Re: dl speed drops quickly

• I have/am using Spybot without any issue. Did you immunize? Try booting when it is disabled and see if that does anything. Remember to disable Tea Timer as this is part of Spybot.

• Can you please retweak with the settings above?

• Are your NIC properties set to auto or 100/Full?

This problem started about a year ago.
It happens with wifi and when I am directly connected to the modem. I am not running any sw firewall, but I am running spybot

• The RWIN is not set to what I suggested.

• It does not matter that much since this is not a tweaking issue.

• Can you connect the box directly to the MODEM and test from there?

• Has this issue been there from day one or did it just start?

• Are you running any SW firewall?

This could take a while, so you might run this first. If it's too backed up, do it later, if requested.

Hi,

I have Verizon Fios 20/5. When I first turn on my laptop I run a speed test from speakeasy.net and get a dl speed of around 17megs. If I goto youtube, the video starts out fine, but becomes choppy after a minute. I then run the speed test and get 3megs dl.

Anyone have any thoughts on what is going on?
I have run many hardware diagnostics test and everything looks good. This happens if I am directly connected to my router or using the wireless.

Thanks
Randy
