i have a cat6 cable going to the ethernet cord to my mobo...and this is my internet:
which is a little over what i ordered, but speed is not my problem, ping is.

In that case see if you can get your hands on a wired router go fully wired. if you can one from egg \ wal mart so you have the option of returning it.


As for speedtest forget that load of crap... Like saying i only get 500KB when if i goto steam or UBI for example i get 2.2MBs downloads.

DDWRT works with the linksys WRT300N. There is no reason to downgrade to a WRT54G. I use DDWRT with my WRT150N and the WRT300N is, if anything, better supported.

Thanks, I didn't know DDWRT works with the WRT300N.

Sveasoft also supports the WRT300N appearently.

waste of money dont bother, get faster internet service!! thats the only sure banker here.

Faster internet service is rarely the solution. You can game on surprising slow connections as long as you have a decent ping. 786k/128K is fast enough for mild online gaming if you have a good ping. His ping is most likely low due to other users on his network, which is why he needs a QoS solution to give him priority over the other users, which will reduce ping.

if you have a good WRT54G or WRT54GS or etc then you can install that, but if you have a WRT300N you have to install openWRT then install X-WRT as a package [there are instructions for that all over the internet, its really not hard cuz of ipkg yay]

a few things to keep in mind, befor you do anything grab a working image of a firmware you know how to use well, and get the linksys tftp client that way if anything goes wrong you can flash it during boot

i dont know how to use any firmware...


ok, so what is the best firmware in order to get better ping? also, can the 3rd party firmware be on any PC? or does it have to be the one connected to the modem? or anything like that?
