Rogue Leader :
How far from your wireless access point are you? Have you tested other devices on it, and if so what speeds do you get?
Well, it's in the same spot as my other computer was, but get this.. in the time that you replied to this and that I hopped back on my computer to check it, the speeds went up to about 5mbps, which is what they usually are, so I guess things just fixed themselves! Or maybe you brought some good luck
