When i go to Control Panel > Network & Sharing & Click on view status of my network, it says my speed is 18.0Mbps usually?
Surely something is wrong :S?

That is your link speed, it's how fast your computer communicates over the network.
Are you on wired or wireless?
You,
Looking this over, its definate that your on wireless - speeds will drop as signal quality drops. Now this could be caused by being too far away from your router or simply interference, how far are you away from your router? And if its less then 30ft if you were to think about the wireless going in a straight line, how many walls does it go through, or how many electriccal applicances does it pass?
Further questions, how old is your house?
18Mbps however is still faster than your broadband (as long as your not on Virgin's 20Mbps), so you should be fine.
Wireless, my router is about 40 CM from my PC & yeah, i am on Virgin 20Mbps :PQuote:
