hi...i'm a new user of vista,just started to use it today...i found out that the line connection is not so stable in vista..i'm using lan cable with my router,not wireless...when i try to install the live messenger,it kept telling me to try again later and also the http download speed is very low if compared with what can i do in xp..so izit is there anything or option to fix to utilize my connection speed,i'm really fed up with the low download speed in vista..i'm not paying 66 bucks for 1 or 2 mbps...

I have no problem with my connection. Try update your lan driver to the latest?

try to update ur lan driver... Having this problem too.... I install lan driver (for xp) then got this problem...
After I update lan driver (for vista), no problem already...

but i just plug my lan cable into my laptop then i can online edi de woh...i no need to install driver de oh so how to update??haha....

the problem u cant update many things in vista is probably due to ur windows firewall get turned on. try turn it off.

Just update my laptop lan driver (vista driver), so far no problem...

You buy graphic card the cd also not the latest driver la. Lol.
You can try to update see how it goes.

i check aleady...the driver is the latest oh...so,anything else that interrupted my connection speed??

Virus maybe? Or maybe only you have slow connection when signing into msn? Tried to do any downloads to check the speed?

no problem for me ..using win vista ultimate here

but i just bought it yesterday woh...so fast virus meh~~i tried to download a song,the speed maintain 4 to 5 kbps...really Zzz...haiz...

Live Messenger download is up & down quite frequent. I was suffering from the same early this month. Try rebooting the PC and modem and secure a different IP and you may be in luck.

Which IP you usually get for your connection?

how to check it..haha..not so used to vista yet

Broadband or what? USB or?

i'm using broadband,the stupid streamyx then my ip that i get is 124.13.208.213...dont know what had happen...haiz

Usually bad ip will give bad connection. Like me got 60. host dota will lag after some time. Keep restart your modem till get good ip.
