Hey Tom's hardware!

So not long ago, I decided to start streaming some of the games I play, as I find it very entertaining watch others, so why not try it for myself?
After trying it out, I found out it was very laggy, which is really wierd, when my internet connection is supposed to be 40/40 or 30/30. When I then went to the connectionspeed tester from my provider, it showed 35/5, and I was like.. What the hell? I'm supposed to have atleast 25 more in upload, no?
So I went to check if it was the same as my laptop, and suprisingly enough, my laptop had no problem going 30/20+ on the same network. Both with/without cable.
- So how come my desktop not reaching 20+, when my laptop does? (I'm using cable from my router to my desktop, as I tried on my desktop)

Another thing: My router is downstairs, so I had to drag a cable outside of my house window, which wasn't long enough, so I extended it with another cable with a cable extender (Link below). I find it hard to believe, that it would consume 15 upload speed, when my download speed is the same as my laptop.. http://www.konsolshoppen.dk/image/cache/data/PC/R/RJ45%20Network%20Cable%20Extender-500x500.jpg

Hope you guys have some solution for me to try!
Thanks!

So, I found out that it isn't something with the cable, as it works just fine on my laptop. The problem lies within my Desktop it seems. Could it be driver problem? I just don't think it's that, as my brother using like almost the same driver, without problems.. >.<

So yeah, that didn't help anything. My upload speed is still dead. I read a thread earlier, about a program called iControl, which should be killing upload speed. I'm pretty sure, that it's not iControl tho, as I don't have it installed ^^
