I just switched from xfinity to brighthouse networks after moving and now my desktop internet is extremely slow. I did lower my internet speed from 15 down and 3 up to 7 down .5 up. I realize that alone will make it slower, but this is ridiculous slow and its just on my desktop. My labtop is fine, but the desktop takes 15-20 seconds to load this page.

Have ran spybot, and windows security essentials scan and all windows updates.

Speed test on desktop:
Down: 6.8m (847kb/sec)
Up: .5m (61kb/sec)


Setup:
Amd Athlon II x4 635 @ 3.2 ghz
MB: Asus m4a785td-m evo
2x1 gb kingston hyperx
windows 7 home premium
any suggestions?

Everything else on the computer runs fine, all windows and programs open normally, however I can not connect to the steam network. Makes me think it is router or modem related.

Added information:

It takes about 10-15 seconds to load google, but once I do the search it only takes the .25s or w.e it normally takes, and I can search different things just like normal, but when opening a new web page it is slow..

Sorry for the long story just wanted to provide as much information as I could think of, any suggestions appreciated.

labtop is connected wireless

Desktop is wired with ethernet and it is a Netgear wireless cable modem model cgd24g

Labtop results:
ping: 39 ms
jitter: 4ms
packet loss was 60%

Desktop says couldnt connect to test server. A firewall could be blocking the system...

Make sure that the desktop network setting have a gateway address that is the router address and that it is getting an IP address automatically from the router DHCP service, and disable any desktop firewall to the router gateway address.

Check your wireless settings too and maybe run inSSIDer: http://www.metageek.net/products/inssider/
That program will let you see interfering wireless networks -- you have way too much packet loss.

That information all looks fine for an internal network, and should work for both computers if the router/cable are working. Try typing 192.168.0.1 into your browser, then use ID = admin, password = password and look at the settings, particularly the DHCP assignment table. You should see both computers listed.

ummm dhcp server is yes under "lan ip"
"cable network settings" dhcp not static

should I set up a remote management, honestly it is so annoying it takes 15-20 seconds to load a page.

That is probably due to your high packet loss rate, perhaps changing the wireless channel will help with that, at least it is simple and worth a try. The three non-overlapping channels are 1, 6, and 11 for your router; so whatever is set try the others.

Did the desktop connect after disabling the firewall? If so, is it loading pages faster? Does it have similar packet loss at pingtest.net? If the desktop has the same packet loss, that indicates that the problem is more likely with your new ISP, rather than your internal wireless network settings.

I was actually able to load the first few steps of the test today but right before it started testing it failed again. Just to add, after I am on google, or youtube, something like that it still takes the same amount of time to load the search results, but still loading the page takes 20 seconds.

I'm trying ;) He hasn't responded to me yet and I suspect something else is going on but until I can take a look at his equipment there isn't much I can do ;)
