kimbrellryan Posted September 22, 2010 CID Share Posted September 22, 2010 My connection speed is ridiculously slow and from what I've read, it could be my router. I use a Belkin router and a CLEAR Wimax modem. Here are my test results, can anyone help me?? :::..

CA3LE Posted September 22, 2010 CID Share Posted September 22, 2010 Try first connecting your modem straight to the computer without the router, once online re-test. Let's first establish if the router is definitely the problem... the best way to do that is to take it out of the equation. -D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CA3LE Posted September 22, 2010 CID Share Posted September 22, 2010 From what you've shown me so far... I doubt it's your router. Can you give our users some more detailed information about your system, (OS info, relevant hardware/software info... etc). Also, what city are you located in... and what is your speed supposed to be? While we're working this out, leave your router out of the equation still... makes it easier the more direct the connection is. But note that your network may not be as secure without the router in place. Also, if you have another computer to test on... give it a try, direct to the modem and post your speeds. We'll track it down -- need to work backwards and figure out what it isn't first. - CA3LE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
