Problems with new adsl
Problems with new adsl
Hey guys
Just got adsl hooked up, but im having problems. I keep getting 'Overrun errors'. I'm running about a 16 metre network cable to the router but its only new and shouldn't be stuffed already. In fact its the shortest possible cable for our place. Any ideas? Its driving me nuts!

Hmm...
Try changing your network cards speed setting from auto detect to 10Mbit/Half...
Let us know.

Yup...
...make sure that your DLS line was "conditioned" before the established service. If they didn't, make them do it.
Also, make sure there's a filter on EVERY jack in the house (unless there's one at your outside box) and then make sure that the phone jacks are all wired the right way.

[Wall]-[Telephone line] - [DSL modem] :should be shorter. (recommended under 1M)
[DSL modem] - [NIC] : dont mind. but straight cable, not cross cable.
As for DSL modem with router function,
are there any optional parameter "line mode"(Q uad/G.dmt/G.lite)? If there were, try G.lite 1st.
Also, do not place TV etc near DSL modem.

Okie dokie! Added line filter to Foxtel line, reset router to factory and running so far for 14hrs straight. 14 overruns and 2 RX errors only due to me using BitTorrent for 5 minutes which is another problem. Why make another thread I suppose.
Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing some errors when using BitTorrent? If I leave it long enough it will actually crash the router by overloading it with error after error. At one point I had 54,169 RX errors and 124, 832 overrun errors, which I got to see 10 seconds before the router went south. No one else seems to have these troubles and if they are, I cant find them, so what could be the cause of it? Its no biggie, just wondering.
BTW - Thanks a heap for the help guys! I wub j00 all.![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

Well...
...first, your machine needs to be set up to serve FTP that being, some flavor of IIS or Apache...
Assuming you've done that and you've put the PC's IP address into the routing table and forwarded port 21 to it all you should have to do is make sure the firewall on the PC is allowing port 21 traffic.
Easy as cake...![Shocked :shock:](./images/smilies/icon_eek.gif)

I feel like a complete bell-end but...
Its on a four port router, 3 ports used. D-Link DSL 504-T. Never had dsl or a router before so this is a learning process. I tried port forwarding, then choosing my own static IP in the connection settings and forwarding. Nothing seems to work. Unfort. I have a dynamic IP due to my ISP's plan, otherwise I wouldn't have this trouble. Also I just use Serv-U as it works a lot easier and faster. It does all I need for now. Its just it only sees the router IP, 10.1.1.1 and thats it.
Would it be safe to use DMZ for my own machine instead? And if so, would it solve the problem? Thanks heaps for the help Light, you know I appreciate it.

Uh...
...it sounds like a configuration error, not an architectural limitation.
Try pushing the PC into the DMZ and remember to try and FTP to the DHCP address provided by your ISP.
If your ISP give you an address starting with 10, 169, 172 or 192 give up now.
