Re: Upgrading Firmware on Thompson DCM475

Click for full size
I have a DCM 475 too and recently it's been kind of slow and unresponsive at times, either that's a issue with my routers or the disconnections are caused from some sort of switch because it ONLY happened when I played Heroes & Generals and immediately had the game crash, AND as a bonus, I saw the network actually showing that it's not connected to the internet.

Either games can trigger internet loss, or the modem/isp can detect or react to something that triggers it.

Now on the other hand if Teksavvy and the other small isp manages to convince Google to bring their fiber network construction to Canada, it'll be a whole other ballgame.

That is, if my country isn't so stuck up about everything politically.
These days, Canada isn't so much as different as America in terms of the good and bad stuff happening.

Oh right my pingplotter's being going on for almost half an hour and there's no one at home using it, so why is it at 400ms in ping?!

Please tell me you don't have your VoIP SPA before your router........
It should be:
Modem -> Router -> SPA
                -> Computer
 

Having your SPA before the router is probably the cause of the increased ping from hops 2 & 3, not to mention the fact that you're seeing spiking to your router... If you're hard wired into your router, something's seriously wrong with either the cable itself, or a setting on your system.

I changed my network yesterday with a new router and switch.

The switch links the desktops in the living room and ties it to the router in the basement that has a dual band wireless network and gigabit ethernet speeds.

The VOIP connects to the Netgear router directly this time.

Before it was two routers and this caused some issues on latency because the routers were slower and placed together so they delay the packets a bit, with the VOIP on the basement router.

The new router I got I can configure the QoS priority on the VOIP so it uses less bandwidth most likely.

Gigabit routing also works from this desktop to the modem.
