Skybox f3 and Internet, glitch/freeze

[jconnolly]

Hello all,

Right basically everything is running perfect with my new skybox f3/m3. Server works perfect with $ channels, plugged through Ethernet direct into router. About 11mbs speed.
But when I'm using my computer and on the Internet my box becomes glitchy and freezes every 30 seconds or so.

Any tips, anybody else experience the same problem.

Is there a way to allocate a certain percent of internet to my box?

Thanks
J

Do you know if any router would work with any service provider? Or only router they supply?
Thanks

This way works?..

You can have 100meg from your provider it will still be freezing when more then few people in the house using laptop and pc.

A standard router is about 54mb you need to buy 300mb router in order to balance the incoming power.
