Re: wow more upgrades
When I was originally upgraded to 10 Meg, before the 20 Meg upgrade, I suddenly couldn't get a decent speed.

First thing I did was change the Ethernet cables but that didn't help, I had originally bought two RealTek 10/100 Ethernet cards and I still had one unused so I changed them over but still no improvement.

These cards would perform well on the local network but no change in the settings seemed to make much difference to the speed of the 10Meg Internet connection for some reason.

I decided to try a new card and as the RealTek Gbit cards didn't cost much more I bought one of those, immediately the Internet connection jumped to a solid 10Meg.
