Hi,

Here's what I suggest. Go over to the SkyUser forum:

http://www.skyuser.co.uk/forum/extracting-sky-router-passwords/59028-simple-tool-extracting-username-password-your-router.html

In that message you will find download links two two programs, choose the one you want to use, the explanations of the two are there. Download the pdf from that page too. Read the pdf, run the program.

The program will give you all the correct info from your existing Sky router, Username password, Option 60 field AND the correct MAC address to use.

Enter those details into the D7000 and fire it up.

See how you get on.

Sorry been a busy few days!

I've followed the guide and it produced a different password from the I was using. I put that password into the D7000 and it's helped a bit. Previously it was dropping about every 30 mins but now it seems to be 2-4 per day.

I got DSLstats up and working but is it just all the info from the stats section you need?

Here's a sample from the router log in case that helps,

There isn't really much info there apart from your down/up speeds along with SNR and line power. Best to get the stats from the telnet.

When i said £269.99 i meant for the D7800. I grabbed the D7000 for £139.99 so it was a big difference to match chipsets. :)

My wireless latency has always been very good with a HH4 and not that dissimilar from wired, give or take a ms or two. Just wondering whether i should plug my PS4 straight into the router now instead of a switch to keep the latency low.

It's 200m as the crow flies but checking google earth for the distance the line goes it's closer to 375m. Does seem like in the last few weeks the speed has gone up from 54-56 up to nearly 60mbps.

Hardwired to Switch or direct to router will not make much difference as long as the switch is working properly. If latency is that important forget wireless all together and stick to wired for everything. 400M should still yield 65+Mb.

It's a gigabit switch connected straight to the router. Need it to wire up all my devices under the TV. Just wondering about latency on the PS4.

Already having a good experience with the D7000, wireless is lightning fast. I was surprised how large the box is, it's massive! Speeds seem to be creeping up and latency is going down. Was around 30ms last night and now down to 22ms.

I feel like I'm only scraping the surface of what this can do.

Same as me, I have a few items around the TV, HiFi, BluRay Sky box. They are all into a five port Netgear switch in the TV cabinet ( hidden out of the way because of SWMBO ). I then have powerline ( Devolo 1200's ), one next to the D7000, one in my wife's study and one in my study with a 16 port switch there too. My DSL latency is about 5ms and the powerline adaptors add another 2ms. Wifi is only used for the mobile kit.

You'll maybe find that you have been put on interleaving or banded profiles due to an issue before and over the next few weeks the speeds will increase and latency will go down. My line is always improving still and has been running the best it has since going live a year ago.

When i first got the line in 2013 it was a solid 72mbps for a few months and then crept down to 54mbps. It's in the last few months it's crept back up to 60mbps.

My latency has never been as good as ADSL2 though and have always been 30ms on fibre compared to 16ms.

I've just managed to capture one of the drop outs while DSLstats was running, I can see a number of the graphs are showing spikes\drops but I'm not really sure what I'm looking at? :confused:

Navigate to the following folder.

Users/Yourname/AppData/Local/dslstats

In there you'll see a load of files, DSLStats stores lots of data.

Look for the 'Stats-2015***********.txt file, the latest one may do, the one that date matches your last re-sync would be better and post the data from that.

You could also set up a MyDSLWebstats.co.uk account which will post all of the data to the Website, this is really useful for realtime analysis of intermittent issues. You would need to keep the PC running DSLStats on though so it's constantly posting data.

Sorry - don't have a text file like that, the only txt I have is 'EventLog-2015-11-05-10.33.27' and then a load of png's and some ini and dat files...

I've checked to record everything on the configuration tab in the UI so unless there is something else I need to turn on?

Anyone experienced this issue:

Downloading a lot of large files and dslstats said no response from Netgear. I had to reboot the D7000 to get DSLstats working again.

No nothing like that at all. Only thing I get is DSLTstats hanging due to a divide by zero error or similar. I resolved it by deleting all of the files in data except the ini files. Usually does this about every three weeks.

Hopefully it is just a one off. Will try again tomorrow and see what happens.

Ok, I suspect the stats file is only saved once a day, so it needs to be running constantly.


Go into DSLStats itself, got to the telnet Data tab, do a select all, copy and paste that, can you also do it for the stats tab too.

Should look like this.
