[QUOTE="MarinaD, post: 1645447, member: 606607"] I realize that this may appear obvious, but it is not. I have two computers connected wirelessly through a Netgear router. When only computer A is connected, I get download and upload speeds that are perfectly normal. When computer A and computer B are connected, the speed on computer B is great (even above the amount for which I'm paying my ISP) but the download speed on computer A drops to nearly zero. When only Comp A is connected Download 4000 kbps Upload 1000 kbps When Comp A and Comp B are connected Comp A: Download 300 kbps Upload 550 kbps (yes, upload is higher than download) Comp B: Download 9500 kbps Upload 4000 kbps My question is: How do I get Comp A to work properly while Comp B is connected? (This is not a question about P2P or Torrent downloading. This is general Internet connection speed) [/QUOTE]
