Next, to eliminate any problems with the wireless link, run the test again with your PC directly wired into your modem/router, and the router's wireless capability disabled. A possible problem might be with a neighbour's wireless network on the same channel, or maybe another neighbour is leeching off your wireless and your DSL connection.

He can't. It's a combined DSL modem/router, not cable.
Hi thanks for the reply....

Have disabled the wireless and still get similar results.

Have no spyware installed at all, got a clean system, I use Pest Patrol to check that. Only thing that runs in the background is McFee internet security suite 6. 2005. Don't use any pere to peer. This has only been happenning the last 3 days.
