earldunning Posted January 24, 2007 CID Share Posted January 24, 2007 This just started a few days ago. Since it started I shut everythign down and rebooted them all (which cures 90% of issues typically). But I had no luck. Here is what I am getting. As I said in the title, the hardwire is getting 1800 Kbps. I also noticed that in the download it stopped midway through for 3-4 seconds then kept going. This is typical what I am experiencing while gaming. Upload was only 143. I am running AOL (Mcafee) virus protection and firewall. I have been running them for 6+ months without this issue. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. :::..

earldunning Posted January 24, 2007 Author CID Share Posted January 24, 2007 As a followup. I just went over to a friends place who has the same provider. Using his dlink wireless router it came up 1392 KBps, (I use a linksys, newer model). So I guess its definitely the wireless router. Since I tired rebooting it, any other ideas?

dlewis23 Posted January 24, 2007 CID Share Posted January 24, 2007 have you tried any spyware/virus scannes? Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/17446-hardwire-1800-kbps-while-wirelss-only-160/#findComment-203179 Share on other sites More sharing options...
earldunning Posted January 25, 2007 Author CID Share Posted January 25, 2007 Actually I just ran that also and nothing. I dont think it can be a virus, I just proved it runs fine on my friends wireless network so it has to be the wireless router. I will try another reboot of the router itself.

BLUEDOG314 Posted January 25, 2007 CID Share Posted January 25, 2007 well if you isolated it to your router try playing with your router and adapter settings. switch to G mode only if you dont need B. maby at your house your too far from your router? i know with mine sometimes it says 54Mbs when im at like 20% signal strength.

earldunning Posted January 25, 2007 Author CID Share Posted January 25, 2007 It cant be my router location. Nothing has changed and this started happening a few days ago. I will take a look at the tweak.
