Solve : Really Slow internet!!!!!!?

Answer»

hi all i have been having some problems with my INTERNET...lately it has been really slow.....its take ages to load youtube videos and when i play on-line games my ping reaches 350 easy...it got slow in the last couple of DAYS i haven't installed anything new and i scanned my computer for ad-ware and VIRUSES...i have a netgear modem which is connected to my computer via Ethernet cable..BTW my internet is not capped..Did you scan for viruses and malware in safe mode?
And is this limited broadband? Some ISPs slow down your connection to crawl when you exceed the download limit.no i havnt yet scaned in safe mode but i will soon im USING an onlinescanner right now and no our download limit has not been reached yetComputer specs needed.What results do you get from http://www.speedtest.net/?i got this from the speed test:
download:4090kb/s
Upload: 681kb/s
server:mebourne
Ping:29mi
distance:50mi

I wouldn't complain about that then at all. Possibly the speed problems are out there on the wider internet. In which case, there ain't a fat lot you can do about it.i know my internet isnt great but its has been slower the past couple of days....Keep going to the speedtest page, particularly when the connection is slow, and see if you get different results.ok thankshey i just ran the speed test again and i got only 3990 download and 285 upload
hi all i would just like to say that the problem fixed itself my internet is fast again.....well fast enough lol thanks for everyones help i really appreciate it Great. The variation in download speed is tiny - and the variation in upload speed should hardly affect your browsing experience at all.
