oh ok, well thanks for all the information. I guess if i want faster then 30KB/s or so Ill just upgrade to a different package. Thanks agian.

oh ok, so theres no way I can make my connection give me full strength then ?

DSL is my connection as i stated in the first post and yes my pc is clean, also tried those TCP Optimizers and CableNut. With no seen improvement in speed. Also I believe my advertised speed is something like 256/146.

I'm running Centurytel DSL/Netopia modem(they suppiled). Windows XP Home(SP2) Your connection is: 264 Kbps or 0.26 Mbps You Downloaded at: 32 kB/s You are running: 5 times faster than 56K and can Download 1 megabyte in 32 second(s) Member Ident: CompID:1899372010647 Test Time:: 2006/08/12 - 9:37am Test Browser and OS info: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; Maxthon) Test ID: 00TKY3869 (if this is a screenshot go to testmy.net to see if this is fake) Diagnosis ^info^: May need help : running at only 16.8 % of your hosts average (centurytel.net) This was tested from a 1075 kB file and took 33.344 seconds to complete My problem is, I have a slow download rate. I was somewhere around 11 to 12kB/s. I power cycled the pc and the modem, spy swept it and all that good stuff and it pushed me up too around 30/32 kB/s. So is there anyway I can tweak my connection some more, too way more of a faster speed ?
