I have O2 broadband and it's driving me nuts.

 

I'm outside the area to have the 20mb line, i'm running upto 8mb.

 

It keeps dropping all the time, but most randomly it keeps dropping the wireless which makes me think could it be a router issue.

 

I have many routers, mainly all Zyxel but O2 are reluctant to release any config for the Zyxel routers. They give you a teaser to get you going but so many setting i can't get the right combo to get it working.

 

Can't hack it no more.

 

I was 400mb through a 800mb update i've been waiting for most the afternoon and bang drop connection and have to start again. Not amused in the slightest.

Hi there, I experienced quite a few problems with my O2 broadband connection although this maybe unrelated. The problem I experienced was the internet connection constantly cutting off every few mins.

 

The solution I found was plugging the router into the main phone line rather than my secondary upstairs one! Hope it helps.

Have O2 for about two years, been my best provider so far. Think you have a flakey router mate. Get it swapped out.

I've got O2 BB and occasionaly have issues with the connection breaking down on long downloads... I've found using a download manager like:

helps out... when I spoke to O2 they said they'ed look into the problem for me and although I heard nothing back the situation seems to have improved.

 

thanks
