Initital Neuf experiences

Well, I am now totally switched to Neuf Telecom. I have been playing a bit with and seem to settle in now. Several observations.

Ping value is OK. At the moment it is 200 msec to a server in Paris. However in the evening it can drop to 500 msec.

Throughput (down) is about 80% better. However last night it dropped to only 200 kbps, it is 20% of my initial value. I hope that this will improve. I will do regular speed testing for a while.

The Neufbox is nice, I had no trouble setting it up. The WiFi signal seems les strong than my previous device. Have it now connected to the Wii and the PS3. So looks good.

I tries to connect my external harddisk to the box. Unfortunately it was not well recognised. I guess this due to the formatting I used (MacOSX extended). Guess I should revert to something else again. I have to experiment what is supported. My USB-ket worked OK. I was able to connect via FTP and WebDav.

I was not able to get my printer (HP DeskJet 5940) going. I found a PPD-file on the net, but it did work. The Neufbox did see the printer. I am at a loss here.

And finally the telephone worked as well through the Neufbox. I could call out and receive calls.
