Just had the Tech out here and we looked at the orbi logs and its getting DDOS attacks every time i connect that computer and thats whats slowing down the network. but im not sure how or why its happening. super stumped. all i did was put an SSD in, restore the laptop, installed dropbox, itunes, icloud and some other stuff for my wife to do her college work with. i havent even browsed the web other than speedtest.net i did however remove the mcaffee that comes on it..
