No, its not WiMax. It works on straight radio waves. They do make smaller antennas but I need the bigger one due to the longer distance I'm away from the tower. falco

IE for me.. Works good and I have no problems. falco

I don't have Wi-Max

Do you mean the default registry settings? If that is what you mean, click "delete cablenut tweaks", then "done", restart your computer and power down your modem. Power it back up after windows has finished loading. Good luck! falco

Start a new thread and Van Buren will fix you up! falco

Thanks for the help again

Is there a standalone program for this or is it an IE plug-in. I have noticed some guys using it to show tweaking settings, etc.

Thanks everyone for the help. I'm in Canada so I think I've found a few places where I can buy it online. I think I'll stick with the 2100.

I presently have PC 2100(266Mhz) memory on my motherboard. I want to increase my memory (add a 512 module), but I phoned my local PC supplier and he told me that he can't get PC 2100 ram anymore. He did tell me that I can use PC 3200 ram and it will step down. Can someone tell me if this is indeed true and will it work fine if I leave a PC 2100 256 Mhz module in the other slot so I can get a total of 768 Mhz?

I pay 40.00 canadian per month. I have wireless that gets it's signal from a tower 15 miles away. I get 722Kbps download and 212 Kbps upload. Because of the distance from the tower, my receiver throttles down to 1000 Kbps. All these fast speeds just make me sick!

I have the same type of wireless with an antenna on the roof of my house but I am about 18 miles from the tower. I don't have the best signal due to the distance to the tower because when they came to test to see if I could even receive it, they had a signal indicator on the portable antenna they used and I got " 2 lights instead of the full three". I find that the download speeds vary and I get between 400-700 Kbps.Not blazing but it beats my only other option-dial-up. I'm sure if i was closer to the tower, I would get faster speeds. Does your system use a 900 Mhz receiver also?

Thanks for the help. It seems that my speed is varying alot in the last 1/2 hour. I did another speed test about 15 min. ago and got 347 Kbps and now it seems slower again. I don't know if the weather interferes that much with radio signals but i am up in Canada with 2 feet of snow on the ground and it is -15 deg. out. This system is the only option I have for high speed besides satellite so I will have to live with it. I'm in a rural location and am about 15 miles from the nearest town.

here are my results: optonline.net = 35.0KB/sec newaol.com = 32.1 KB/sec tampabay.rr.com = 28.5 KB/sec I was typically getting around 50-60 KB/sec before the changes.

Bad news! It is noticeably slower after installing those registry values from cablenut. Here are the results: :::..

Here's the first test. Tracing route to testmy.net [67.19.36.6] over a maximum of 30 hops:

I use a 900 Mhz radio system using a flat antenna pointed line of site to a tower. The tower is about 15 miles away. The provider advertises upload speeds of up to 4 Mbps and up to 1 Mbps upload. My download is as follows: :::..

Does anyone have an experience with this kind of system or any suggestions on speeding it up?
