Hi guys, I have a large prob with my internet DL speed. I should be getting 2.5 or higher
but I get this :
   
1480 Kbps about 1.48 Mbps

here is my TCP/IP analyzer info from speedguide:

TCP properties for IP = **.***.***.**
Browser/OS = Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; byond_3.5; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; yplus 5.1.03b)


TCP options string = 020405ac01010402

MTU = 1492
MTU is optimized for PPoE DSL broadband. If not, consider raising MTU to 1500 for optimal throughput.

MSS = 1452
MSS is optimized for PPPoE DSL broadband. If not, consider raising your MTU value.

Default TCP Receive Window (RWIN) = 63888
RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 0 bits
Unscaled TCP Receive Window = 63888

RWIN is a multiple of MSS
Other RWIN values that might work well with your current MTU/MSS:
511104 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of
255552 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 4)
127776 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 2)
63888 (MSS x 44) <-- current value

bandwidth * delay product (Note this is not a speed test):

Your TCP Window limits you to: 2555.52 kbps (319.44 KBytes/s) @ 200ms
Your TCP Window limits you to: 1022.208 kbps (127.776 KBytes/s) @ 500ms

MTU Discovery (RFC1191) = ON

Time to live left = 53 hops
TTL value is ok.

Timestamps (RFC1323) = OFF
Selective Acknowledgements (RFC2018) = ON

IP type of service field (RFC1349) = 11100000 (224)
Precedence (priority) = 111 (Network Control)
Delay = 0 (normal delay)
Throughput = 0 (normal throughput)
Reliability = 0 (normal reliability)
Cost = 0 (normal cost)
Check bit = 0 (correct, 8th checking bit must be zero)

DiffServ (RFC 2474) = CS7 111000 (56) - class 7 (RFC 2474). Similar forwarding behavior to the ToS Precedence field.



Please help me, thank you.

corrupted12 welcome to the forum.

first of read through here http://www.testmy.net/forum/t-2097

also have you done spyware/adaware scans, along with virus scans.

Have you tried tweaking with cablenut at all?

[corrupted12]

Yes i've done a few adware/spyware scans, antivirus scans. I usually do them each day.
i have tried tweaking some stuff but i dont really get it, im new to this stuff, Im usin window XP, home. I got all the latest updates for my system.

[dlewis23]

download this http://www.student.i...cablenut408.exe

and apply these settings with the attached file.

It went lower >.<

[amc11890]

Have you ever got full advertised speeds?  Or has it always been near 1.5mb. 

[corrupted12]

well two days ago it worked fine. Just started yesterday.

[amc11890]

can you post a tracerroute.

[dlewis23]

if you worked find 2 days ago, then i think you need to give them a call, they make have changed some line noise patterns, it may just require them to switch it back for your speeds to be around 3mbps again.

Is that a traceroute?...

yeah that is tracer route.  Im wat kind of modem/router do you have?  Is the firmware updated?  If you have seperate router try taking a speed test with just the modem.  Make sure router and modem are not on top of each other

[dlewis23]

corrupted12 what modem do you have?

[corrupted12]

SpeedStream 5100 ethernet adsl modem
no router

make sure your firmware is up to date.

and have you given them a call.

[corrupted12]

yes my firmware is updated,
I called them, something about browser ?... whatt???

[amc11890]

try and test your speed with a diffeent browser

It went from 1.4 to 0.7 to 2.8 !!!!! This has been a long day for me...

Thx people for all your help!
