ever since I got my new pc (DXDIAG) my internet speed has decreasted by A LOT.
on my old pc, I usually got around ~200KB/s (max of 256KB/s)
now I am getting less then 100KB/s (usually around 60) on EVERYTHING!
we called custom-support, twice. no fix.
on the second call, the dude said "it is probably RAM issues"...
my friends tried to help me, but still not successful.

tried:
ping my router (result: 0ms, perfect)
"illegally" downloaded "speed up your internet!!" software (I knew it wasn't gunna work, but for 3mb, why not try? :P)
speedtest.net (to california/closest server to me/europe) (60-ish KB/s on all)
my ISP's speedtest site, to the closest city (50~ miles)(±66 KB/s)
reset my router MANY TIMES.
tinkered with some settings.
tech support
a new ethernet cable
re-installed the "dsl cd" (full of crap "security" software. but was worth a try)
maybe a couple other things, can't remember.

old pc: 0|-------------------me(~200)----|256
new pc: 0|--------ME(~60)---[]-------------------|256
[]=a wall that has majically appeared in my "internet spped" that blocks me from going over 100.

so I am welcome to any ideas/tests you may think of that could help me out.

ps: sorry if that was a pain to read. I need a script that auto-capitalizes after the 1st letter after a ". " (persiod{space}) :P

Shorter than Slanter's version:
Code:
~.::
Loop {
   Input, k, L1 V
   If k is alpha
   {
      StringUpper, ku, k
      Send, {BS}%ku%
      Return
   }
}

Only problem with that one is that it capitalizes the first letter you put in, no matter where/when it's entered :P

This edit seems a bit more reliable
Code:
~.::
Input, k, L2 V
If RegExMatch(k,"\s[a-z]")
{
   StringUpper, ku, k
   Send, {BS 2}%ku%
   Return
}


I've never really used the input command before :D
