No, sorry, I'm at 32.5 kbps. WTF. That's like fucking dial up. Oh many many profanities.

That's extremely slow. Are you on a broadband connection?

edit: I'm currently running at 1357.7 Kbps on broadband. (TW Road Runner)

edit: This is running 2 computers on the same broadband connection with a wireless router. Not too bad if you ask me.

Wow thats insanely slow. If I was you I would check for Spyware/adware and also do a full virus scan. You may have a trojan or two on that bad boy.

I would scan with this first
http://www.filehippo.com/download_ewido/

Then do a free full virus scan here next
http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ 

Then go to Pc pitstop and do a full test on your pc to check it all out. They also have speed test here. Look on the left.

http://www.pcpitstop.com/pcpitstop/default.asp

If all this fails you may also try resting your router if you use one. Unplug for a few seconds and plug back in.

If you do all this and still no luck call your ISP and yell alot.

Good Luck :wink:

First I'd call them up and see if it is just me, assuming the isp has a 24/7 help line. :shrug:

Okay, now I'm at 784, I restarted. things are transferring faster, but it still feels slow. I do have comcast, that's why I had spouted off many profanities I shortened for posting purposes to - 'many profanities'

Anyway, does this just sound like a wires heating up really warm and cooling issue, or does this sound like internal viruses/ crap.

If there are a lot of people using their connection in your area it can slow you down.

It probably shouldn't be that slow, are you running any P2P programs, or anything like that?

It could be your ISP was having troubles. :shrug: However you could have some form of spyware, virus, etc on your system. Do you have a virus scanner that you keep updated frequently? You should do a full system scan at least once a month. :thumbup:

Also for spyware you should pick up a copy of Spyware Doctor and AdAware.

Spyware Doctor Torrent
AdAware SE Pro Torrent

Spybot Search and Destroy also works good:

Well that's wierd. The first test I did was at only 768 kbps, which is pretty damn slow for my Bell South DSL. Then I hit my back button like wrestler said, and now I'm at 3689 kbps, which is more like what I'm paying for. Am I really at 3689, or is that inaccurate?
I'm on a Mac, so I don't think I have any spyware, viruses, etc.

Well you may have already solved your problem by now but I forgot to mention one more handy little tool for increasing your broadband speeds.

TCP Optimizer
Description: The TCP Optimizer is a free, easy Windows program that provides an intuitive interface for tuning and optimizing your Internet connection. There is no installation required, just download and run
