Router Problem... possibly

[Geek-9pm]

Am I missing something?
Did you say that at one time your trouble machine was wired to then router and it worked fine? at that time  That is an vital detail.

No, it's never 'worked' when wired.

Apologies if I confused you.

Check your McAfee features and settings. I've never used McAfee before but looking at the information on the internet, it has real-time protection, firewall and antimalware/spyware. Can you check your windows firewall if its also enabled along with McAfee's firewall.

No, it's never 'worked' when wired.

Click on Start - Control Panel - View Network Status - Change Adapter settings (Left Panel).
Do you see a Local Area Connection icon for your LAN card (Ex. Atheros xxxx PCI Ethernet) together with Network icon for wireless card?
If yes, right-click LAN icon and choose Properties - Click Configure. Under General tab, what is the status of the device?

"This device is working properly."

I've got BT coming on Monday to check the phone line, I figured it wouldn't do any harm to have it checked out.

Ok, keep us posted if everything is resolved.

The BT guy came. Line was fine (he had trouble locating it at first but apparently was all fine). So, I bought a new router (a Netgear one) - new speed test:



Guess there was an issue with my router. Not going to by Belkin again.

Thanks for the help though )
