Go to solution Solved by Guest,

The situation seems to have solved itself after a Windows Update. Must have been some kind of glitch with my hardware and Windows, but it seems to be taken care of as of this moment. Kinda wished I didn't have to deal with it for a week but oh well, at least it's solved. Thanks to everyone who responded.

Sorry for the title, wasn't sure exactly how to explain what's been going on. Each time I start my computer from scratch, I'm in my user account within about 7 seconds thanks to my pricey SSD. All my programs also load extremely quick. The problem is my Internet doesn't seem to be operating as quickly - it takes anywhere from three to six minutes for my Internet to actually run at full speed. I monitor it using ASUS TurboLAN and immediately after logon I'm only sending bytes of data. Not kilo or mega but simply bytes. Pages usually refuse to load and if they do they are incomplete and inaccessible. Then after a few minutes it rockets to full speed. Some info about my network should it be relevant. If more is needed please don't hesitate to ask.

 

Speed promised by ISP: 105 Mb/s (DOWN) / 50 Mb/s (UP)

Provider: Comcast

Type: Cable

Connection: Ethernet (Cat6)

 

Wireless is seemingly unaffected as all tablets and phones in the house can connect at anytime without issue. The only hardware change I've done is swapped out my motherboard, but I've uninstalled my old drivers and installed the newer ones including the Intel one for my NIC (after the switch is when I noticed the change). And there hasn't been any change in software. I've used this board in the past without issue so I'm confused as to why it suddenly doesn't like me.

 

Anyone have any idea would could be causing this? It's very frustrating having to wait on my Internet to wake itself up.

bad cable, bad driver, bad connector

The cable has been plugged into my laptop and operates flawlessly on boot up. The driver is straight from ASUS and is up to date; I've also reinstalled it just to be sure. I hadn't considered the connector itself, so I suppose if that's the problem I guess I gotta deal with it. Thanks for the quick reply.

I would try a usb dongle first, but a pci 10/100/100 card isn't to pricey
