You could also try plugging directly into your cable modem if you're using wireless. A while ago I found out certain Macs don't like WPA Personal. They run really slow on it. At the same time, other computers in my house ran blazingly fast. Switching to WPA2 fixed everything. The previously slow computers sped up by a factor of 10-30.

I ran a speed test here http://www.broadband-expert.co.uk/broadband/speedtest/ and it tells me I have a download speed of 2.06Mbs and an upload speed of 243 Kbps. My laptop a dell Inspiron 8600, is about 3-4 years old some and I have Windows and is running Windows 2000. Any or advice help would be greatly appreciated!
