Ok, at home, I've a network with 5 users. We share an ADSL internet connection (512k/s). The modem is set as a router and is connected to our hub where all the other PCs are connected as well.
We all download a lot and in most PCs the connection is more or less the same (around 20-40k/s). However, in one of the computer, the connection is 2-3 times faster than the others. When downloading mp3, my friend can get like 100 - 200 k/s !! Even when all the other PCs are switched off, I never get over 50k/s.
So, what I want to know is why is this PC's internet connection so much faster than all the rest??
