Slow internet speeds and constant disconnections

Hi, when i first got BT broadband (unlimited option) i was getting 2mbps, now it seems that i can barely go past 100kbs. Strangely enough all internet speed tests i do results show that i get around 1mbps, but that is not what i am getting. If i download something i can barely browse the internet due to it taking all the 100kbs.

Since getting BT broadband my router has been constantly loosing connection and at points restarting itself. I could live with that due to the nice speed i was getting. If anyone could please help me i would appreciate it very much.

There are noticeable speed issues however you noise margin is high at 22.4 normal default is 6db when reduced to that level your connection speed would increase and like wise your download speed you could contact the forum mods and ask them to reset your noise margin this is a link to them

Slow internet speeds and dropping connection

hello, I am making this post on behalf of my dad, for a good few months (5-6 maybe even longer) we have been experiencing slow internet speeds and a dropping connection when ever the phone is picked up. when an incoming call is answered some or all devices connected to the internet drop out for a second then come back online, the connection does not completly disapear but causes any voice chat, streaming or gaming to disconect. We have BT wireless phones (not sure what exact type) which we have had for a few years. they are connected through an ADSL filter which as far i can remember has been there for years. We have a netgear DG834GT router which has also been there for a few years. I went onto its settings and got this information, not sure if its usefull or not.

Absurdly slow internet speeds and often unable to ...

I'm used to getting around 13 Mbps Internet speeds from BT.
In the last few days, although the speed tests show similar results (assuming I can actually get online to test them), Internet browsing has become painfully slow, with many pages simply not loading at all.
I've called BT, and been through some tests with them, and they assure me that everything is fine, and that my Internet speeds are as high as ever.
I've also done some hunting around on google, and tried using open DNS settings, but to no avail. It's especially hard to upload data, and it's almost impossible to send email.
Occasionally, if I turn on my Mac after a longish break, I can get online easily, and send e-mail for a few minutes, then the problem returns.
BT insist that there's nothing wrong with the line, but the fact that the problem affects both my Mac and my iPad suggests that the problem is not with my computer.
Indeed, I'm now in the local pub, and everything is working just fine.
I've been through all the usual things - checking location of Homehub (even though it was absolutely fine for 18 months in its current location), changed the ADSL micro-filter, changed the wireless channel, etc, and to no avail.
What else can anyone suggest?
Thank you.

So, the first time I did this speed-test was on my return home, when everything was working fine again.

Very slow broadband speed and random disconnection...

I have a problem with my home hub and broadband connection. The download speed is ridiculously low at only 768 kbits per second. I have been running speed tests all week and the speed has been getting gradually slower and slower starting at around 1.4mbits and lowering to between 0.4 and 0.8 mbps.The broadband is also losing connection every so often.
This has been happening for a few weeks now, ever since the broadband and phone lights on my Hub turned orange, then continually flashed orange, went green then went off and then back to orange, flashed orange, then green then off and this cycle repeated until I restarted my Hub. Upon restarting the power light turned solid red and did not change. So I restarted it again. This time it rebooted properly (or so it seems to have). Before this the hub was (still slow) around 2mbps although this was much better than the speed now.
I have a BT home hub version 1.5. I am on Bt Broadband option 3 meaning I should have unlimited broadband. Reason why I am asking for help is I am getting lag when ever I play games on My xbox 360 or browse on my laptop. Im in scotland, dundee in the DD2 post code area if that matters.
I have not tried plugging directly into the main telephone socket yet but as I have been using BT for well over 4 years and not had as little speed as this Im doubtful its due to interferance.
Any help would be fantastic. I just want to be able to play my **bleep** xbox again
Here is the DSL information. I have recently restarted my Hub (due to the broadband cutting out again). This is why the uptime is so low.

Quick update: Well, I moved my hub and have plugged it into the master test socket... Couldn't connect at all wirelessly, so I had to phone up the BT helpline, they changed the wireless channel and I got on after that (however the assistant said that my plugging into the socket should not have disabled the wireless.) As for the speed, well, needless to say there is little to no improvement. I cannot post my DSL stats, as I cannot even connect to my home hub via the ip address and the bthomehub.home address as the connection times out.

I have noticed that the DSL downstream speed has shot up remarkably (by about 4000) since plugging it in to the test socket, but for some reason, the IP profile is still very low, I would have expected it to have went up at least a little but it has remained the same for the past 2 days now should I be concerned with this or give it some more time?
Oh and I have an engineer coming to the house on friday, turns out when my parents were installing the broadband accelerator they inadvertently knocked out the wires to the extensions and now none of the extensions in the house are working so I hope he or she can resolve things with my speed and I will update on Friday evening, and again next Wednesday(after the 5 day period) to see if the IP profile speed has improved.

Slow Internet speed and more!!

