I have 2 Computers on a network, mine(b) is wireless54g the other(a) is LAN.. even when i bypass the router and direct connect the computer(a) the same problem exist. I have contacted my Internet provider everything seems fine.. when I do a speedtest on mine(b) its 4700Kbps with 480upload
on the LAN (a) its 254Kbps with about 480upload. Its to my understanding that the upload is norm. but the download on (a) is as u can see very slow. cant load pages have the time. So im starting to think that the computer has the problem. maybe the network card is going bad. but i see no software issues or hardware. no exclamation points or X's in the device managers or network management. please help!! thanks
