Issue: Noticed an increase in page load time on a PC I hardly use for internet access. Ran a line test and found that i was downloading at a rate of: 2.5Mbps and uploading at a rate of 80Mbps.

System: Custom built HTPC with a GA-E350n motherboard with a PCI-E Wireless Adapter running Windows 7 Ultimate x86

Failed Troubleshooting:
*Connecting to a different Access Point(AP) the same distance from the original.
*Switching to a wireless N AP only
*Using a different wireless adapter
*Different device in the same room with results of 80Mbps/80Mbps(expected)
*Disabling Windows Firewall and WMM
*Ran Spyware/Malware Scanners with no results found
*Created a new user


Please provide me with solutions to fix this issue. I am unable to run a wired connection to the PC. I was thinking it had to do with the Operating System but this PC is strictly used for Netflix and playing DVDs/BluRays.

Thanks For All Inputs!

UPDATE: Tried testing with a live Linux CD (Lubuntu) with the same results of about 2.5/80. Any other suggestions?
