    internet connection

    anyone else stupid enough to get talk talk and are having problems with connections dropping out and really slow download speeds.

    im talking 10kbps on a 7mb line:confused:

    probably just my router, i was also daft enough to think linksys would do the job.

    im running a scan to make sure ive not got computer aids but i think its just down to a combination of shit router/modem and talk talk

    which linksys? They make some good kit. It would take a REALLY shite router to cause that sort of trouble - i'd think it would be safe to rule out the router.

    You could try port forwarding mind.

    Talk talk are canny gash, that's probably where your problem is. They may throttle certain downloads, I don't know mind.
