speed problems

[lee551]

i'm having a connectin speed problem. i have DSL, but i'm not sure what speed i'm subscribed to. i know that i can easily get speeds of 70+kbps on bittorrent and equal speeds on overnet, limewire, ares, etc.

lately my speeds haven't been breaking 30kbps. it is as if a cap has been put on me at 30kbps. i did a speed test a dslreports, and they confirmed that my connection is only capable of 37.7kbps. that is approximately half of what i was getting just a few days ago. what could have caused this?

i have clean virus and spyware scans. no firewalls running (xp's or others). i have restarted my modem and even messed with my switch trying to get things clicking again. only things i've installed recently was a RAM tweaker which i deleted anyways.

could my isp have capped me? :frusty:

call them - they will verify whethr it is you or them or the modem or something else

You also could go to 2wire.com and run the bandwidt test.
If your geting 37kB, you might have the 360kbps conection.
