I have an asus WL-500g Deluxe wireless router, which although recommended by a few
Hexus users is a pile of steaming cack.
I have 4 Mbps NTL which hits 3.7 Mbps down consistantly with factory defaults on the
Adslguide.org.uk speed test. But if I use the NAT setting 'virtual server' to open a port
for bit comet (what for isnt really important as the program isnt even running)
the connection drops to under 2 Mbps more like 1.6 Mbps.
This also happens if i do it using port trigger as well.
Is this normal? do most routers do this? anyone any ideas about why this happens.
I have tried the lastest firmwares and older ones but the same thing happens.
