Hi all

I'm having problems with my 2820n in that during the course of the day the performance of the router slowly degrades. Right after a reboot, my speed jumps up to the point I'm getting around 16-18mb on speedtest.net which is great. However if I do the same test several hours later, I'm only getting around 3-4mb. Then if I then reboot the router again, it immediately jumps back up to the 16-18mb again (indicating it's not a time of day issue).

I have my router set to automatically reboot at 6am each day, which helps for morning browsing. But I'm now finding that by around 5 or 6pm in the evening the performance had degraded to an unacceptable level again. I really don't want to be rebooting my router twice a day.

Is this being experienced by anybody else with the same router? One thing of note, I've recently had my broadband upgraded from ADSL Max (up to 8mb) to ADSL2+ on BT'd 21CN (up to 24mb). I didn't have these issues before the upgrade.

p.s. I've already tried 3.3.5.1 firmware, but I find that even worse.

Thanks for reading.
