I have a Motorola Modem (SB5120) from Comcast, I have connected to a Belkin router (F5D5230-4)
The Problem I am having is that when I hook the Modem alone I have super speed downloads and I stay connected all the time.
When I am hooked to the modem and then to the router, my speed is cut almost in half and on some sites I get disconnected??
One site told me to ck my TCP config to see if I can increase my TCP connections.
It was set at auto sense, I called Belkin and they said that I should change the setting to 10baseT, and to download the new Firmware from there site.
I did all of the above, still slow, but a bit faster. Still get disconnected but it finds it self and reconnects most of the time?
What I would like to do is connect the main computer direct to the modem and then the other 2 computers thur the router.
But I am not sure if I can, or not and how??
The Modem has a USB port or a Wier connector, but you can only use one??
Is there a splitter of some kind that I can get??
Sorry for such a long first post!! But i am trying to give you all the info I can.
O yea I run a Dell 4400 Pentium 4, 1.6 MHz, 512 ram, 165 gig HD, CDrom, CD burner and Floppy
Thanks!!!!
