Network/ISP problem

Hi - I have a problem with my isp. They are saying that my very very poor speeds are due to the fact that a tremendous amount of upload activity is coming from my imac. I am running osx version 10.6.7. I have checked my router stats which show nothing unusual, i have just run Terminal netstat -n and have five printout pages of info which might as well be double dutch. Would anyone be willing to see if there is anything unusual in my network activity if I post the stats here.

Thanks so much

Ann

 

Thanks for that. I just need some advice regarding netstat results - they mean nothing to me and I need to refute (or not) that the reason for my very low internet speeds is because of the amount of upload data from my Mac. I only send a couple of e-mails a day and upload nothing else. I am worried that my Mac has malware etc. As I said, I closed all aps and ran netstat -n and had 5 pages of active internet connections, just need some help deciphering. If no one here can help, could you recommend a forum that could ?

 

Hi - I have istat pro and from that it seems nothing much is going on. It is the following that makes me nervous:
I need to post in two lots as there are to many characters.

Hi - there are no other computers on my network at the moment, I have also disconnected my wifi printer, my nintendo wii and my mobile phone, so the only thing connected to the network at the time the stats were run was my ethernet connected Mac. If I look at my router's DHCP client list, there is just the Mac shown, nothing connecting wirelessly, no trace of anything piggybacking the network. That is what is worrying me.

Thanks for all your help.

Ann

 

Sorry - can't do that - I have a combined modem router, all one and the same.
