I registered for this site two months ago after signing up with Comcast and receiving a Technicolor TC8305 gateway for HSI and digital phone. After a few fits and starts the wired part worked fine, but Wifi was bog slow. About to post my first question when Wifi suddenly sprang to life after changing the channel from auto (channel 1 selected) to manual (I selected channel 6 as that seemed less common around me).
So I didn't post and was happy for two months. Yesterday the cable signal went wobbly (TV and HSI) for an hour or so and when the TV returned the Wifi was gone again. After resetting the gateway to factory settings, the wired speed is fine, the Wifi barely struggles, not so much with signal strength, but internet connection or maybe name resolution.
What should I look for on the gateway management page to help me diagnose this issue? It appears to me that actual gateway management is quite restricted by its software.
Thanks in advance.
