Windows 7: download rate

another slight problem is when i download a program. it was running at 250KB/s prior to Windows 7. now it is only 80KB/s.
ofcourse, not all of the support cd's i have work on Windows 7,. i'm hoping all of the drivers are correct but i not sure.
gimme a shout if you need any data on realtek or whatever,,,thanks again,,,g

Hi and welcome to seven forums

Mrreg

There is one thing yo can do if you are not using homegroup. IPv6 can be disabled in network and sharing.


There are other things we can do but need some info abut your networking setup.

Thanks

Ken

okay, thanks. i'll sort some info and post it, tomorrow. g

Because any connection is only as fast as the slowest component, individual download rates are not a valid test.

Go to speedtest.net or some similar bandwidth test site and compare your results to your subscribed rate.
