My network is so slow after I re-hooked up my computer

    my harddrive was corrupted for a while so I just left my computer disconnected for about a month.
    I started using an older harddrive instead after that but for some reason, since ive set it up again, I cant watch any live streams without having pauses every few seconds (even on low quality).

    My corrupted harddrive was an SSD whereas the one im using now is a HDD.

    Could this be the problem? please help!

    Very hard to judge from what you say.. But you're starting point would be to go to somewhere like speedtest.net and see what speed your internet connection is running at?

    Did you do a fresh OS install on the older hd?
