Vista - Suggestions to improve throughput ?

09-11-2007

Hi, I am new to Vista and recently have had download speed issues and
connection issues. Mysteriously, they just went away. I have ordered a brand
new, well rated cable modem (D-Link D202) and have just got off the phone
with Roadrunner. They say my current modem is fine and the line speed is ok
now (??). I bought the new modem just as future proofing insurance, so to
speak.
Anyway, any suggestions to maintain and improve download speeds in
Vista ? Thanks.
