OK, i already posted i no, but people seem to just want to crack jokes instead of help me. I will try to explain this as clearly as possible.

A few days ago i had a 3 mbit connection. I testes on CNET's site. The next time i turned on my computer i had one of those annoying little bubbles pop up and say i had limited connectivity. Then i told it to repair me internet. When it finished it said everything was ok. I went back on the net and it ran worse than dial up. I tested my speed and it told me it was 20kbit/s. I was shocked. I have no idea what happened. I have other computers on my network thet work just fine right now. I don;t think its spyware or viri because i just reformated 30 min ago and i thought that would help. Neways if anyone knows how to fix this plz tell me.

Make sure the nic is set as auto , do not hardcode the nic as this will cause errors and slow transmit times .
