Tweaking Router?
I have a "Network Everywhere" router. It's made by linksys. I also have a wireless g router from linksys. On the wireless g router I was able to set the MTU's higher so my x-box wouldn't lag so much. I'm having difficulties finding the place to tweak my new router. I've already tried the same thing I did with the last one. Need help please!

You may be in the process of breaking your network all together. Ethernet typically can't handle an MTU any higher than 1500 (layer 2 trunks are an exception, as they add additional header info). And this really does not have much to do with network performance but how the frames are put onto the network.
Read about "Path MTU" and it will become very clear that what you are doing will not help your performance.

Setting your MTU any higher than 1500 won't improve your network performance. Sorry

enable qos (high quality of service) despite if it quite is accessible. that's going to prioritize site visitors that's time comfortable like skype calls and video games. different than that there is not any longer a lot else.

on a computer that's connected to the router do this
run cmd or command (depends on what kind of windows u use). type in this
ipconfig/all
it will give u the ip address of ur computer and ur "gateway"
it will sumtin like this
default gateway ......................:192.168...
u need those numbers (they more than likely be different than mine).
now start in internet explorer and type in those numbers excatly as they appear (with dots and everything) that u got from ur computer
now u have the web page to setup the router
