Comment 2 for bug 437953

Hi all,

Two weeks ago, I spoke to Belkin support, and today they send me an e-mail with a link to download a new firmware for the router.
This afternoon I've installed the new firmware and..., surprise, the ping answer was inmediatly!!!!, but the speed was the same 60Mb/s just 20inch from the router.

Now I'm about 10m from the router and the speed is reduced until 36Mb/s. It's possible to increase the connection speed?

jordi@jordi-ubuntu:~$ ping 192.168.2.1
