[Ldsoss] Query re Program to Determine Speed/Bandwidth

[Timothy-Allen Albertson]

tnx   im not computer dumb    i always installed my DSL and
Cable connections so i get that far   but there is always
plenty more i can learn

while it isnt set up for wireless yet i have an actiontec
modem/wireless router which im now have connected
to is one LAN cable port   although i dont have a wireless
card i have a USB wireless adapter im wondering if maybe
it would make a difference if i tried to used the wireless
router which would eliminate any line noise issue from
the modem to my LAN card

can RAM or processor speed make a difference in my
download bandwidth?
