Internet Speed

Hello, I connect to the internet with the Virgin Media's Super Hub at 60Mb and I have tested the speed with the Speedtest.net and it is correct. And I connect to the other computer with Ethernet Plugs(Wired network connection), but the speed on that computer is only 20Mb. I have run the virus check and it is all clear.

Please advise why is that so and how do I rectify it.

Thank you.

Narendra

What speed is the network card in the other computer. It might be a "Fast Ethernet ???" which supports up to 100Mb/s. That is only a theoretical limit so actual speed is often around 20-30Mb/s
