I'm totally new to this, so I confess I'm pretty ignorant about it. I live in Australia and have just set up new ADSL through iinet. For the first few days the download speed was pretty quick, since then it has dropped considerably, as in down to 100-200b/s. Despite this the upload speed has stayed consistent.
Is there something wrong with my modem/router or does it sound like I have mucked something up since the set up? I am using a mac and our modem is net gear.
