Morning guys, I need to pick your brains if thats ok?
I fear I may be having some sort of hardware issue so here goes...........
My virgin media connection has been a rock solid 60mb on my iMac but all of a suuden when i did a speed test, my speed hit 60 and then decreased rapidly to around 23 mb and that was with a wired connection, My windows laptop was still hitting 60 with wired though.
I then had to move my iMac upstairs into the attic office and the wifi connection was dropping out all the time as the network was saying that I had a self assigned IP and could not connect to the internet.
I sort of resolved this by resetting my virgin hub and my netgear router but now when I do a speed test I am only getting 5mb on wireless but my iPhone is getting around 20mb.
Do you think my network card/adapter in my iMac is playing up and whet are the rough costs in getting it repaired/replaced?
Thanks in advance
