  1. I also love Cox Cable. My internet speed used to be 4Mbps. Out of the blue, they uped it to 7Mbps. I'm happy but I don't know why I did it. I see no price changes or anything about that. ::::::::::..

Our speeds are slower because we're not a big city. But I'm happy they did this. The faster, the better. BTW, I just found out today that they uped the speeds . I forgot to mention that this was with the Preffered package, not the Premier one.
  2. I have no clue what mine means. Whenever I play a new game, I want a new and unique name. So, when I type one in, I press the first letter randomly and the next. If it doesn't look good, I keep the first but tune it up until I like the name. Made this name years ago and it stuck. Now I use it for everything.
  3. Never had to tweak my upload at all anyway. First time I tested my upload speed, it was over average and over my max (512). I usually get 514 or more . Good for me.
  4. It didn't speed up my computer but it sped up my internet a lot .
  5. All's well. I ADVISE EVERY DOWNLOAD THIS PROGRAM! http://www.download.com/TuneUp-Utilities/3000-2086_4-10280149.html?tag=lst-0-1. I never get lower than 3.8megs/sec now.
  6. ATTENTION!!! ATTENTION!!! I recently stumbled upon a program that accelerated my internet speed BIGTIME. I tried cablenut, but it only sped up my connection to about 2800 when I'm supposed to be getting 4000. Well, after doing the internet adjustments from the programs, it fixed all the errors I caused and I came out with these results: :::.. Download Stats ..::: Connection is:: 3854 Kbps about 3.9 Mbps (tested with 2992 kB) Download Speed is:: 470 kB/s Tested From:: https://testmy.net/ (server2) Test Time:: Tue Jul 19 2005 06:31:24 GMT-0500 (Central Daylight Time) Bottom Line:: 69X faster than 56K 1MB download in 2.18 sec Diagnosis: Looks Great : 17.86 % faster than the average for host (cox.net) Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-3ELYK65HR The program that did this was TuneUp Utilities 2004. It's the best internet tweak I've ever had. I ADVISE EVERYONE WHO HAS A SLUGGISH INTERNET TO GET THIS NOW! You can get it here http://www.download.com/TuneUp-Utilities/3000-2086_4-10280149.html?tag=lst-0-1. This is a very helpful program.
  7. During peek hours, mostly 1.8megs. At night I average 2.5.
  8. I have the 4000/512 package. And I only live about 30 mins away from the area in a small city.
  9. Can any cox user, that gets over the average speed and uses cablenut, give me their numbers they use? I need a speed boost very badly. Post here or contact me on AIM if you have it. My name's lilmammoth090.
  10. This is what I get during peek hours: :::..

I hope you feel bad about sufferers like me lol.
  11. Can I improve my modem here or something?
  12. Running that 12mb test I got: :::.. Download Stats ..::: Connection is:: 2957 Kbps about 3 Mbps (tested with 12160 kB) Download Speed is:: 361 kB/s Tested From:: https://testmy.net/ (server2) Test Time:: Sat Jul 16 2005 13:39:59 GMT-0500 (Central Daylight Time) Bottom Line:: 53X faster than 56K 1MB download in 2.84 sec Diagnosis: 90% + Okay : running at 90.54 % of your hosts average (cox.net) Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-M60CUV2J5 I'm running windows XP and I don't know what that page thing means. I'm on a Terayon TJ715 modem. And I'm not on a wireless. I know better than to get on a wireless because I'm a gamer .
  13. "By the way, this is not a bullsh*t 'accelerator' crap program, this actually does not even run after the settings are applied. As with SpeedGuides TCPOptimizer this simple makes a few changes to your registry. This program is free to download, free to use and free to distribute (since this is not my software please read the license agreement for distribution) My personal experience I personally used ProgramCablenutVanBurens cablenut settingsversion 2WinXP_2K_CABLE_DSLMSS1460Cable & DSL 5000 768.ccs" That's quoted from CA3LE. I used the settings it says above with the cablenut and now I get over average bandwidth. I'M SO FRIGGIN HAPPY NOW!! :::.. Download Stats ..::: Connection is:: 3425 Kbps about 3.4 Mbps (tested with 1496 kB) Download Speed is:: 418 kB/s Tested From:: https://testmy.net/ (server1) Test Time:: Sat Jul 16 2005 01:50:40 GMT-0500 (Central Daylight Time) Bottom Line:: 61X faster than 56K 1MB download in 2.45 sec Diagnosis: Looks Great : 4.9 % faster than the average for host (cox.net) Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-YPLOCHW1D
  14. I'm getting pretty angry seeing how people with preferred service, 4mb/512kb, are getting way better speeds than I am. Most of the people I see here with the same server I have are getting better than average. While I'm stuck here: :::.. Download Stats ..::: Connection is:: 1944 Kbps about 1.9 Mbps (tested with 2992 kB) Download Speed is:: 237 kB/s Tested From:: https://testmy.net/ (server2) Test Time:: Fri Jul 15 2005 20:23:40 GMT-0500 (Central Daylight Time) Bottom Line:: 35X faster than 56K 1MB download in 4.32 sec Diagnosis: May need help : running at only 59.56 % of your hosts average (cox.net) Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-I3F1ZXHGJ Cox technicians even came down to my house and changed the cable box up on the pole and re-routed all cable wires in my house, away from the cable modem so my internet would gain speed. But it has failed. It only slightly increased speed. The highest I've ever gotten in speed is 2.6mb. I'm only about 20-30 mins away from the provider. Shouldn't get that much loss in the line. I've even tried the speed up suggestions by VanBuren, but none have worked. I dled the TCP_Optimizer_zipped.zip from one of CA3LE's posts. It didn't improve my speed but it kept it no lower than 1.4mb. Please, please help me. I've had this problem ever since I signed up with cox cable years ago. I've tried many optimizers, but they all haven't helped. I know you people are better than them programs, so, can anyone solve this problem that has plagued me? Also, please don't suggest on me contacting Cox. Whenever I call customer support, they check the modem and don't find anything wrong with the speed. And it's not cox because my bro has the same deal as me and he dls at 4mb a sec and I can only dl 500kb a sec with an accelerator. Without and accelerator, it's lower 200's.
