I am fully patched and service packed up.

I also forgot to mention, I am running a PCMCIA wireless card on the laptop and a USB wireless card on the Desktop.

The desktop is pulling slightly higher on average at around 3.4 MB down.

alot of ppl has reporting slowdowns with USB network adapters, also wireless can slow you down too

anyways we can give this a shot but dont expect too much

download this file, unzip it to C:\Program\Cablenut

open cablenut adjuster, click delete cablenut tweaks and click save to registry

in top left corner click file, load custom settings file, browse to C:\Program\Cablenut and dubbleclick on the file you unzipped

now you have a few values set in adjuster, click save to registry and reboot, also reboot your modem, router for 30 seconds

post a new tweaktest and speed

Although wireless and USB connections are convenient and necessary for many ppl, they are in fact speed thieves, mostly its always a trade off.. Its often not piratical to hardwire everything and if more than one puter is involved or your using a network you do what ya gotta do to get up and running...... good luck and tell your friends about testmy.net

I am running a 802.11b router/card, which I know is limited to a theoretical 11Mbps, would my speed increase if I upgrade to an extreme 802.11g (104Mbps) router/PCI card or do I just need to buy a 30 ft. piece of Cat 5 to run to my pc?
