Serious problems with internet.
hi,
sorry if this is a dupe post but i really can not be bothered reading through 15k of threads.
anyway, since i got win7 ultimate iv been having really bad internet problems. the problem isnt the internet, because i can connect to steam and websites perfectly. but when i try to connect to a game server, download a file through a browser or teamview someone it connects for about 40 seconds (as logged by teamviewer) then it just dies. for downloads in the browser it will just drop to 0kb/s and i have to pause and unpause it for it to work, for teamviewer the viewing screen just locks up, as for game servers its a bit stupid. i tried to connect to a blackops server yesterday and it kicked me off straight away (cos it takes almost a minute for me to get onto the server), but for like a garrysmod server i can connect no problem. also my internet has been extremely slow. im currently on ADSL 2+ and im not capped.
i have tried swapping out the network card and its made no difference. is there any way to fix this? and if there is can you Please tell me whats wrong? id prefer to know whats wrong and how to fix it.
thanks in advance.
EDIT: everyone elses internet in the house works fine. Also i recently swapped (dual booted) xp with 7 and i had to change to a newer network card for 7. xp worked fine with the internet.
