Dear Walt,

Try to keep some kind of log of your speeds over the next day or two. I strongly recommend that all and any who are having speed problems do this. I want to  determine if several members are experiencing slowdowns at the same time.. A good place to test speed is Speedtest:

Walter, do you ever get decent speeds now?

Your hardware sound more than sufficient to me.

Are you using a router? Which transmitter are you pointed at, the shcool or the milkhouse?

Best,

Peter

Peter,
 
Have done what you suggested and I still have a problem with sending and receiving. When sending and receiving does work it is slow.  I installed a new HP system earlier in the year running on Vista operating system.  It has 2GB of memory and a 500GB hard drive. Does this system have enough "ZUM - ZUM"?  At the time my new system was installed I switched from SoverNet to Google. Does anybody else have a communication problem with Vista or Google??.  We have an SVBC connection that was formerly at the Fire Department.  Our location is at 68 Poplar Drive.
 
Thanks, 
 
Walt

Sorry.

Dear Waltere and Carolyn,

Please try these remedies.

1. Disconnect the electricity from the little black box (with a green or amber light on it) from the power source (all outlet). If you also have a router, disconnect the power supply from it as well.

   Wait five minutes. Reconnect the power supplies to  box and to router. Reboot your computer. give it time to connect. See if you have a connection.

2. If that doesn't work, carefully check the cables that run into the black box, into the router, and into the computer. These should be tight and not come loose with a slight tug. You can remove these and then plug them in a again, but beware. If you do not plug the cables in exactly as they were before you unplugged them, you can damage your equipment.

We find that many if not most of the problems members of the coop experience are caused by their own connections and not ours.

If neither of these remedies works, let me know. Include your street address so that I will know which transmitter you are receiving signals from.

Best,

Peter

Peter - still getting on about 2 hrs/day - having trouble now so don't know if you will get this. We may have to go back to dialup cause Nat can't get on her banking or anything. Will keep track of the speeds though. Thanks, Bernadette

Peter just did the speed test - download - 308 and upload 331 - very frustrating, Bernadette

Dear Bernadette,

Did CJ come out and look at your system? If he hasn't,. I would like to have him or someone else with real expertise take a look.

Bernadette,

I should be able to get up there this afternoon at some point to take
a look at your setup if this is convenient.

Alan

Incidentally the u/d speeds you posted are in line with what you
should expect.
