Hi Alonetime
I'm having the same issue. Its really frustrating. If I do speedtest when I first boot the PC I get about 210-220kbps. If I do it again in 2 minutes I get dialup speeds of 55-60kbps. I have 2 PCs. On my old one its not an issue. So I'm guessing its an issue with some setting on my new PC.
Heres a list of things I have tried without any lick:
* installed a network card - no difference
* checked the drivers for the mobo and the network card - all ok
* increased the number of connections to 20 - no difference
* installed google web accellerator - no difference
* tried both firefox and ie7 - no difference
* disabled all of my virus protection software - firewall, defender and nortons - still no difference
* done all of the tweaking things you can do for Fire fox - no joy.
Good luck and please post what you did if you are successful.
