Hey everyone! This is my first post, so I'll try to include everything you'll need. I just got DSL about a week and a half ago. My ISP is SBCYahoo and I got the 1.5 down. package. I'm running windows xp with service pack 1. I may download service pack 2, but why fix something if it isn't broke. Anyways, I installed vanburen's cablenut settings for my setup. I've ran quite a few tests and the best I can seem to get is 85%. Any thoughts on what the problem might be?

As you can see, the upload speeds are fine, it's the download speeds that aren't measuring up. Any ideas?
1. Your Tweakable Settings:
Receive Window (RWIN): 48960
Window Scaling: off
Path MTU Discovery: ON
RFC1323 Window Scaling: OFF
RFC1323 Time Stamping: OFF
Selective Acks: ON
MSS requested: 1452
TTL:
(less any hops behind firewall)
66
TTL remaining: 54
2. Test 146000 byte download
Actual data bytes sent: 146000
Actual data packets: 101
Max packet sent (MTU): 1492
Max packet recd (MTU): 1492
Retransmitted data packets: 0
sacks you sent: 0
pushed data pkts: 6
data transmit time: 0.638 secs
our max idletime: 61.9 ms
transfer rate: 114476 bytes/sec
transfer rate: 915 kbits/sec
This is not a speed test!
transfer efficiency: 100%
3. ICMP (ping) check
Minimum ping: 25 ms
Maximum ping: 27 ms
Ping stability:
