Mate of mine has a Livebox e600 modem/router thing which he got from orange broadband. He gets awful packetloss when he trys to play games or so anything (even teamspeak). It has been roumered that alot of pcs on orange broadband get this problem, but i got a hold of some info from his livebox thing and was wondereing if someone could give it a look over.

ADSL Top Refresh ADSL firmware version : A2pBT009c1.d17d
Connection mode : G.DMT
Type : Fast
Noise margin (dB) : 20.4
Attenuation (dB) : 55.0
Attainable download rate (kbps) : 4288
ADSL status : Connected [0]

Downstream Upstream
Rate (kbps) 608 288

And he has 4 clients connected, 2 with wireless i think

I know what attenuation,noise,etc is but im not sure on the figures, like what is good and whats bad. Althought i had a scan online and from what i saw that attenuation is pretty high. Could someone give me there opinion on this summary?

Thanks =D
 
gamers will stress the ISP connection or the router/modem.
your first action should to find the latest firmware for each component on
your LAN.

second, find the ISP gateway address, or the DNS address and then use
run->cmd /k pathping $the-address-noted

this will sample the entire path to the address and note reliability numbers as
%packet loss (should be zero :) )

losses beyond your ISP gateway are on the internet and you just need to accept
that as a fact of life. losses anywhere from your modem to your system are
yours to be fixed.
