i got 12mb internet connection.
my pc (win7) is connected to the router, and in speed test i get 12mb, and 500ms~.
but with my laptop(winxp), thats connected wireless, i get 22ms~.
how is that possible?
whats wrong with my pc?
Welcome to sevenforums devilite. Hows your win 7 pc connected to the router and what standard of wireless card is fitted to your laptop or is your laptop connected by ethernet?
the laptop isnt the issue,
my pc is connected to a router, and the router is connected to a modem.
The reason I asked about both is because I was trying to figure why the time difference and whether this was due to a wireless / wired issue. If your PC is connected by wire ie ethernet, you could try using a different cable as these sometimes break at the RJ54 plug.
May also be worth connecting the PC to a different port on the router, it's not unknown for a port to go bad.
the cables are pretty new, so thats not the issue.
and i tried to connect it to a different port, still i get the same problem....
I assume the speedtest is hitting the same 'site' for both tests, right?
Newness of cables is not a guarantee of being working......
