I have no router at all.
Juat 1 PC connected to my modem. Cable from the wall to the modem and then USB to my pc via USB2.

It seems that my download is not the problem, if i manage to get to a site i can download at 180+KB/s.

IF for example I use a torrent site i will download at max speed but up nothing.....Then all of a sudden for no reason I will go to 32KB/s for a few hours and I can surf the web with ease. This tends to happen late at night. After 12AM. During the day and the evening I get nothing again?

As I speak now...I have a torrent running and azureus is showing 29KB/s up and 175KB/s down. So it seems it has come back on again. But by tomorrow I bet it has gone off again. It has been doing this for 5 weeks now......:o

Going to try the signal strength tests now, but while it is working I am sure it will be fine. Since my last post I have been unable to access the web atall so was unable to try the tests sooner.......
