One in our main house with an Internet connection the other in a granny flat totally separate from the house. The mains power was on 3 separate circuits. The main house had a speed of 200Mbps and the granny flat 60-75 Mbps. So we have wired Internet for the first time in the granny flat and it's very stable - happy with the result.

]]> Comment on Modem issues with TPG. by Daniel http://www.ozcableguy.com/blog/?p=23&cpage=1#comment-3396 Daniel Wed, 11 Apr 2012 09:50:30 +0000 http://www.oztechnologies.com/ocg_new/blog/?p=23#comment-3396 Hi, I have had that happen when I was installing a new ADSL Modem/Router. It was a D-Link router and it needed a firmware upgrade in order to work properly with TPG. Having said that I used TPG myself in the past and found them to be not very reliable some of the time. I swapped over to another ISP. Hi,

Have a look at my "How to Extend Wireless Range" FAQ at http://www.ozcableguy.com/wireless.asp#1.4 towards the end where I talk about outdoor bridges and larger Multi-WAP Networks. There's a link there to EnGenius who can do a free online consultation for you or give them a call to have a chat about it first. Hi Anthony,

If the building wiring is split into different circuits or phases it is the active wire of each circuit that is connected to a seperate circuit breaker - the neutral wires are simply joined together at the fuse box. This should mean that all homeplugs should be able to communicate with each other - however the path between plugs on different circuits would be longer because it would be routed via the neutral common point at the fuse box and this may impact on maximum speed.

Is it possible to have more details of this setup please? I'll be sharing the ADSL connection. Regards, Anthony.
