76 for me.

They were the first ones in Cali to not use MTBE in their gas....so I jumped on and never looked back.

I wanna know this too...are they changing the file names or just the values?

Not to be picky, but if you're paying for 30Mbps, you should be getting 30Mbps..not 25Mbps.  The 30/5 plan isnt cheap.

Try downloading from adobe.com  Thats where I get my astest speeds.  You should see around 3.5-.3.75MB/s speeds.  If you dont see those speeds try tweaking and you may go even FASTER!

Well, she's paying for DSL Pro, which I assume the "average" customer doesnt have.  I was just making sure that 2.5dn on a 3dn plan was a decent speed.

Ah, I thought it was 768.

Well, its better than paying twice as much to go just as fast w/Adelphia.

Im on my GF's computer right now, and she has SBC Yahoo DSL.  It's DSL Pro (3/768).  Ive tried CableNuts, TCP Optimizer and several other reg tweak programs and this is the fastest I can get:

I know that line distance has a lot to do with speeds but according to broadband reports (i know, its not that accurate) she's not even a mile away.

Any advice or suggestions?  I know its "close" to the limits, but Im just trying to get her as much as I can.

Thanks.

You might not need nero.

If you use DVD Shrink to make an ISO image, you "should" be able to burn it in DVD Decrypter w/o Nero.

Thats cracy about the truck.  Im in Covina (by Pasadena/Arcadia) and I lost service a couple of times today.

Comcast has also been doing maitenance on their system.

I know it says Central, but you never know. 

Im liking it just fine.

Theyre basic plan is faster than verizon.  More expensive tho.  However I always get advertised speeds.  Even tho they say 4Mbs down, its really 4.4.  They dont tell you because you most likely wont see that extra .4 (overhead)

Im having the same problem with the same exact router.

I think the only way might be to upgrade to a 3rd party firmware.  HyperWRT or the one by Sveasoft I think.

I dont wanna change firmware though as the latest version of the official linksys firmware (4.0.0.7 I think) is the only one that fixes my problem with Large wireless transfers timing out.

Any suggestions?

Welcome to the forum pacman, dont mind these guys anytime someone toasts their speeds they say its uncapped. :haha: Jealous bastards. Anyway nice speeds, hope you like it here tell your friends. If you havent tweeked that connection yet look up VanBuren he can probably squeeze a lil more out for ya.

Hey there,

I tried using cablenuts, however since I couldnt find settings that mathced my connection I used "custom ones" from a site that I found on here (i forgot the name as I just woke up).  My speeds actually dropped to around 9500kbs so I removed the tweaks.  Im pretty sure its my own fault though.

No biggie.  Thanks for the warm welcome.

hot stuff

I was on the old attbi network.  At that time I was paying $79 for an 7 or 8mb plan, I dont remember which.  When Comcast took over the speeds went up.  Im still paying $79 (plus $3 modem lease).

I dont think there are many people with Cable internet around here, so maybe they have it because they figure they have enough bandwidth?

Either way, Im not complaining.
