Slow Internet Speeds
Greetings,
I am on a wired connection to my router. My NIC and my Router are both 1GB connections.
I just ran a speedtest from the Internet Tools and it showed I have 2.41 down and 4.72 up with a ping time of 37ms.
I pay for preferred internet, which has 25mbps download speeds. I'm currently at 1/10th of that.
That is unacceptable.

What kind of modem do you have? I would suggest connecting direct to it and try the speedtests again.
Also, what kind of router do you have?

Resetting my modem gave me some of my bandwidth back, but it's still only 50% of what it should be.

Ummmm..ok. I didn't ask to reset the modem, I asked if you tried connecting direct to it. Also what kind of modem and router do you have? If you can't answer that I just don't think think I will be able to help.

Don't get snotty with me. I did directly connect the computer to the modem, that didn't have any effect. In the process I reset the modem.

Snotty? How would I have known that? And you still haven't answered any of the other questions. This is a public forum and Im just trying to help, but I guess you just want to be cranky. Have fun with that.
