Slow downloads
Hi,
I have recently started using a Windows 7 laptop and I am increasingly concerned by the slow download speeds I am experiencing.
I have a 20MB broadband package and speed testers on my laptop confirm that I am getting close to this. However, when I download anything (e.g. games, drivers etc.) the downloads are very slow with an average transfer rate of approx 60 kbps.
I also have an i-mac on my network and downloads from the same sites are considerably faster.
Is this a Windows 7 problem - or can anyone shed any light on this?
Thanks
