Re: does a router effect downloading speed?
I thought my Router/Firewall may be causing some of the problem, but i got the same results when i connected direct to the modem.
Pc is connected to the router by eternet cable.
Recently upgraded to 2 mb, all speed tests are still showing 1 mb

Was on phone for 40 minutes today to technical team to try and sort out. They said that it should work and i should leave for about 5 hours. Did this, still the same as you can see from above.
I have another thread on the site stating just to keep pestering but it is not getting me anywhere. Apart from a large phone bill from ringing the 0871 number
