    Hey mate,

    I've been having internet ping & page loading issues (unstable connection)since a few months now..
    so I've been calling my ISP guy for this issues, and finally today he arrived to check what was wrong :)

    he checked the ping from my PC to modem, it is 6ms ! But according to him it should be <1ms !!
    and because of this, he came to the conclusion that my PC's NIC has issue ! o_O

    I didn't believe him, So he took his laptop and connected the cable from the modem to its nic port
    and he pinged and it was <1ms ! :(

    so he told me to reinstall network drivers, and I did so, but still I have 6ms local ping and the main issue still present :weep:
    so he tells me to buy a new pci nic !
    but I dont believe this guy...

    Do you think that my PC's NIC is busted ? is there any way to check whether my NIC is working properly ?


    PS : my mobo is DG41RQ and it has onboard Gigabit NIC(Realtek)

    test another nic, reset the modem to factory mode if the problem still exists then the line have a problem if you consider it unstable

    I already had Gigabit on my mobo which I assume is broken now :(
    also I don't have that kind of money right now so I'll have to do it with Fast-E (100MBps) :31:

    The problem persists even after installing new PCI Fast NIC card :weep:

    even on hiren's boot cd, it shows 10ms ping from pc to the wifi router

    No No Guruji, I feel its the mobo issue. Must have happened because of the power surges
