Hi all,
Can anyone help me please!!!!!!!! This one has me beat.
Just had 50mb installed on Monday and I downloaded allot of stuff Monday as a test and it flew in at 50mb
but now 2 days later I only get 16-20mb
. Unless I connect the modem directly to the computer and then it's back to 50mb.
Nothing as changed since Monday my setup as always stayed the same: Modem to Belkin N+ router wired to my computer, I've checked with the laptop over wireless and this also gives me around 16-20mb.
I have checked the speeds at
http://www.speedtest.net/ and when downloading through newsbin and they both give me today 16mb ish and on Monday when installed 50mb ish. Just checked and got 15.11mb download and 4.72mb upload by running the above test.
I have swapped the router for an old one and I have also tried the new free one virgin sent me with the same results on all 3. I have even tried putting a 5 point gigabit switch in instead of the router with the same results.
I haven't a clue why I get this speed difference when connecting anything other than straight to the computer from the modem, I understand there can be speed differences when connecting wireless but not wired like me
I rang virgin and they see nothing wrong but something very strange is happening please help!!!!!!!!
One thing I can remember and not got a clue if this is anything but the engineer did tell is office I only use my broadband for gaming ?
Thanx
