Stupid Vista! Thanks for the tip, I've run into this issue on 2 separate computers and this appears to fix the problem. I've got a Broadcom 802.11g network adapter.

This worked on a USB wireless card that was preforming poorly. My download speed jumped from 130Kb/s to 360Kb/s. Thank you!

hey thanks, this really did work for me. i have 5Mb/s internet yet my network is really old so i usually get around 300kb/s on my XP. i just got a vista laptop and the loading speeds were fine but the download speed was 25-45 kb/s.
this worked, now i can finally stream videos again.

WOW...this fix really works ! Thank you very much as I spent 3 hours trying every other recommendation on the web. Just delete your network adapter including driver in device manaager, then use search icon to find the adapter and locate a replacement driver. My download speed went from 250 kbps to 8800 kbps !
