Hello I have 100 MB and when I download a torrent file I download it on 1-1.4 MB, I'm with a network card and and the router is in the next room and I just checked the other room and there are 95 mb and in my computer there is only 45
what do I do ?
my router and network card support in more then 100MB
 
You have 100Mb (notice the small b). If you download at 1.4MB (notice the big B). That is a 10 fold increase. So first, get your "b"'s in line.

Next, a torrent doesn't mean anything in terms of speed. That's only how fast the other seeds can send it to you.

Where are you getting the figures of 95 and 45 from? If you haven't, go to speedtest.net and use that for gauging speeds.

How far is the "next room" compared to your PC? cable length affects speed, as does quality of the cable. A crappy cable will get less speed.

And just because you have 100Mb/s, doesn't mean you will hit that on anything but doing speedtests. No sites or torrents usually send out that fast.

Also, does your computer go straight from the router in the other room into your pc via a cable, no other switches or anything else in between?

I did the test on speedtest.net
I have a tplink device which connected to my computer with a cable and in the other room (about 10ft away) there is just black box and it has the LAN cable and power and one more cable

ok and how do I check it ? if it's N or G
 


Look up the modem/router combo thing online. I have no idea what you have. Right now though, you're getting almost full G speeds.
