Title:
  slow internet download on ubuntu 8.10

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: yelp

  Hi,
  I installed ubuntu 8.10 on my intel computer e-7050/610i  GeoGorce 7050 NForce 610i motherboard.
  Everything is working great except for the internet download speed

  I have ran speed tests from various sites and here's what I get (http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/)
  Download Speed: 725 kbps (90.6 KB/sec transfer rate)
  Upload Speed: 2088 kbps (261 KB/sec transfer rate)

  Download speed is painfully slow, but upload speeds are consistently
  fine.

  I have read several forum articles and did what they have asked:
  1. Setting the mtu to 1500
  2. Disabling ipv6 ( by modifying /etc/modprobe.d/aliases) and also putting this line "alias net-pf-10 off" in the bad_list file.

  Here is some more information that may help:

  ======================================================

  I am using a Belkin 4 port router. Also my laptop computer running
  ubuntu 6.0 works great with speeds of upto 2.0 mbps download and
  upload.

  I am pretty sure something is setup incorrectly on my desktop, it is
  either a bug or a setup problem but can't seem to fix it. Please
  help!!!
