I have an Asus u56e laptop running dual boot setup, Windows 7 and 12.04. I had Windows 7 first.

Does the Ubuntu Live CD help make this…

My modem detects the line rate as 8mbps, but in reality when I use speedtest.net I'm only downloading 7mbps max.
Is there a way I can configure my modem to get this extra 1mbps down?
Thanks.
