Hi I have recently upgraded to 20mb broadband but havent noticed any difference. I have ran several speed tests today and with avast turned on my download is consistently 8-10mb but with avast turned off I get the full 20mb. I obviously dont want to remove avast as I think it is a great programme but if it is affecting my speed like this I may have to. Was wondering what else I can do settings wise or the likes?
Cheers.
It is possible that the webshield is fooling the speed test…happend to me with malwarebytes protection module
so download a big file like xp service pack and take the time
then turn off shields and download again…how big is the time difference?
