I recently installed a Verizon FiOS network in my house, and everything works great with three of my four computers. The typical speeds I'm getting are 15,000kbps down and 3,000kbps upload. However, I have one computer which seems to be getting the download speed, but the upload speed on multiple speed test sites average 6kbps.
I've looked around, and I think this has something to do with packet loss, but I have no idea how to fix it. I'm almost positive the problem has to do with network or firewall settings on the problem computer, because all of the other computers are working fine both wirelessly and plugged in. Right now, that computer is only running Windows firewall (I did disable it, with no effect) and I did scan for viruses/trojans and spyware...the tests came up clean.
Any ideas on how to solve this?

What connection type is Verizon's FiOS service? ADSL is slow in upload by nature. Fast download yes, slow up.

This sounds like a hardware issue. You could try a different NIC.
