What is the connection speed that appears on my taskbar?
• You may see a speed of 100 Mbps show up on your task bar (lower left corner of your computer screen). Typically 100 Mbps is what you will see, but this speed can vary from 10 Mbps to 1000 Mbps, depending on your computer and the equipment it is connected to. • Do not confuse this speed with your Internet Providers speed. This speed only signifies the capability of your Network Interface Card (NIC/Ethernet Card) in your machine and the next piece of equipment it is connected to, such as the DSL modem or wireless router.
