I installed Windows 8 in my computer and since then, ,my internet has been very slow and if I use my xbox, I lag all over the place. I read online that this is happening to a lot of people. Please help if you know how to fix it.

I bought Windows 8 and I have updated it all the way. I'll check again though.

What part of rochester? I reside in the Chili area. Also i HIGHLY suggest calling time warner and requesting a tech guy to come down.



But before you do that i have a couple more questions.

Is the router hooked up to the PC your on now?
Have you tried un plugging your router + modem for 1min and then tried it?

I live in Ontario and I will try unplugging it after doing a virus check. If that doesn't work then I am going back to Windows 7.
