Why Upload Speeds So Slow As Compared To Downloads
Jun 7, 2012
I just built a new computer with most of the bells and whistles. Asus P8Z77-V pro motherboard, Intel I7 3770K CPU, NVIDIA GTX 560TI, SSD for my boot drive, HDD for storage both running on SATA III, 16 GB of RAMMy problem is that when I connect to the internet via an ethernet cord, my download speeds are about 58 MBPS which is fine but upload speeds are only about .3 mbps. I have changed cables 3 times and connected directly to the modem rather than the router which would indicate an ISP issue. The kicker is that when I disable the LAN network and enable my wireless network, I get slower download speeds as expected but my upload speeds are closer to 5 MBPS, more than 10X times faster which throws my ISP theory out the window a bit.

I just got a new EA2700 and I notice that there is no way to get the same downloads speeds in wireless when compared to wired.Wired to my SHAW Cable modem I get 50 Mbps when I go wireless I get simply haalf of that. I spent almost 2 hours with the Linksys support on the phone and they said my router was bad.I do not buy that but it seems that something is not clear, or Linksys do a bogus advertisement saying that we can get 10x more speeds with this generation of routers or wireless technologies are just like that, cut your wired downloads speeds in half. Getting half download speeds in wireless connections versus full when wired?

I did a search and came across this board because I too am having the same issues with wireless connection. I went as far as buying a new router, which like the original post stated, worked well for a few and then stopped. It's frustrating because I need the wireless connection for many items I use at home.

We recently bought a home and just moved in. That being the case, we got a new ISP (Cincinnati Bell DSL). The service is advertised as "Up to 5Mbps."
My current equipment:
PC:
OS Name Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium
Version 6.1.7600 Build 7600
Other OS Description Not Available
[Code].....
So what can I do to achieve faster speeds? Am I limited by the hardware I have? My Dell is roughly 6 years old. Am I limited by Cincinnati Bell? Is it the location of the wireless router? Are there settings I can adjust to create a faster connection?

I upgraded my old router to a Linksys E1200 about 2 months ago. Like others with Comcast, I now have a lot slower internet speeds. I've updated everything, disabled WMM. I'm still getting slow speeds. My download speed is 3.12, which is not that bad for me. However, my upload is just below 1.

Our internet connection is connected to an ASA. The download speed is ok but the upload is very slow. we have been running some speed test from our LAN, and have been also trying to upload/download file.
Our ASA also have the IPS module. I turned this off but we've got the same result.
I send here attach the configuration file of the ASA.

Since we purchased our router in February, we've had intermittent problems with speed, and now it seems to be permanent. If we connect directly to the Comcast modem, everything is fine. If we connect to the router, directly or wirelessly, speeds drop to <3.

Download speeds, per speedtest.net and speakeasy, are about 20mbps.When the speed test gets to the upload part, it usually hangs or takes a long time before giving me a result of about 0.04mbps. Basically, it's so slow, it sometimes just gives up and times out.This translates into a real shoddy internet experience because something as simple as choosing airline tickets requires your computer to "upload" your choices. And of course, if that doesn't happen within a certain amount of time... Timeout! I have tested the connection without my Netgear FVS336G Dual WAN router in the way and it is much better so I'm certain it's the router.When I tell the router to use WAN 2, which is where my AT&T DSL connection is on, the upload works just fine (about .4 mbps - I'm provisioned at 512kbps so it's fine).Also, this is the case on ALL computers on the network - wired, wireless, PC, Mac, iPhone, iPad, you name it. So, it's definitely not device specific.

After recently intalling the WMP600N wireless adapter I have had great trouble getting it working properly.
Current performance
- signal: verygood/ excellent
- download speed: ~1mb
- upload speed: ~2mb
- signal speed: 18-54mbps (lots of variance but never above 54)
Comparison to my laptop
Laptop in same location with wireless G capability
- signal: verygood/ excellent
- download speed: ~20mb
- upload speed: ~2mb
- signal speed: 54mbps
my router is a D-Link wireless N router I recieved from my ISP. I do not believe my router is to blame for this problem since I have a laptop with an inferior wireless adapter recieving 20X the download speed.Drivers I have installed the latest drivers for windows 7 and I am running windows 7 Ultimate 64bit.

