    Can't load web pages while downloading via http - still plenty of bandwidth !

    UPDATE: 1. We removed the hub from the network and swapped out the router with a different model this morning and the problem persisted. 2. We also took the router out of the path and connected just the hub to the modem (the modem can issue IP addresses without a router) and again the...

    Can't load web pages while downloading via http - still plenty of bandwidth !

    Yes, it's a third party firmware quite popular with the WRT54G crowd with a great feature set. I tried adjusting the BTU setting (1400, 1500 and auto) with no success and enabling/disabling Qos didn't help either. I'm sure the problem is in the router somewhere, I'll have my first chance to...

    No http after a few mins

    Connectivity is good, the router itself is still functioning and many types of activity can still be performed such as nntp, smtp, pop3, etc. My problem is that as soon as an http download is started by anyone on teh network, it kills port 80 for everyone else. I have seen a few instances...

    Can't load web pages while downloading via http - still plenty of bandwidth !

    I'm having a problem where the ability to surf the web is killed whenever a small http download is in progress. As an example, if someone goes to a webpage and sees an image they like, they could right click and save it to their computer and while it's being downloaded the other users on the...

    Staples Flyer from May 16 - May 22

    I picked up 2 packs of the TEON DVD-R's and they were both CMC as well, which is great... I've gone through two 50-packs of Memorex DVD-R's that were CMC's and have had no problems playing them in my laptop, stand alone, PS2, and my mom's cheese-o-tron stand alone which is very picky as to what...

    Hitachi 180 GB HD at Frys for 69.99 AR

    Please see my posts on the REBATE TRACKING THREAD. Looks like lots of people are having this problem. I just spoke to the Rebate center this afternoon after getting a post card today saying my $90 rebate was declined. They agreed over the phone to honor my rebate (said it would still take 4-6...

    Sorry, forgot to quote the original post in my response earlier. If this is the $90 rebate for a 200Gbyte Hitachi hard drive (mine was purchased from Fry's in San Diego), then yup, I just got my "Screw You" post card in the mail as well. Reason stated on the post card for dissaproval was: 1...

    Anybody have any suggestions on how I can persuade the Staples in my area (San Diego) to honor the $59 price? They have one available but it rings up at $99.

    **HOT** Belkin 4-port cable/DSL gateway router "FREE" after rebate & coupon at Staples

    If the item shows out of stock with a one day delivery date, is there any way to still get it in my shopping cart so that it is basically back-ordered?

    Memorex DVD+R/RW Drive for $59 at Office Depot YMMV

    I just went back to officedepot.com and after clearing my cookies, realized that I am prompted for my Zip code before it tells me the item is unavailable. I thought at first that it was not available at all for purchase online, but see now that they are checking my region for stock avalability...

    Memorex DVD+R/RW Drive for $59 at Office Depot YMMV

    I found the coupon code (and read the rules), so sorry for the last post. I do have another dumb question however. If an item is not available online, will the retail store honor the coupon codes? I would like to get the $20 off $100 deal, but I went online and entered both Sku 34707703251...
