Yeah that sucks. I can download from newsgroups before like at 1.5mbps so now even faster. Just rebooted modem. Just 2.3mbps though at the moment. Damn settings are all set for 3mbps or so.

Well poopie anyone got any good tweaks settings for 6mbps/2mbps ???

Thanks,
Will

Everything looking good at dsl reports.

Well I did change to Receive Window (RWIN): 65535.

But speed is still stuck though.

Your download speed : 2423598 bps, or 2366 kbps.
A 295.8 KB/sec transfer rate.
Your upload speed : 223588 bps, or 218 kbps

I was just chatting via rr.com and they said yes its regional so you need to call your local rr phone number. Here its 25-cable. As if that helps u any. :P

largeknob 21st Sep 04 09:46 PM

Ahhhh,,,ok then. Just got off the phone with them again. Check your PM's - something you may want to check.

Well I asked like 5 times so it better be 6/2 cause thats what they said. I talked to 4 different people.

Still ok if its 512kbps but that kinda sucks. :( Hope not. Seems to be atm. 62kbps upload. Which yea is 512kbps. :( But pretty sure because I got it capped at around 40 with tweaks or whatever.

Was hopping cablenut and settings for 6mbps plus but 3.5 is the highest. Well besides 10mb/10mb. lol But about to see what it does. :)

But anyways you guys know of any software to limit connection speeds? Both download and upload. Seeing as I am sharing with my brtother. And having to pay the extra $20 a month for the upgrade so no way in hell is he getting my extra bandwidth.

largeknob 21st Sep 04 11:13 PM

OK, bit the bullet and went ahead and did the upgrade to the 6 MB. Took about 5 minutes for them to reset the modem and do the programming. Works great! Thanks War for the information and the post. Heck, I didn't even know they had a higher speed over 3 MB in the residential class till i read your post. :)
