Well my computer is very very slow and I run on a high speed cable connection. I connect through a wireless router to my other computer downstairs in my house which runs X10 faster. Any reason why this might be happening?
No, im talking about download speeds and upload speeds. My wireless goes like 20 KB and my comp downstairs goes 200 KB.
try vacuuming the insides... also, try moving the router closer to the adapter. also if all else fails you need a new XP install.
I suggest you defrag your computer deffinately. I also recomend resseting your router every 3 days or something. The backup in the router can cause a drop in your connection's bandwidth. Also, next time, if you could say my internet or computer is being slow. I can't tell if you want your computer faster or your internet faster. We also need to know your OS. Thanks.
that or try buying some more RAM, at Best buy, its only like 50 bucks for 100 more RAM, i bought 2 of 'em myself.
Did you forward any ports on the other computer, that's why it's downloading faster? This seems to be a p2p question. What software are you using to download?
If your getting slow speeds, it's the router Wireless always gives you slow speeds Most of the ppl I know who have routers, have VERY slow speeds
yep will be the wireless I would have had to get wireless but spent £20 on like 25m cable and I get DL speeds of around 200kb
