So, my connection has been dropping, getting faster, lagging, and doing anything to annoy the crap out of me. This happens on both browsers. I tried something called namebench, used the new ips given but that didn't help at all.
If anyone can help me at all, I would be grateful! I tried pram resets too, that didnt help either.

Video: Please watch the whole video, thanks!!

I would agree with modem/router issues.

Who is your ISP, what type/model of router you have?

You could also try trashing Mac HD/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration if you are on 10.5 or above then reboot. That resets all network settings/prefs to defaults on your Mac and willhelp you to rule it out.

I have comcast cable 12mbps package (but get 25mps ethernet and 16mbps wireless) on a good day, and my router is a netgear wgt624 super g 108mbps router.

Unplug your modem & router from power. Then power your modem back on. Then your router.
