Latest Gateway Firmware Discussion

My gateway was upgraded (without any notification, mind you) to 1.2103.00.0338 a few weeks ago. No major issues with the internet service per se, but now the Home Internet app fails to show the list of devices attached to the network. I know my way around computers and can find workarounds, but this can be a big annoyance for most average users.

I am also on 0338 and using android phone, I am seeing my devices, it’s showing the connection better, but I still can’t edit them. 

just noticed my trashcan, which had been running 1609 for months, very happily, is now running 1.2103.00.0338.  I'm currently experiencing what looks like throttling of download speeds at 1 MByte/s.  

Edit 2:. My bad!  Noticed somehow my Ethernet connection between trashcan and desktop was running 10Mb/s.  Power cycled desktop and 30second deep factory reset trashcan, got 1000Mb/s link back, Internet performance back up to acceptable speeds.  The throttling was gone. 

Edit:. Misspoke.  Previous version was 1609, throttling is 1MB, not 1Mb.

Am I reading this right, You are getting 1000mbps or are you getting 100mbps

bock57,

Sorry, I'm being confusing!  The 1000mbps refers to the hardware link speed (that is, 1 gig-Ethernet).  Earlier, I'd seen the link speed drop down to the 1980's level: 10mbps (10baseT)  So that explains why I thought I was seeing throttling, but the throttling was in the connection from my PC to the trashcan.  Deep-reset and reboot of the PC brought the link speed back up to gig-E, and I've been seeing roughly the same speeds I saw prior to getting the .0338 firmware.

I’m getting 120Mbit/sec down and 40Mbit/sec up at the best (3am-ish), and 60/20 at worst during mid-day.

So, .0338 is working OK for me

Thx
