Got a couple things straightened out with modem support at Time Warner Cable over the phone this morning and am getting the 10Mbit/1Mbit cable connection I'm paying for. Awesome. Now that the modem is rocking out, time to toss the patch cable and get my Linksys WRT54G back into the picture. Modem to router WAN uplink... XP Pro SP2 systems connect successfully through WEP... back to speedtest.com... and the brakes are thrown on at every pass I try to make! The tach was pegging 10Mbit before, now it won't hit 5Mbit or beyond- several attempts made with various N. America servers including the closest one to me.
Most of the WRT54G settings are at default with the exception of security, but I'm befuddled why the router would halve the bandwidth I know is reaching my new Motorola cable modem. Any thoughts?
