Decrease the distance between the clients and the router.

If we have do decrease the distance, Why on earth we
would need this wireless connection ????

Yes,

there seems to be an issue with the MN-700 and certain DSL providers. FTP
works fine but web pages download slowly and images frequently time out.

If possible, try setting up the MN-700 as access point until a solution is
provided.

lol - "until a solution is provided."

I haven't seen any firmware updates for MOST MS wireless products...
I run my MN_700 as an access point since it seems to have a zillion bugs
when used as a router.

I waited patiently for months for MS to solve this problem. I started to get
the feeling the MS party line in Canada was "It's Sympatico's fault" Well I
tried three different Wireless G routers Linksys, D-Link and the awesome
Speedstream 6300 combination unit Sympatico is supplying residential
clients..They all worked great and none exhibited any of the problems I saw
in the MN-700 which now resides in my junk box.

Too bad. It looked like a nice product on paper.

I had the same problem and MS says it is a feature so
hackers will not hack your system. I got that from phone
call to MS. They say is is a feature in NAT firewall. They
say there is nothing wrong so they will not fix a good
feature. I got a NETGEAR WRG 614 and it workes GREAT. With
MN700 I had 83 upload and 1145 download at best and with
NETGEAR it is 248 up and 1345 down. If you want to test go
to www.pcpitstop.com and run the tests. The site is run by
PC mag.
