Whether you like it or not, at some stage everyone who has their own internet connection has to configure their router. If you use several different routers in different locations, you’ll also know that no two routers have the same admin system and it can sometimes be a pain trying to work out how they work. A handy solution I’ve used is Alejandria Open&Play that manages to provide a one-admin-tool-fits-all solution to router admin.
It’s designed and updated regularly to work with hundreds of different routers and so chances are that yours is compatible. The main beauty of this program is that it can help you manage your all important ports to obtain maximum upload and download speeds. If your ports are not opened or configured correctly, you may be losing valuable bandwidth especially on P2P apps e.g. the common “low ID” problem with eMule. So if you simply having problems setting up a router or want to optimise it without worrying about the technicalities, Alejandria Plug&Play is definitely worth a try.
