Siemens Gigaset S685IP/Troubleshooting

If you're accessing the web-interface of the S685IP base station and the page loads very slow, the images are boken, only half the page is displayed, or anything like that, you have to limit the amount of concurrent connections to a host in your browser.

The usually the agreed upon default for every browser is 2, but extension like FasterFox for Firefox allow you to change that limit.

Here's how to fix it in Firefox:

• enter about:config in the address bar
• search for network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server
• doubleclick on the line, and enter 2
• click on OK

Now you should be able to access the web-interface and load the whole page with all images.

This probably also applies to other models, like the S675IP or the C470IP.
