Hey everyone, for the last 2 weeks my internet speed has been UNBEARABLY inconsistent to the point of frustration where I just get up off the computer. The upload speed that is supposed to be 3360 Kbps Download / 864 Kbps Upload, but lately has been terrible.
After trouble shooting multiple times, I tired a few things
1 - Reseting Router and waiting 10 minutes
2 - Attempt to optimize speed with TCP Optimizer
3 - Moving Router location ( I am not on wireless anyway )
4 - Turning off computer and performing multiple checks to ensure NOTHING is running in the background that could possibly slow the speed
5 - Completely change wi-fi password, as well as completely disable it ( So none of my other devices recieve Wi-fi ) and directly connceting my computer to the router so I have a direct ethernet conncetion.
I am so frustrated with my inconsistent and low speed, all suggestions are appreciated, and thank you so much in advance for your posts
