Since all PC's exhibit this intermittent problem, either the router, or
cable modem / cable is the problem
Unless of course you are being throttled down to downloading too much

can anyone tell me what sort of software/hardware can cause slow
internet speed .I am supposed to get upto 20mbs but intermitently i am
only getting 1-5mb virgin media are blaming everything from norton to my
computer set up .I have used norton for 2 years on the same laptop.The
fact that the problem is only intermitent leads me to think the fault is
at there end especialy since the other 2 pc's in the house are having
the same problems.We all share the same router (belkin n1 vision)and is
set up ok , i have spoke to belkin and they have gone through the
settings ,same with norton ,so any help will be appreciated

Have you tried connecting directly to your cable/DSL modem and not using
the router to make sure it isn't the router? Have you unplugged both the
modem and the router to reset it and see if that improves speed?

Have you run your anti virus and anti malware apps to make sure you're
not part of a herd bot?
