Ok, I know back on what was in Windows ME or 98 You could divert network priority. Heres the deal. I have Time Warner, and in my area it is very poor cable service. ( They say we get 100 mb/s, in all actuality we get 10 mb/s if no1 is on in the area. ) Every time I try to play a game when my dad is browsing porn, it lags me to Hell and back. I'm running windows 7 and have the router / modem directly connected to mine ( making my computer the main in network ? ) if that means anything to anyone. Any way to give my computer more of the network ... i dont care if it takes him 2 hours to load a video... seriously sits there for hours.
Look for QoS settings on your router. If it doesn't have any, then you're SOL unless you purchase a new one.
