Downloads stop
Hello, I have an issue where my downloads stop. I cant seem to download a file. Streaming TV stops, yet speedtest.net show 117 Down & 11 Up.
I have upgraded my modem to a Surfboard ,SB6183, my router to a Linksys WRT1900AC, increased my cox account for faster bandwidth, and even replaced a couple of 5-port Gigabyte switches, yet I am still in network heck.
With all this, I should be screaming. Yet wired or wireless, a 500 Meg file is beyond my reach.
I am open to ideas,
Thanks for the suggestions

Its interesting that you say you have several switches. How are they connected to your network? What kind of switches are they?

I have three Linksys Gigabyte switches feeding different areas of the house. Prior to WiFi, I ran CAT5 throughout the house.
I disconnected all of the CAT5 cables from my router and was able to download without issue. I then plugged in each segment one at a time, downloading between each segment.
The issue turned out to be an AdTrap (http://www.getadtrap.com/) device I added to the network sometime ago. It must of flaked out because as soon as I introduce it to the network, download fails, remove it and all is well.
Network is happy once again.
