said by stufried  :I use the wrt54gl with tomato firmware and love it. I was using dd-wrt which was far more powerful, but I was losing my registration more. Also, tomato has a great utility to determine who your bandwith is being used and reprovision the same. WRT54GL with Thibor HyperWRT here, no issues.

That model from linksys is very old and there have been problems with it. I'd get the wrt54gl, as another person has recommended.

The best way to resolve is to get a router with QOS. If you search this forum you should find a few. Linksys wrt54g v4 and down are probably highly recommended. Xycell(?), Trendnet(?), and Dlink all have some models that can handle QOS. |

| I have two computers and a Vonage device hooked up to a Linksys BEFSR41 V3 wired router.
I do a lot of UL and DL, but when I do, sometimes Vonage sound quality suffers (we can hear them fine, but we sound garbled to them). I have to pause the UL/DL in this case, which sometimes takes up to 20 seconds before it improves the quality.
I was recommended to come here to find out what could be done. I was hoping there was a way to configure the router so that the port the Vonage adapter is hooked up to could have first priority at all times, and therefore when a phone is being used, the computers would have to share the remaining bandwidth. I have checked my configuration screen (Firmware Version: 1.04.17) but there is nothing about QoS.
Thanks in advance. |
