From maybe a few weeks ago my download speed has gone for 200 kb/sec to 10-50kb/sec I thought it was a virus/spy ware problem i had untill i got help in getting rid of it but the virus and spyware problem is gone now and im still left with this dire download speed.

In a game my ping is around 30-60 and still is the same and my ping on other programs.. ect but the only time my internet fails me in when i download something off any sites.

There was people talking around where i live about others hijacking the internet company that provids my internet and other wireless users were at risk, im not using wireless at the moment but could this be the problem and how do i fix it with a password ?


Thanks, SMiLEii.

To secure a wireless network, check in the Networking forum.

For your download speeds, are you running a firewall, and has it been updated recently? I assume you are using a router... have you tried forwarding the ports?
