Thanks for the responses. You're right, I don't have enough info yet, mainly because of the time factor, but also because I had help getting it all set up. Once I get the schematic from him, I'll report back.
The woman who uses the new wireless router hardly uses her computer at all. No large downloads, etc. And because that new router is a half-mile away, I'm wondering if it being on DHCP would matter. Still, what I plan on doing is unplugging hers just to test my speeds. I'll also check speeds throughout each day for the next few days. It does seem odd that it would drop that much tho, from 6m to 1.5 megs.
I'll report back.
