2 comps on wired router.
comp 1 is downloading at 600k/s on a 5mb broadband connection.
comp 2 cannot even websurf that well or go on any chatting program.
problem due to crappy router or massive bandwidth use by comp 1?

Can computer 2 browse with computer 1 disconnected? If not, what about if computer 2 is wired straight into the modem? Also, what kind of router are you running?
-
yea comp 2 can browse even when comp 1 is downloading heavy. but it just blunty "sucks arse." im running a d-link di-804.

broadband cable at 5mb.
the problem is. when one comp is downloading heavily. i cant keep a consistent connection on AIM. and websurfing is slowzorz. -
Im going to have to say, yes. It is because of the heavy downloading.

Run Cablenut on pc2, to optimize the connection.
Turn on QoS. for bandwidth control. -

Is the first computer download and uploading heavily? I know that when I'm uploading anything, everyone in my family suffers.

Could your ISP be throttling your bandwidth due to heavy downloading?

im on vista, that prog doesn't work. i just got a linksys wrt45gl on newegg. hopefully that will fix the prog. and if it doesn't then ill run dd-wrt on that and do bandwidth control on that. thanks for the help guys.

Vista has QoS enabled by default
