Hello, lads!
I got a weird and unexplainable problem regarding my internet connection.
You see, a few days ago i bought a new desktop pc to replace my old one, wich had problems with the audio parts. But now, the new pc has horrible internet connection (on speedtest.net, i get ~9mbps download and 0.0mbps upload speed). At the beginning a thought the onboard network adapter is faulty, so i installed a network card; still the same. I tried the same cable on the old pc and boom: 89mbps download and 20mbps upload.
However, last night i wanted to watch the football match (Rou - Alb) and work on my pc at the same time, so i moved it in my living room, where it was connected to another internet cable, and guess what ? It worked perfectly, I had 95mbps download and 31 mbps upload. So in other words:
- My pc is not faulty, as it works very well in the living room
- The internet cable in my room is not damaged, as it works fine on the old pc
- My router is not to blame; the other computers and smartphones in my house work without a hitch
I'm out of ideas; my last theory is that something is not compatible, don't know exactly what. So please guys, if you have any ideas, let me know
Thanks.
