Slow D/Load Speed,Capped?
From Friday(4 days ago) i have started at certain parts(not always in the evening) of the day started to get very poor download speeds,upload is fine 500kpbs,yesterday Sunday it was most of the day and web pages would not load up.
I am connected through the main socket via wireless,i had a problem at the start with poor speed but from i went wireless my connection has been very good with NO disconnections at all.

Hi, can you confirm if your problem is wireless or hard wired, having trouble understanding the thread

Re: Slow D/Load Speed,Capped?
you do not look capped to me, your connection also looks like it has been up for over 200 hours,
wireless interference would be my guess to your problem
any new electrical items in the house ? these could be the problem
if not, you may want to change the channel in your router (you may have people in your area who are now wireless and could be clashing)Last edited by richone54; 07-04-08 at 07:13 PM. Reason: changed looked to look (the 4th word in)

Re: Slow D/Load Speed,Capped?
I had already rebooted the router several times but had only left it off for approx 5 mins,i was really pi**ed off to why my connection had suddenly got so poor,i turned the router off for well over a hour while making the tea etc,turned it back on and now getting 3156kbps,delighted again ....for now

Re: Slow D/Load Speed,Capped?
tbh honest you're better off junking wireless and go wired or use powerline adapters...
