Hi everyone,
I'm having this strange kind of problem that I never heard of. I'm myself a computer science student, so I solve most of my computer problems by myself. Here's whats going on. I can't download anything, I can't even open a webpage completely, it dies after downloading 80% of the page. If I go to windowsupdate.com, it starts downloading and then dies after like 20%. First I thought there was some kind of issue with our college network. But then I used my friend's laptop, and connected it with the same port and it worked just fine. Here's the result of the problem.
- Can't open any heavy page completely.
- Can't download anything from anywhere including download.com
- Can't download windows update files.
- Most of the times, the computer browser dies trying to download graphics.
- https is even worst.
I tried almost everything. Reinstalled my network card drivers, Still can't figure out anything. Any help ?
