[QUOTE="kitjv, post: 1208191, member: 34201"] Thanks, guys, for the responses. Following your suggestions, here is where I'm at. First, let me clarify what I meant by slower download speeds. I am referring to the time it will take a web page to load. With a direct ethernet connection from the modem to my Mac, load time is 1 -2 seconds. On the wireless network, load time is 15 - 20 seconds. With that said, here the the results of following your suggestions. I rebooted the AE after about 25 minutes. No effect on speed at all. I currently have AE firmware version 6.3 which (according to Apple's download site) is the latest. [U]Running the speed test, results were as follows[/U]: Download speed: 7.94 Mbps Upload speed: 1.00 Mbps (for both Mac wirelessly). Download speed: 7.93 Mbps Uploead speed: 0.74 Mbps (for both Macs via ethernet connection to modem). I am paying for 8Mbps from my ISP. Does any of the above trigger any further ideas? Thanks again.