My Belkin F7D4301 Router has the fastest wireless speed of maybe 2MBps but wired with a cat5e cable to my asus laptop of almost 7MBps. I have a one smart TV, one blue ray, one roku, and a nexus 7 using the 2.4 channel.
My Wireless 2.4 settings are channel 11, Extension channel 7, Wireless mode N (have tried with just g and b, g, and n modes), Bandwidth 20/40, Protected mode on, QOS off.
I've talked to Belkin tech support, they are the ones who had me set up my 2.4 channel this way but my wireless speeds stay just under 2MBps, they just want to keep sending me the same model Router because they think each of the new ones they send me is defective.
Am I doing something wrong or is 2MBps the best wireless speed I'm going to get?

I have a RCA modem from comcast high speed internet.Also have a Linksys Cisco Wireless-N Gigabit Router model # WRT310N V2. When I connect the internet directly into the computer, I get download speed up to 21.07 mbps and upload speed of 3.07. When I connect through the router download speed 1.31mbps and upload speed of 1.01.I have no clue how to make changes to the router.

I have a synchronous 10 Mb connection to my isp which I have conneted to a CISCO asa 5510. I have done a lot of testing and there is a very noticable difference in my upload/dowload speeds.When I connect a laptop directly to the Cable from my ISP's equipment and have the NIC set to autosense, I get similair results for Download/Upload Speeds I have tested and get 9 plus down and 8 plus up.When I either connect the asa directly to this cable and set to either 100/Full or autosense OR I place a non-managed switch in between the asa and the ISP's equipment My upload speed drops dramataically. The Download speed stays about the same 8 Mb Plus but my upload falls off the face of the earth drops to about a 1Mb. I have noticed this many times when I am going from a cisco 800 series router to a Cisco ASA.This is severely limiting my ability to perform replication out from my locale.

I just upgrade my service with Comcast so I can now get up to 50Mbps, however the modem when directly connected to the PC can obtain these speeds, it does not when the PC is connected to the E4200 router. In fact the Cisco Connect speed test shows the upload speeds (10+ Mbps) to be faster than the download speed(4.82 Mbps). I upgraded the firmware to the latest level but it did not make a difference.

I used to get speeds that exceeded 2 mb/s and now when i download steam games it fluctuates from 0 kb/s to 2.1 mb/s in an oscillating pattern. What is wrong with my internet? games that should take less than an hour to install now take 3.

I ran a speed test with my new DIR-655 connected to my PS3 and my download is 768kbps and my upload is 1.5mbps. However, my internet connection is 50mbps and 2mbps upload on my computer connected via LAN. While I understand SOME decrease, that's slower than the previous Wireless G router that I had.
I've reset the router twice and it's currently set to the factory defaults. I've even tried setting a static ip address for the PS3 and put it into DMZ mode. However, I'm still getting the slow speeds.
Also, my iPhone 4 is getting about 14mbps download and 2mbps upload. Is that expected?

I have decent Bandwidth, high download speeds (25.67mbps) low ping(16ms) And okay upload speeds (4.47mbps). I usually browse Reddit and my father usually plays CoD. The problem is, whenever I try and download anything, his game slows down to where he gets kicked from the room.

On certain downloads, Wifi speed seems to be throttled to about 100kB/s. I see this mostly on two BlackBerry Z10s, but also just saw it on my Wifi-connected PC when trying to download the latest DIR-655 firmware. The Z10s are screaming fast on Wifi at my work. They also do fine on YouTube and any other high bandwidth applications (I just tried Speedtest and got 11Mb/s). I think I can say that the slow speed is only when I'm downloading apps or updates on the phones.
I just updated my DIR-655 to the latest FW and have spent an hour flicking settings trying to find something that makes a difference. No luck. As it stands now, I'm downloading the latest OS upgrade to BB10 (345MB) at 100kB/s.

