Is there any computer setting the may cause DSL to slow down?

Question

My internet has been slow for a few months now and it's KILLING me. There doesn't seem to be anything wrong with my modem/gateway. And my speed went from around 250 tops to 45 tops. Any solutions or comments would be appreciated. Thank you.

Answer 1

DSL speed is not really computer related.

Run the test here:  http://www.speedtest.net

If your speeds are low, restart your modem and router and retest.  If still bad, I would call the ISP and complain.

Even your high numbers are bad.  What are you paying for, speed wise, up and down?
