didn't seem to have any effect. It was only after I removed the router and then put it back in service that there was any change in speed.

But good to know, next time I'll have something to test.

@Nat, No torrents here, but definitely will follow your suggestion to get a better one next time. Currently it's just a plain WRT54g. It's been solid for 5-6 years now, but heavily used.... maybe its time has come.

Thanks.
