Re: Power Levels= slow speeds

This I am getting the same problems, My 20 mb is really down and I know I have not been stm'd as my upload remains around 750 k. Did a speed test a few minutes ago and the upload almost over took the download speed.... Update us if you make any progress, as It would be nice to see whats causing these dyre symptons and how they can be resolved

Easy way to find out.
