Well after speeding up last night and this morning, the Internet is back to being as slow as dial up again today. It often takes me the best part of five minutes to load a page and more often than not it just stops. What puzzles me is that the laptop which is working wirelessly is fine. Does this imply that the problem is with my computer itself or some of its settings as it's connected to the router by cable? Surely it can't be the phoneline as the laptop is having no problems whatsoever?
