My usb connection is faster then my ethernet

Post by jerkyjames »

For some reason my usb connection downloads at 1.5Mb to 2Mb, but when I use my ethernet cable its around 300k to 700k download. I tried 6 different ethernet cables including the cat6 cable I bought today. I've also tried a new ethernet pci card to replace the onboard ethernet port and it didnt change anything. I also had my internet provider try a different cable modem and i get the same result. I cant find anything on the internet about this problem.
I have tried everthing I know and Im at a major loss. Please help.

This is what I get when I try tracert.

Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
(C) Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.

C:\Documents and Settings\James>tracert http://www.speedguide.com
'tracert' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

C:\Documents and Settings\James>




When I just type "tracert speedguide.com" on the run line it works, but the window closes before I can copy the results.

Note that your speedtests with ethernet cable show higher ping times than those with USB cable.

Do 2 NDTs (one with USB and the other with ethernet) at this site and post the pop-up reports under the 'Statistics' button:

These 2 entries should not be in your running process. The first leads to a website that my browser sounded a high security warning:

Try deleting them with Hijackthis.

The theoretical network limit is 0.29 Mbps
The NDT server has a 50.0 KByte buffer which limits the throughput to 4.77 Mbps
Your PC/Workstation has a 125.0 KByte buffer which limits the throughput to 5.92 Mbps
The network based flow control limits the throughput to 0.40 Mbps

I removed the 2 lines you suggested by using hijackthis and it didnt change the speed problem. Im sure they needed to be removed anyway.

The ethernet connection shows normal round trip time, but excessive packet losses and presence of 'other network traffic'.

The USB connection shows high round trip time but min. packet losses.

My guess is that the presence of 2 kinds of connections (eg. 2 Nic) at the same time in your comp may be causing signals to alternate between them, and having preference on the USB.

When I unplug one cable to attach the other, my OS(WinXp) automatically disables the other connection. It Loads the drivers it needs, that I provided.
Im not sure how my OS would get the connection confused. It knows when
the usb or ethernet cable is plugged in and automatically uses either 10Mbs
or 100Mbs. Right now I,m back on cable modem going straight to my usb port and my OS disabled the pci connection via ethernet to the cable modem.

Could my ISP, be bogged down when I try to use the faster connection?

That is my point. When a connection is disabled completely, you cannot simply replug into it. If you can just replug the cable to either ethernet or USB, that would mean they are not disabled, just disconnected. Both connections would be active and waiting. Perhaps this is the reason why you cannot carry out a tracert.

Try calling out the DOS box and check IP properties with the command

ipconfig /all

The window disapears in like one second, after I enter the command. The same thing happens when I do the trace, but only after it completes the trace
first. Im not sure what that problem is. Might be a setting in my registry doing that to me.

Try uninstalling the drivers of your USB connection and clean the registry and reboot comp. See if problem in running DOS still exist.
