Windows 7: Wireless download speed ~.38 Mbs

My wireless download speed has dropped to about .38Mbs since I installed Win7Pro64bit. I've troubleshot with MS, HP and AT&T and still no luck. Wired it's about 1.4 Mbs so there is something amiss. Have the latest wifi driver, no router, just an AT&T/2Wire modem, 2901HG.

can we get your system specs?

I would double check that you have the correct driver installed. Refer to first tut in my sig. I have been cought with installing a compatible driver, as appose to the latest and greatest.

I've bee through the driver drill with both HP and MS. It's an Artheros AR5009 and I can find no other driver when I search for one. Re the system spec, where do I get a concise report of that, 3GB RAM, HP DV5Z-1000?

a program like Lavalys - Comprehensive IT Security and Management or Hardwaremania BlackBox | slogan both free will give you everything you need. these are good to have if your ever having problems they can really help people find exactly what they need.

I just completed a report via Lavalys and it is BIG. Do you really want me to post that, if I can, or could you be more explicit what I should retrieve.

I'll post anything to assist with the discussion of my problem, I simply need a little guidance of what and how to provide that info.

OK, here goes, this is what I have extracted with BlackBox...

Ughh, 2wire modems FTL.

Something tells me that thing could be the culprit.

At you wired or wireless to that modem/router combo?

Wireless is the prob, wired to it is OK. Previous to the Windows 7 upgrade running Vista wireless OK. Another XP netbook wireless OK, visitors running Vista wireless OK. A Vista desktop wired is OK.
