Ill try it ...thank again very much

Oh my GOD I only have 1 year and 7 months to figure how to set my computer time forward an hour... and last but not least just another clock to have to screw with before I go to bed that night...isn't that just the US government for ya...always trying to make it harder on the working man

my thought is then that even if the other CPUs are dormant that they are still consumming a certain amount of bandwith, is this correct?

My signal strength is around 84....and I am connected to my modem through a 100mb router that is connected to the modem ... not through a host computer...I would not classify that as a shared connection, but I don't know much about this stuff. is that considered a shared connection??

Thank you for all of your help...wish it could have helped... but here are the readings after optimizing With cablenut Ver. 7 MTU 1500...and so on :::..

HM this banter isn't helping me much

I have installed my DW6000 (goodbye DW4000). My speeds on the previous client computers have greatly improved, partially because of eliminating a much slower host computer and partially because of a networking issue. However, my DL speeds are hovering around 700kbs/sec and I have seen consistent speeds of around 1000kbs/sec from other forum posts. I also understand that DW controls the speeds at a max of 1000kbs/sec with the DW6000, which is not a problem and beats dial-up speeds I have installed and run the cablenut program and have also run the TCP tweak...any other suggestions to sp

OK here goes... I have a dw4000 system and have been a subscriber for several years. Not as fast as cable but am glad that I do not have to use dial up. Lately my speeds have been slower than normal on my client computers but not on the host computer. I have the network running like it always has but my speeds on the two (2) client computers are terrible. My DL speeds on the host computer are ranging around 1.2-1.7 Mb/sec but the client computer speeds are running 200-300 Kb/sec, almost 80% less. My network consists of three (3) computers, all running XP. They are hardline connect
