Are you shore that you have been upgraded to 10 Gb ? If Yes try reboot your modem then reboot your router and you may need to reboot your computer as well.

[Edit]

I see that you have been upgraded by looking at post #377 as I sed try reboot your modem then reboot your router and you may need to reboot your computer as well.

I have tried this by going to the modem setup and resetting, which I believe is the same as turning the modem off, right?

You are a star, I downloaded and ran the TCPOptimizer, and as I have Windows 98, it performed with no problems, and I now get speed results that relate to my current 10 meg speed.

What I have noticed however is I use Firefox right, so if I have the option selected for Direct connection to the internet then I get these good results, but as I use Avast it needs to have a local host for a proxy, this is so it can capture any malware etc when browsing web pages.

But if I add the local host then the browsing and download speed checks start to show around 4 to 5 meg.

So I kind of thought that it would not be wise to have a direct connection purely for the fact that my anti virus Avast would be kind of disabled as far as web shield is concerned.

Thoughts folks?