I have one customer who is complaining about slow FTP sessions, and timeouts. Depending on the file size, it gets to about 98% down and hangs. The ASA has a CSC SSM-10 on it, and even bypassing FTP through it, the problem occurs. It is running 822-17-k8 OS. Turning the SSM off does not make any difference.

We have had a shift in our work force and find a large number of uses now working from home. Lately (this weekend) they have been complaining about VPN client downloads being very slow. I have tested the IPSec client and the SSL client and compared them to an Internet download on the network using the exact same laptop and the exact same web site www.speednet.net. Here at the office I see 50M, over both VPN's I see (if I am lucky) 1M, all reading within a 15 minute period and all over the same 600M pipe to the Internet
We have never noticed this before this work force shift to home. Eliminating all other factors, which we think we have, would you expect VPN clients to behave this way?
MTU is set at default from day one. The only thing we have done to VPN configuration over the last week was to add a tunnel gateway to the ASA 5540 VPN configuration which is only a hop away from the firewall inside interface.
I will provide configuration data if you request but my question is just a general one at this point. Is this normal and can you make a suggestion as to how we can improve? We are research, running wireshark on the test laptop so as the day progresses we will have more information to provide if needed.

I recently switched to cable with Comcast. I am getting 20+Mbps wired, but I only get 1 Mbps w/wireless download. I am getting 4+ upload via wireless. Is my set up wrong? I reset my modem and Internet worked fine without any other changes. I am planning on buying a modem (instead of leasing) should I buy a gateway? I didn't think this router was out dated yet.

i have a 4Mbps DSL internet connection with 3 PCs connected through a router. 2 are connected wirelessly and the other is wired via an ethernet cable. i noticed that when downloading a file from an international server, the transfer rate on the wireless PCs is 2-3 times slower than on the wired PC. the wireless PC would get about 150-200kb/s, whereas the wired PC can max out to 450kb/s on a single download. however when i download from a local or nearby server instead, the transfer rate on the wireless and wired PCs are the same and can both reach up to 450kb/s per download. i don't understand why the wireless connection is slower to international servers compared to the wired PC.my wireless signal is at 54Mbps with "excellent" strength. i also tested the ping results from both the wireless and wired PCs to international servers and they are pretty much the same.
- all PCs are running windows XP SP3
- the modem/router is a D-Link 2640B

I have a Cisco 871w that has been a very great product for many years. I recently switched to Windows 7 x64 on my main machine and now i am having all sorts of issues with it.. I have done a bit of research and found that it appears that it might be the firewall on the SDM that is causing the slowness issues. what does happen is that downloads from known good sites will run really slow. If i hook up my Macbook Pro or my Windows XP laptop i have no issues at all. i have tried Disabling IPv6 as well as SMB2.0 and this has not resulted in a fix at this point.

This is the first PC I have ever built, but I built it with a buddy who is very experienced and everything went okay. The computer is maybe 3-4 weeks old now, everything is running fine, until today when I decided I wanted to try streaming some Diablo 3.This is when I discovered my upload speed was absolute garbage.I have verizon FIOS - I pay for 15/5, the download speed is always at 20+ mbps, I have never had any problems with it., but my upload speed is fluctuating between .34-1.5 mbps, changing every second.I know this is a problem with the computer because I brought in my old laptop, unplugged the ethernet from my new desktop, plugged it into the laptop in order to keep all variables the same, and it was getting 25/5 without any hesitation.When I was downloading the drivers for my mobo I installed something called Windows Firewall with Advanced Security(maybe that was with a windows update, im not sure).
Specs of my PC (if this matters)
-Asus P8Z77-V LK
-8g ddr3 Ripjaws
-i7 2700k
-Corsair H60
-EVGA GTX 670
-Crucial 128g M4 SSD
-Caviar Blue 1TB HDD
-750W OCZ Modular PSU
