Any problems with Be tonight?

[DJMK4]

Timing out on some sites, tried a few trace routes to various places but getting random timeouts here and there seems to be around the 3rd hop. Wondering if anyone else getting problems?

Glad its not just me

Must be down to a routing issue then, DNS looks fine, lets hope they sort it soon!

This is my 3rd day on Be.

Connection has been excellent until now, I havnt even tweaked it yet, still using the standard bebox until my DG834GT turns up.

 

[DJMK4]

nothing to do with the connection or the router, its my area thats down

And you are where? How do you know this?

 

[DJMK4]

Sold my 834GT in favour of the BeBox

What?? You mad

Cant say that there is any problems with it but surely the netgear is going to be the better router?

 

[DJMK4]

lol, this reminds me of that south park episode where they lost the internet!

Was going to post a picture of the episode from google, but i couldnt load the webpage

There's also a pretty big thread in GD about this as well, so you guys aren't the only ones having problems.

Where??

 

[DJMK4]

OMGZ!!! T'INTERNETZ BACKZ!!!

It's a massive improvement if you're unlucky enough to have one of the dodgy Speedtouches (some are okay, some aren't).

I just purchased a brand new Sky Netgear DG834GT off auction site for £25, could have got it cheaper probably but couldnt be bothered waiting for one to come about.

Going to flash it when i recieve it.

 

[DJMK4]

Yeah, you can get it for about half that but it's not like it's a huge amount of cash really.

Good luck with the flashing (of the router)

Thanks Does anyone know if the UI will be the same a the standard netgear UI once flashed? Im guessing yes, just want confirmation.