I just got a Mac Book Pro (first one) and an airport extreme. I was told the setup for the airport was easy and I've got it working, but it seems very slow. I have two Iphones and a Dell PC on one network and the Macbook on an N network. At times the connection seems all right, but than it slows down. I'm 12 feet away from the airport and I can see it!!
I also have an Xbox 360 hardwired to the airport with no connections to Xbox live. I thought it would setup automatically since it is hard wired. Anyone have any thoughts?
In the time it took me to type this, it took my PC to load one internet page. That's like dial up!!!!
Thanks,
It's also taking 14 hours to download a cannon printer driver that is only 14mb, which doesn't seem right!!!!

Hello, thanks for your response.
I know it's a slow connection. As I said, I tried plugging through etherned and that's not the problem. Also as I said, I use this connection for normal web browsing on this macbook (this shouldn't be a problem in any OS or device). And finally (and also I mentioned it), the problem is only when using the MacBook Pro.
I have a couple of Android devices, an iPod Touch, a PS3 (where I play netflix movies) and I have no problem with all of them connected at the same time (and yes, I've tried connecting only the MacBook pro).
I don't want to 'speed up' my connection, I think this is not a normal behavior in any OS or platform, I just thought someone could know about "hidden" OS X proccesses or could have the same issue.
Thanks again for your response.

Slow Inernet speeds and navigation

Hello.. I am a newbie so hope I can explain my problem accurately.
My Desktop PC is really slow espcially when I am accessing websites using either Chrome or IE.- Even Youtube is very choppy- ( Note..I have the latest version of both browsers but they are slow. (I am wired to my modem)
When I check the speed from my ISP using my HP desktop it is significantly slower than when I connect another laptop to my modem.
I have done all the virus updates,malware, disk clean up/defrag but it is still slow.
Navigating to other menus (My compuer, control panel etc) is not the best but it could be better in terms of speed
Could there be something wrong with graphics card or some other hardware? How can I test this.
I dont do gaming but I think this PC should be much better.
I appreciate your direction.
Here is the specs below. Let me know if you need more information.

Very Slow Internet Connection and Backups

I have had a Time Capsule for some time now (1st generation) and it has caused nothing but headaches. I have put up with it for some time but I have a very slow internet connection and cannot leave Time Machine on or it bogs down my machine, so I only backup periodically. Specifics are provided below.
I have a poor internet connection to begin with. When plugged in directly either to my modem or through Ethernet to the Time Capsule, I get download speeds of ~ 2.9 Mbits/sec download, 0.7 Mbits/sec upload. When connected over wireless, the speeds drop to about 0.6 Mbits/sec download, 0.6 Mbits/sec upload. I feel like I am working on dial-up. I have both a Mac and a PC, and speeds are the same on both, so it does not appear to be a computer issue. I have played with various settings in the Airport, including how connected (b-n or n only), DHCP settings, etc, but nothing makes a difference. Any suggestions?

Welcome to the discussion area, bigbrianb!
Have you downloaded a utility like iStumbler to get a look at the signal strength and noise on your wireless network?
iStumbler will display most of the other wireless networks around you, so you'll have an idea of the competition for unused channels. Ideally, you want your network to be on a channel that is at least 4-5 channels away from any other network to minimize the chances of wireless interference. Is that the case there?
Your signal strength should be 50% or greater and noise less than 10% for a good quality connection on your network. Is that the case there?
There are more things to test, but this will get things going.

Slow internet speed -upgraded it to highest speed

I have had FiOS internet for about four years and never questioned the speed 10/2, but I had it plugged into the router. On 3/4, I upgraded to TV FiOS/internet and phone bundle. I do not have my computer where the router is located now (downstairs) and I had asked them to move it upstairs, but left before they had done it. When I checked the speed (I guess the wireless speed since it is not plugged in to the router), it was 15.66/10 mbps. I ordered the 35/35 mbps speed bundle. I called Verizon and asked them about it and she checked the speed and said that it was "pretty good" considering it is wireless. What? I am not getting what I am paying for. Do I need a DSL filter on all the phone lines? Do I need a new router (I still have the old one)? I have read on the community here that everyone has called several times to get an answer to the slow internet speed problem. Does anyone have the 35/35 mbps speed plan and have it work at this speed? I might as well go down to the 15 or 25 plan if that speed is all I am every going to get......But maybe if I go down to 25 plan, I'll get 10 or 15...... I will continue to try and work with Verizon to get this solved. .Thanks for any help.

Slow internet speed - terrible service

For the last 5 weeks I have been plagued with very slow internet speed. I have spent at least 4 hours on the phone with verizon techs. They always say that they will call back and never do. This is absolutely the worst service imaginable.

