FIOS troubling

[gigahertz205]

My internet is starting to slow down on me. Im paying for 15mps/2mps. I used to get around 13mps down and 1.5 up but today Im only getting 1.5 mps down. this is really bugging me because its takes lots of time to load websites and i have to wait couple of second to even open google. today was the first time i realized a significant differnce in speed but it lagged here and there for couple of days. I am virus free and spyware free and all the other stuff. Ran hijack this with analyzer and none there.

welcome gigahertz205

make sure you have no spyware/adaware on your computer. and have you recently tried to tweak your internet? also do you have any software firewalls running.

copy and paste a traceroute(ping)http://www.testmy.net/tools/toolbox.php

Do you run any bittorrent software and if so, did you stop it before testing.  If you find that stopping the BT fixes it, the I suspect you haven't patched your tcp/ip sys file.  OR you did patch and a recent update unpatched it for you.  I had that happen and had to repatch it the other day.  Very annoying.

I don't see anything wrong with those results, unless the ***'s at the end are indicating You didn't get all the way to the FIOS servers.  Looks like it may have stalled on the FIOS side of things.  You guys agree?

[jditto]

Nevermind, I ran the site test myself and got the same results.  I've never done a test from the site, just from my side.  Those results look perfect on the network side then, so the issues would seem to be on the computer side.  I'd look for spyware and viruses.  If you are infected, the scanners you have installed already may no longer find anything as a good virus would hide from it.  Also look into the tcpip sys patch I mentioned above.  You may just be overusing the connections.  Could be as simple as tweaking the connection settings on the computer with all the tools on the site here.  It would seem it's in your hands at this point.

Hey, one other thing I just thought of.  Wireless router?  Make sure it's KEY is set or you disable it all together if you're not using it.  You problem may be people around you using up your bandwidth through that.

[tommie gorman]

I can't read those damned things, but his speeds have definately increased considerably.

Might check with Blunted as he is pretty good at the FIOS part.
