Mio TV sucking up bandwidth

[justpk]

I am using the 2wire 2701HG which is the mio box, whenever the mio tv box is on, my web pages cannot load at all, bt IM and downloads not affected by alot. My home network has 2 coms on ethernet and 1 com on wireless usually. Is it like normal for mio tv to suck ur bandwidth, because i have read some rants by some other users on other singapore forums about this.

[chunxi]

miotv does not use your bandwidth at all
unless your singnet plan is 25mbps
actually after i sub miotv, i feel my original bandwidth get higher abit.

same here.. seem to have slightly more downstream bandwidth

[tushar310]

i noticed my internet surfing became slower when Mio TV is on.

glad i found such a thread.


i think it takes up LAN bandwidth ..because it works via ethernet cable.

what do u think?

[chunxi]

singnet configure port4 for miotv, which is separate from your singnet sub
2 weeks ago when singnet kanna outage (2wire modem show red for internet), miotv is still working.
so i think they are separated.

Is port 4 is the one next to the usb port?

[justpk]

Hmm..so care to explain the obvious slowdown i face?

[hwsinn]

in TS situation i suspect is the BT that is sucking up the bandwidth...check ur BT open ports settings and upload speed....
mioTV bandwisth is allocated on top of ur subscribed speed

My mio TV sucking up bandwidth too

mmm... your ping a bit rather high... could also mean your line not that good and cannot get the full speed for your MioTV bandwidth.. hence eat up a bit of your internet speed?

here is mine

Just as the above guy's case, u can see my download speed slowing down like 3mbps...btw when experiencing slowdowns, i have NO active torrents. But, still i have problems surfing the net.

[justpk]

anyone has an explanation?

[twist_shout]

yes..Mine too.

Without Mio TV 10++ Mbps

With Mio TV and HD channel 7+ - 8 Mbps


the technician also told me Mio Tv does takes up some bandwidth too..

[aaur4man]

post ur sync profile and line quality.

I now it affects somehow and a regular user is restricted to 2wire modem , so I went for 15mbps + 2nd line for Mio TV to save trouble.

However, MioTV sync profile is 17mbps. Theoretically u shd be synced at 25mbps for a smooth experience.

[seeyourhead_jiejie_v3]

yes i also having the same problem 1yr+ back. it does affect some of the bandwidth + miotv work better in interleaved line mode. during fast mode, some screen will be distorted.
i perfer my internet line to be on fast mode.

so now i upgrade to 15mbps to make use of a 2nd line juz for miotv..

[aaur4man]

syh can post ur line quality for 15mbps?

[seeyourhead_jiejie_v3]

i still on 10mbps now next week den will install 15mbps

this is my current 10mbps 1

now on 15mbps only get abt 7mbps..
and line mode got changed to interleaved.. :mad:

[wiwi86]

to my knowledge..mio tv uses different frequency as ur internet and ur mio voice if u hav..on top of tat, they hav their own different bandwidth for data transmission if i rmb correctly

and also can you advise how to come to this page?

fast mode have lesser ping
interleaved mode have more error checking.

i perfered lower ping for my usage.
fast mode is around 10ms or less..
interleaved move is around 50ms

for my case

go to ur 2wire router page, then under broadband, details

so this is the result u get after change to fast mode?
this is after i told them i getting lower speed then what i getting on 10mbps

haven change to fast mode yet.. tink their end cock up..
tell me changed liao but haven change..

[seeyourhead_jiejie_v3]

Look at max rate :s22::s22::s22:
ya lor nothing wrong wioth the max rate ma..
with miotv, of cos they need to allocate higher bandwidth for ur miotv..

[kediraksith]

if im not mistaken, BTing with mio modem sux big time, i strongly believed the reason is that the mio modem have limited concurrent connections.... coz when i used a normal ADSL modem everything is fine :D

I wanted to change but was strongly backfired by my parents coz they want to use the VoIP free calls.... zzz

[aaur4man]

QoS

voip can configure for 3rd party modem

Well, its more of your bt config instead. Utilizing low connection does not mean your cant max out the P2P rates.

And then? Make no diff in the first place.

without miotv

TYhe resultis pretty negligible for me I think.

You have any pointers?? I believe i aint doing anything wrong coz I did the same thing to my starhub last time... well yea different ISP different settings.. But doing 1 BT at 40 concurrent connections shouldnt jam my net surfing right?

Funny thing is, when i first got my mio things wasnt so bad, I can do lots of BT without really hurting my net surfing... now it has gone down the drain. When i say modem its because when i tried to access the 2wire config page at 192.168.1.254 it simply says "waiting" for like 1 or 2 mins before it loads. When not doing BT naturally it loads almost instantly...

So back to my recent issue, doing 1 BT at 40 concurrent connections... jams my whole family net surfing... all of us gets the page couldnt be loaded error... 2wire Config page takes 1 or 2 mins to load...


Anyone experience same thing?

shouldnt jam at 40 connection..
my 2wire 2700 will only jam at around 300+ connections...
below tat everything is smooth

[kediraksith]

thats why, smthing is wrong... somewhere...... i also noticed that... once my downloading Bandwidth, be it BT or regular download, it will also starts to jam....... really kinda WTF coz when i used TCP-Z, my concurrent connections is only like 5.... regular download this afternoon...

Im on 10mbps line... and downloading at 910kb/s.... liddat by right wun jam right?..zzz


Yea and last time i also can get 300+ concurrent connections before jamming...

[wiwi86]

okok i will go for miohome right after my internet left 3 mths . i was wondering shld i pay the $3 dollar anot , whether worth it ma

tat'll depends on ur local call rates..for me..w/o including $25 subscription fees for normal analogue line, my local calls r $17+ every mth...$3 for mth is a full win situation for me...

[wiwi86]

it still does affect a bit. as many have confirmed.

but i cant reli feel e effect...mayb it's too small to b noticed by me ba :s13::s13:

[seeyourhead_jiejie_v3]

so this is the result u get after change to fast mode?
this is fast mode. if u still intrested.