Step one: Visit http://www.giganews.com/line_info.html and post up the Traceroute the page shows, if you wish. Be aware that your non-bogan public IP Address will show up. It might shown up as the final hop (bottom-most line of the trace) might contain a hop with your IP address in it. Either remove that line or show only the first two octets. What I'm looking for is a line that mentions "ERX" in it's name towards the end. If for some reason the trace does not complete (two lines full of Stars), keep the trace route intact.
For example this what I saw when I was using Verizon
news.giganews.com
    traceroute to 71.242.*.* (71.242.*.*), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets
    1 gw1-g-vlan201.dca.giganews.com (216.196.98.4) 13 ms 13 ms 13 ms
    2 ash-bb1-link.telia.net (213.248.70.241) 39 ms 7 ms 7 ms
    3 TenGigE0-2-0-0.GW1.IAD8.ALTER.NET (63.125.125.41) 4 ms 4 ms GigabitEthernet2-0-0.GW8.IAD8.ALTER.NET (63.65.76.189) 4 ms
    4 so-7-1-0-0.PHIL-CORE-RTR1.verizon-gni.net (130.81.20.137) 6 ms 6 ms 6 ms
    5 P3-0-0.PHIL-DSL-RTR11.verizon-gni.net (130.81.13.170) 6 ms 6 ms 6 ms
    6 static-71-242-*-*.phlapa.east.verizon.net (71.242.*.*) 32 ms 32 ms 33 ms
Step two: Can you provide the Transceiver Statistics from your modem?
#3 If you don't know how to get that info:
a) What is the brand and model of your modem?
b) If you have a RJ-45 WAN port router connected to it: What is the brand and model of the RJ-45 WAN port router?
#4 If you have a RJ-45 WAN port router connected to the modem, even if you know how to get the Transceiver Statistics from the modem: What is the brand and model of the RJ-45 WAN port router?

Slow internet speed, being used by unknown websites

Hello all,
For about a month i have been experiencing slower internet speeds than usual. Contacted the isp and went through all the processes and there was not a problem at their end. I was advised to go to network utility and check how many processes there were, found out that there was too many to count.
It seems i have internet processes coming from my macbook ip address from uknown sources such as ookla.com etc. Now i have downloaded spyware programs for mac which have failed to find any viruses or spyware at all.
Now i know the problem is coming from my macbook as the unwanted guests our appearing under the macbook ip address, my router is receiving the right speed so it can't be the isp?
Right now i am just wondering what to do to stop these processes using up my internet connection and potentially turning my router into a server.
Any help would be grateful.
Mark Lees

Yeah i have little snitch but it appears to not spot these websites, i can send you a screenie of the netstat screen
Then that would imply the only connections going out from your mac are from legitimate applications.
lots of things will engage outbound connections.
safari
firefox
itunes
spotify
and sites that you visit that have embedded video often host the video on other servers. So you would be suprised at how many socket connections you have at anyone time.
If you have little snitch look at the monitor window and it will show all the recent connections.
You could reset little snitch to default rules and then you will be prompted to allow or deny each new connection.

Extremely slow download speeds and internet browsing on Macbook pro

I recently got a 13"" macbook pro. System config - Maverick OS/i7 dual core/8GB RAM/750 GB HDD, Almost 690GB of free space available. I am expriencing extremely slow download and internet browsing speed. I have to wait for almost 10-12 seconds for normal sites to download. The app updates and downloads are painstakingly slow.
The internet speeds are working perfectly fine on my Windows Laptop, and even on my mobile phones. So, the there's no issue of network. Also, I have cleared safari cache etc, just to be sure. But nothing's really helping.
Can any one help me here.
Thanks !

Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If the answer is no, do that now and see whether there's any change.
Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
Log out and log back in. Any change?
Enable Private Browsing in the Safari menu. Any change?
Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
Again, if only Safari is involved, open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Safari, if it's checked. Any change?
Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?

Apple TV and slow internet speeds?

I live in Ireland and unlike the US, we have quite slow internet with a national max of about 7mb (which is what I have)
How would the streaming work with this kind of network?

Are those speeds, related to the stated internet speeds, or the download speeds? The usual download speed is around 600kbs for me, hit 1.3mps once but haven't got close since then.
I have a fixed 1Mbps connection in UK, and I strongly suspect that for rentals, the new device will do what the old one did - in other words it will not let you play until enough has downloaded to theoretically allow you to watch the movie completely as the tail end of the film downloads in the background.
I hope that the new device will save the rental stream to the device's internal solid state memory (8GB) to allow you to pause/rewind/restart/rewatch etc during the playback period WITHOUT having to redownload.
If on the other hand it stores nothing, buffers a small amount, and relies on a fairly nippy internet connection to stream live, you, I and many others without high speed connections will be stuffed for rentals.
Anything in your iTunes library however that's compatible will be limited for playback by your home network speeds not the internet.
