Help with speeds please!


Recommended Posts

Hey, I'm pretty new to increasing my speeds. However I have read the guides, followed them, ran cablenut and used the calculator to enter my preferences, however after all of that... my speeds are still the same. I have comcast, am behind a router (linksys) and zonealarm( although after disabling and re-opening browser no increase in speed was found) I have 3 stars from the test. My speeds are as followed:
