HP Envy 23 Touchsmart SE d494: do not get the internet speed I think I'm supposed to

I just upgraded my ISP service and should get up to 250 MB/s download, but get only around 95 Mbps, which is the same that I was getting before.  Looking at the specifications of my computer, it seems that I should have no problem getting the 250 Mbit/s speed.  Am I missing something or is there something I need to do?  Thank you.

It turns out that the Cat 5 cable I was using was not allowing higher speeds, as I tried to replace it with another cable, I had and immediately got the faster speeds.  Now, I'm getting around 230 Mbps download.  Cool!

  • Could not get the internet/wireless connection after you installed new hard drive?

    I have a HP Pavilion Entertainment PC (dv6736nr), Windows Vista laptop.  The hard drive crashed and I got a new installed.   I set up my wireless connection, even that is on the other 4 computers in this building (my desktop computer running win7 netbook win7 running 2 computers of the landlord, winVista running - they have comcast modem,? a good router) when I set up the wireless connection, it connects only 'local', no internet.  I researched this some, tried all the places with a parameter that can be a problem, but nothing helped.  What the hell did I miss?  The connection is good because it works on my desk, on which I write, as I said. To my knowledge, the hard disk the the wireless are not connected; or is it? Any help, the concrete steps that I take on my laptop, the settings themselves, would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello:

    If your laptop computer is the Atheros wireless card, you probably just update the driver.

    The symptoms you listed seem to indicate that is the problem.

    Hi Cathie7372, according to Norton the latest version of the toolbar is compatible with firefox 36 is 2014.7.10.26 - your watch as 2014.7.10. 16...

  • I have Firefox 8.0.1 and since the update to it, some sites, I need to go so that Firefox will not accept certificates which is accepted in the previous version. I can not get the permanent exception and must uncheck permanent and do every time.

    I have Firefox 8.0.1 and since the update to it, some sites, I need to go so that Firefox will not accept certificates which is accepted in the previous version. I can not get the permanent exception and must uncheck permanent

    You can use this button to go to the Firefox profile folder:

    • Help > troubleshooting information > profile directory: opens showing the file

    It is not usually necessary to create an exception for the certificates.

    Possible causes are that a server does not send the full (intermediate) certificate chain or self signed certificates.

  • I can connect to the local network, but not to the internet

    Why in an internet connection, I can connect to the Local network, but not to the Internet.
    I have valid IP address and configuration is good.

    I recommend you read some threads here in the forum about similar issues.
    If this problem occurs using the WiFi network, then check if you can use the connection to the local network.
    Using the WiFi network, you must check if the common WLan parameters are favourable;
    Check if the encryption key is right; turn off filtering by mac address, check the TCP/IP protocol settings if it has been set to automatic, disable the firewall settings, rest you WLan router, check if you connected to the right SSID.

    Good bye

    Hi everyone, this is my first post, also help on the post would be appreciated.

    I bought ipad air 1 after that 2013 but can not get the pages for free. Numbers and imovie I can. IOS9 running at the moment. I have pages when I connect on icloud on my pc. Can I transfer iPad app, because it is not in the ILO purchased in itunes.

    Thanks in advance

    The only way to install an ipad app is through the app store.  PC or Mac software does not run on the ipad.  Search in the contacts link at the bottom right of this page.  Give apple a call.

    I guess is the icon for pages in icloud for storing documents pages.  At the same time, apple had a cloud based pages.  Not sure what happened to her.

  • Satellite P200 - 1 K 8 - could not get the display and audio drivers to work

    Hello.
    I'm getting desperate. I tried everything I could imagine.

    First of all - do not get the control center catalyst to work, I don't have the graphics driver installed now (I tried both - Toshiba and Mobility Modder modified driver ATi - none works.)
    Second - when I install the audio driver Realtek audio Manager is encoutering the problem and needs to close every time at startup. And Yes, I updated the BIOS to version 5.20 installed XPSP3, chipset driver installed (the most recent Intel homepage or one of Toshiba, anyone, always the same question).

    Help, please. I don't want to spend the rest of my life trying to get XP on my laptop.
    Thanks in advance.

    Can you please send the number of full model of your laptop?

  • Satellite A110-277: can not access the internet wireless

    Hello
    I have a Toshiba Satellite A110-277. We have wireless internet access in our House and it was workin fine, but since a few days I can not access the internet. My laptop is certainly recognizing internet connection wireless, but through IE or Firefox it just does not connect.

    For some reason, he worked briefly through Firefox, but then that stopped. I don't see what anyone, I have done differently, other than (finally) updated Windows Media Player, but why would that cause problems, I don't know!

    I would really appreciate help as soon as POSSIBLE, that the internet is my lifeline to work!
    Thank you

    Hmm, I guess that you can connect to the WLan router and can insert the WiFi encryption key successfully right I'm right?

    How does LAN connection? Can connect you to the internet using the LAN cable?
