hupp3l... OK... Here is my suggestion... you might not want to do it because it is a pain... but it will narrow it down. Set everything back to default... all your settings, etc. (Make sure your routers are set to factory default) Check the settings on your NIC card... if you haven't already... it should be set to auto / full-duplex Put you Verizon supplied router in-line and test with it... you should be getting your advertised speeds here!! If not, then you need to get Verizon involved. Remove the DLink and put your Linksys in-line and test with it... If the Linksys tests the same as the DLink... then start adding from there... I had to do the same thing on the wireless side of my DLink DI-624 this past week. I tried everything and someone suggested I go back to square one... didn't want to... but I did and everything is back rock solid. Please let us know what you find out. Cheers, Ronnie

Real ages huh?? OK... 49. Will turn 50 this year... Been married for 24 years... have two daughters and a grand-daughter. And loving life. Still listen to old rock... and even some of the new stuff...

Hey hupp3l... When you do the download test on this site... do you do it with or without the progress bar??? I don't know why... but when I do mine with the progress bar the speed test is very skewed... when I do it without the progress bar mine reads normal. Just a thought... Good luck, Ronnie

Thanks Guys... I appreciate the kind words. I have used this site for my speed test for a while... didn't even realize until one of my buds over at broadbandreports.com told us you had a FIOS section... so, I am glad to be here.

DSLReports is a great site... did not deserve getting attached. Actually, I was wondering what happen yesterday... I frequent that site several times a day.
