For past couple of days have noticed my d/l speeds are seriously slow!
From a general website ie Sony.co.uk just d/l a 24.5mb file with an average rate of 120kb/sec
So I ran a speed test came back at 8.11mb
D/l from gmail 180kb/sec Facebook play a game on there and just crashes due to speed, yet an adult site I have no problems
All the while broadband speed tests all report with roughly same speed of around 8mb
Am using WiFi connection is excellent. The other day tried to d/l 30mb file from Adobe and I gave up as speed was 25-40kb/sec
Windows took 3 hours just to d/l 1 update.
And I am sorry if I offended anyone with some of my earlier posts, just that someone near to me died and was not in the best of moods.

To Gateway hop, you need to Disconnect and then re-Connect your PPP Internet session.
To do a Disconnect of your PPP Internet session with the ISP - you need to login to the modem/router interface and look for the Disconnect button to click on. On the Thomson modem/routers you will typically find it in the box marked Internet as shown here. Once disconnected, you then click Connect.
