I have a RTL8180 Wireless Card. When I download files from sites and the speed is around 100Kbps, it takes ages to download still! More like double the time! I tried turning off ipv6 because somebody suggested it when I searched the forum for a similar problem.
Here is a screenshot of what network monitor looks like… It should be a constant 100.0, from here I can kinda see why its taking double the time.
Any suggestions and help would be appreciated! I’m clueless with this one… :shame: Even browsing the web is on the slow side. I did try another browser but the problem still exists.
Have you tried pulling down from another site completely? Tried using
something like ‘wget’ or ‘curl’ to grab a file? Ruled out this computer
by using another?
Good luck.
