Hi Geekzone

This is my first post. I buy a new Vodafone HG659 from trade me. Try to connect at home my 100/20 UFB connection but no luck. I access to admin page and flush the spark firmware. I can connect now but can nt get the speed only 23/20. If any one has idea how this happend and hope some one has solution. Also I can not access my network hard drive. Thanks

Are you using wireless or wired?

2 of my mates on vodafone had exactly the same problem. 100/20 plan, would get the 20mbit up but only about 30mbit down.

Call Vodafone, they can fix it. (Although one of my fiends phoned them 5 times before they did fix it, but it did happen).

Ah true. Jumped the gun a bit then.

Can you flash it back to Huawei's factory firmware and start again perhaps? Id be interested to know as I have a spare one of these lying around and Might need to get it going for my sister next month.

I have one of these on Telecom firmware, and it does do 200/200, over WiFi. So it certainly is capable.

What ISP are you using and which firmware version?

do they use PPPoE? if so can you try a connection from the ONT into your computer?

so start a PPPoE connection on your computer and see if that can get the correct speed
