    Load balancing

    Vans have trackers on, can’t use them in personal time, also at the moment I’m in long term hoist (cherry picker) cover so I have no guards ect.

    Load balancing

    Number of reasons that I won’t work on my own line..... 1) broadband isn’t a easy task, also jobs are sometimes looked at task times. I never want to be put in the position of why did you work on your own line for 5 hours remaking joints ect, was I working, was I at home with my feet up?!?! I...

    Load balancing

    Im actually an openreach engineer however I refuse to work on my own line as it’s not worth the “why did it take so long to fix”. It’s not an easy job in all honesty. You get a a line to pass and essentially there is no fault on the line. It just annoys me so much that I get 130meg plus on my...

    Load balancing

    Thanks for such a early reply, that had been my thought for today, why would you stick to the slower wired? I’ve been having line issues but when they come to check we can’t find anything. I’m having multiple dropouts a day. This is one reason for change over.

    Load balancing

    Before even getting to openVPN side of things, having load balancing enabled I’m getting lots of issues, trying to open YouTube on my phone and kids iPad it doesn’t load. I was watching Disney plus and that also stopped loading. Would we say this is CGNAT limiting what I can get too or is this a...

    Load balancing

    I tried calling the provider and got the reply of “what is CGNAT?!” wish I could get FTTP, when I have been trying to tunnel in I’m struggling a little bit, I normally use a ddns service, when using an app like Sab or RealVNC I normally type in my ddns:port and have port open on my ASUs. What...

    Load balancing

    Fantastic reply thanks. Guess there is no way cheap/easy/ good way to actually bond the 2? Obviously I want the speed from the 4G but it’s CGNAT so that means I can’t log into my PC. I have been looking at tunnelling in but have had little to no joy.

    Load balancing

    I have 2 connections that I’m playing with. VDSL at about 55meg 4G at about 130/160 meg. I was hoping load balancing and putting my ratio 1:5 might improve my speed, it did lift it to about 70meg while downloading however my ip isn’t consistent and it’s trying to send my ip to the 4G all the...

    VDSL modem.

    I have the Huawei 288 /384HD FTTC cabinet so would the 1312 or 3625 be best? I assume both can Goni to modem only/ bridge mode? Thanks.

    Getting faster internet...... any ideas.

    So if I was to download a NZB file for instance would that then give me 50+50 (approx) to make 100 or would it literally just max one connection and leave the other free.

    Getting faster internet...... any ideas.

    so with load balancing, would that mean if I set a download off it would still only max one connection out, however would leave the second connection free for streaming on the shield and the kids iPads?

    Getting faster internet...... any ideas.

    My 6400 is actually setup connected to the 5300 as fall over at the moment but as I say not a great speed. I could maybe test and play about with that though.

    Getting faster internet...... any ideas.

    I’ll be honest I’m sending the 5G CPE back as it didn’t have bridge mode so sorta not what I’m looking for. I do have a TPLink 6400 I think it is but I get poor speeds with that, 30/40 meg. with the 5G CPE I was getting between 130/160meg. I think the difference is the size and probably a...

    VDSL modem.

    How can I find that out? I know it’s a vectored cab and takes an age to reconnect. I Think it’s a Huawei.

    Getting faster internet...... any ideas.

    I currently have an asus 5300, I got a Huawei 5G CPE Pro on a contract to test it. It doesn’t offer a bridge mode and if fairly basic. If I wasn’t going to loose speed and it’s something that is doable, I could look into the Asus 4g-ac68u and keep the ASUS 5300 and turn it into a ASUS mesh system.

    VDSL modem.

    Sorry for 3 different posts but i believe they should be in separate categories, and sorry if they are in the incorect section just dont see one about modems. If you have read any of my other posts you may see that i'm in a conundrum on how to push forward. Currently i have a openreach modem...
