A family member complained that his wireless laptop has been experiencing slow Internet performance and I thought it was simply a problem with his laptop. However I just ran a DSL speed test from dslreports.com on a wired PC and found that while the upload speed was normal, the download speed was 1/20 of normal (135K vs. 2500K). I just upgraded to a RV042 from a Netgear RP614V2 that did not have any throughput issues.
I have configured a few forwarded ports and static IP addresses in the router, but otherwise the configuration has not been changed.
Any ideas what could be going on?
Thanks,
Anthony
