    not getting my dl speed any help


    ok everything worked fine in till i upgraded my net speed to 30.mb dl 4.mb up
    the only way i get that is a straight connection modem to my 1 desktop
    1 of my desktops will give me 6mb down & 4 up with that same connection
    now when i put my router in play it will give me my old speed

    Is that router a wireless G? What are you using to find your dl/upl speeds?

    Are you saying you are plugging up 2 different desktops with an ethernet cable, and one gives you 30MB/s down and the other gives you 6MB/s down?

    I think it might have to do with the LAN ports on each PC...sounds like one is a 10/100 and the other is 10/100/1000 (gig port). Depending on the time of day your checking your speeds, how much traffic is on the net when your checking...can affect your speeds.

    Looking at our mobo specs, I see it has a 10/100 LAN port....you could replace that with 10/100/1000 PCI card. That will definitely help out with your data speeds.
