xNikk Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Hello all.This is my first time posting, but I've read through a lot of the posts here, and have still yet to find a problem like my own, let alone how to resolve it.When downloading from my laptop, I get speeds as high as 250 kilobytes/sec download. However, when I use my desktop, the speeds I get tend to be no higher than 50-60 kilobytes/sec.Both computers are connected to the same router. The laptop is connected wirelessly, the desktop is wired.The laptop is connected with a Turbo G card, 108mbps.The desktop is wired at 100mbps.I have the settings set the same on both computers, the only difference being the port I forward to each one.I have tried swapping the ports, but the desktop is still much slower than the laptop.Both computers are running Windows XP Pro SP3.Does anyone have any suggestions?

Switeck Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 What is the real speed of your internet connection both down and up?Have you tried both the 1st and 2nd links in my signature? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hermanm Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 Go run a speed test (like speedtest.net) and try them from different locations and see if you get any difference with the laptop and desktop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
