I have ie7 and windows xp 512 ram pentium 4 3.19 ghz
i have a broadband connection of 1mbps. This is share with others and i also have a wireless connection to my laptop.
Recently i went on vacation. During that time the modem turned off so my neighbour who is sharing my net connection came to turn on the modem. However when i returned i noticed my computer was also used and all my connections and my computer skewed up.
Now i can access the net can chat etc . but the pages are running VERY slowly, sometimes they dont even open up, or some parts of the page arent being displayed, I get the "Page cannot be displayed" ALOT, often need to refresh the page 5+ times for it to fully load, videos I stream online wont run until I've refreshed alot of times. Alot of sites I've completely given up on just because they dont work at my pace especially hotmail .
I thought it was a connection problem since sometimes it works reasonably weel and sometimes it is dead slow. But now when i use the laptop simultaneously i dont see the problem on the laptop. The pages open on the laptop in a jiffy. Thus i know the problem is my computer and not the connection
I have done virus scan trojan scan spyware etc nothing is found there can someone please help me restore my internet connection to its old speed. I tried tcp optimizer etc. BUt i dont know what i should be really doing.
I really in need of the internet connection since i have to submit my modules for a course on june 21 st and i am unable to search any information for this purpose quickly.\
PLEASE if anybody out there can help please help.
THANKS IN ADVANCE

You should never turn off your modem :exclaim: I have my DSL Modem connected to my UPS so it is on all the time.

Sounds like your modem lost it's setup. Contact your ISP and check the modem setup. Then check your WinXP LAN connections.

Also, I always suggest checking both boxes in the LAN connection Properties, General tab, so the connection icon is alway visible in the Taskbar Tray.

but my modem has been reset and stored with isp address settings all over again because i thought that was the problem however this did not solve my problem and how come it is working for the laptop and other people who are sharing my computer the connection is only slow in my computer all lan settings are off and connection is visible in task bar but the net connects it is only that it is very slow
