Wap wn802tv2 speed problems
Hi guys,
i'll explain the setup i have going on at the moment..
phoneline - wireless modem - powerline - powerline - wireless access point..
I had to pay £25.00 for telephone support to get it connected to the internet, everything was ok for about an hour or so and then it went dead slow, about 5mins approx to load a webpage through the connection to the wireless access point.. i think the problem is within the WAP because i am currently connected to the bt homehub (wireless modem) directly and i have speeds of around 4mb (slow to some but fine for me) and i am about 60m away from the homehub.. i bought the access point to connect my ipad, apple tv, iphone etc. to because they dont have as good wifi range as my laptop. I have also tried plugging the powerline directly into the computer and that is even faster than connecting wirelessly to the modem at a far distance.. Not sure how to go about this, can anybody help me out?:confused::confused::confused:

- i am using 64bit wep encryption and i have the password wrote down and i have tried in uppercase and lower case however i cannot connect my iphone ipad etc. to the WAP
- WEP are 100% hackable. use WPA2 encryption.
There is someone recently post some issues with this model but they could not connect so seems it is not same issues so try different encryption
