Hello, this will be my first post. As said already, I pay shaw for their advertised 100mps speed, yet I do not get those results. Here are my results from 10 minutes ago.

I don't understand why I am not getting even 80% of what I pay for. Also, my friend who is wireless tested to be about 3 mps and has about same speed as me, if not faster internet browsing.

These are my crappy computer specs. I am aware that my ram is very very low, but I don't think my browsing speed should  :buck2: . I am pretty sure I have no virus' atm and I just scanned and clean my computer of spywares.

I just want to know any tips on improving my browing speed and my downloading speed. (eg.my 30mps to 80mps maybe)

Are you sure you are on the 100 meg service, and not the 25 meg service. If your on the 25 meg service your speeds are just fine. I would love to have that kind of speed.

Yes, I am 100% sure that is what I am paying for. Also, I just tried tweaking my net, and nothing much has changed except my ping packet loss went from 2% to 0%.
