connection speed indicator

when I connect to the internet, the two little computers now always say 26.4, because something happened with the phone lines up here. I wanted to know is that number from the server, or what I'm putting out, or what is coming in, or something else.
Also, as soon as I connect, my connection gets slower and slower. It can get as slow as 100 bytes per second! This is what my downloads say as they are downloading. I've tried internet speed boosters and deleting temporary files. Is there other things that I can do?

 

Have you done the maintenace to clean the disk & defrag ... also have you scanned for Virus & spyware?


Savvy

I recommend Housecall for Virus, Worms & Trojan scans...
