netmasta thanks for welcoming me to the community I will give broadband optimizer a try this weekend hopefully that will help! I have not installed any new software or hardware this month so that is not the issue. dlewis23 no spyware or virus issues as well because when I take laptop to a cafe or over to a friend's house the speed are normal. All in all I think the issue lies with Comcast for I have this issue whether or not my connection runs through the router or from the modem directly into the computer and if there was any connection issue from the modem or router it seems that my whole system will be affected and not just the download speed. :::.. Download Stats ..::: Download Connection is:: 1075 Kbps about 1.08 Mbps (tested with 2992 kB) Download Speed is:: 131 kB/s Test Time:: 2006/08/24 - 10:26am Bottom Line:: 19X faster than 56K 1MB Download in 7.82 sec Tested from a 2992 kB file and took 22.802 seconds to complete Download Diagnosis:: May need help : running at only 19.66 % of your hosts average (comcast.net) User Agent:: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en) AppleWebKit/418.8 (KHTML, like Gecko) Safari/419.3 [!] :::..

Greetings everyone, Hopefully someone in this community will be able to help me out with this current issue that I am having with my Comcast cable. Currently I have the 8MPS/768 kbps plan with Comcast and up until August 6th everything was fine prior to that date my download speed average from 5.5Mbps to 7Mbps and my upload speed was always over 7kbps. Since August 6th, my download speed has barely made it to 2.5Mbps while my upload speed has stayed the same. Last week Comcast sent two different techs to my apartment and one line tech to check everything outside as well and I am still having this issue. How could my download speed be so severely affected while my upload speed has stayed the same? By the way this problems occurs whether my connection is through my router or through the modem directly into the computer. If you anyone needs for me to run a speed test and post the results I will do that as well. Al assistance is greatly appreciated.
