The first question to start with is ...

Is your wireless connection secured with a passport? If not then anyone can use your router to have internet.

If this is the case, try setting up a password and you will see the difference.

If not, check the other users around you ... they might be using some Torrent download clients that are slowing down your connection speed.

The firewall on the router won't slow the connection, but it might block some online games, download clients from downloading materials efficiently.

Hopefully your IE setting are not using a proxy to connect, if there is just remove it.

Good Luck ...

My friend there could be alot of reasons for such an issue:

**do these steps:

1- check through laptop of one of your friends from same wireless network..

***if problem is the same, then:

--check with Qtel that they dont have common problem for the speed of that area ( u can check with neighbors to)

--try to reset and reinstall the wireless, turn it off then on..and so on..put password for it

***If problem doesnt exist with the other laptop, then:

--most probabley u been to harmfull website/program/whatever which damaged your computer and u need to have very strong antivirus and antispyware and prefered to format ur laptop..

--lower extent that somebody is logging to your router and keep downloading movies and stuff which will take good share from the speed... so to be in safe change the router (wireless) password

Hope you find this usefull

Download CCleaner software and run it. It will delete all your temporary files and they check the speed. Just google to find the download link

Best solution is to simply delete the connection, reboot and reinstall. It could be 1 of about 10000000 reasons.

Check whether you are using any proxy or not....if yes then remove it. You can even test with some other laptop your wireless connection.
