Wireless Internet Connection Suddenly slow
(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)
Posted by: Dark-
My problem is that my wireless connection is disgustingly slow.
It averages at about this.. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v...a-Kun/speed.png
It’s a linksys router
I have an acer 2.4 ghz processor and 512 MB of ram.
I’m 90% sure I have no spyware/viruses
(I ran Spydoctor, Spybot, Ad-Aware, Edwido and AVG)
This is fine, the connection looks good..
But when I use Firefox or Warcraft III it barely goes anywhere.
I mean, I can’t even play WC3, and firefox has trouble loading pages.
(I’m sure everything else is slow, but I haven’t checked)
In the start, it just seemed really jerky.
By this, I mean.. I’d click a link, and it would start going, then stop dead.
I’d press refresh and it would load instantly.
(This still occurs, but it still has slow moments)
Then, I had my comp freeze/a serious system error occurred..
And when I restarted, my sound drivers were screwed.
I looked around for the drivers I needed, found them, but then had download difficulties and decided to restart.. Which, annoyingly, fixed THIS problem.
Unluckily, it also made my internet crap.
Oh, by the way, the wireless connection is shared with a computer near me, and the base station is far away.. And I have 2.4 ghz wireless phones which mess up my net (But were unplugged while I test speed)
But its always been fast in the past even with that.
Oh, by the way
Cnet.com speedtest gave me 174.4 Kbps..
This is horrible, considering I made 500-1500 before
Any help?!
