Slowing adsl connection
HI,
I have a 1.5 adsl connection and in the last few weeks it has slowed. I have scanned my computer for spyware and viruses and it seems clean. I haven't installed or changed any settings lately. My laptop connects at 1.5 Mb no problem, I have tested this through a speed test website. But my desktop, only gets around 400k. If you re boot it will run at the full 1.5 but slows dramatically after a couple of minutes. Also if you "repair" network connection It comes good for a couple of minutes. I have a wireless card in the desktop and a netgear modem/router I gathered that since my laptop connects ok that the router must be ok? Could It be a hardware problem? I cant think what else to try? thankyou Larry |

Re: Slowing adsl connection
This screams malware to me.
