Page 1 of Broadband speed help required

I have recently started using a BT Router Modem ( Voyager 2100 ) hard wired to my PC I also have a Laptop connected via wireless to same router.

Why is my 2mb connection only coming in at 1mb now, if I swap back to the Speedtouch usb modem I used to use it jumps back to 2mb. It`s not due to using the laptop at the same time as when I ran a couple of speed tests with the laptop switched off it would still only get to about 1mb speeds.

I am wondering if having to log in through the BT Voyager page when I first setup the router means that the routers is `routed` through that portal every time and this is slowing it down.

Anyone able to shed some light on this problem as I would rather get back to the speed I was used to and paying for.

Thanks,

Mike.
