wireless conection problem - kingvaillant - 10-17-2007
as the title is saying, I have a weird problem with my internet
I got a 5mbps high-speed connection which is working perfectly ( I have called the company and everything was fine )
but mysteriously my wireless internet card and my other Ethernet cable card are only downloading at 130Kps and with a ping of 297ms on a New York server
normally the download speed should be over 2Mbps and the ping should be around a maximum of 50ms
so as I believe my problem is in my network setting on my pc or in the setting of my modem/router
but I think it's my network setting because i haven't changed any setting in my modem and it was working fine a few days ago
I also have some difficulty to connect myself wirelessly(and stay connected for a long period) to my modem but this is just a minor problem
Thx for any help you can give

More details/Specifics would help.
What brand is your wireless router?
Who is your ISP?
Did you use the Windows Wizard to setup your network?
What OS is on each computer?

I sympathise with this problem, experienced something similar, try several broadband testing sites.. Not just Speedtest.net
I was getting poor results on Speedtest.net at certain times but not on other broadband testing sites, sugesting a problem at their end.. Wish I could be of more help.
