harleyrider25670, Welcome to the site hope you enjoy and tell your friends about us. I also use the Broadcom 440x 10/100 Integrated Controller and really like it and it seems to work great for me, I have used other devices in the past but this works best.

Welcome to the site, sorry I missed this at first but maybe this will help........A cache (pronounced CASH....money) is a place on your puter to store something temporarily. The files you automatically request by looking at a Web page like here are stored on your hard disk in a cache subdirectory under the directory for your browser (for example, Internet Explorer thats what I use). When you return to a page you've recently looked at, the browser can get it from the cache rather than the original server, saving you time and the network the burden (which takes time=speed)of some additional traffic. You can usually vary the size of your cache, depending on your particular browser and deciding how big your cache should be When doing a speed test if things are cached (text,jpeg,etc) you don't always get an accurate speed reading....thats why TESTMY.NET is the best because his test is designed correctly to not allow you to cache the files...

Yeah I agree but what it does do is cause a different kind of reset to the modem and the network takes another look at your connection and decides if it needs to do something different or leave things the same. its funny because I have had this discussion with ppl b4 and although computers are different than phone lines I have seen it hundreds of times where there is a problem on a line and just by testing and not finding anything the problem mysteriously disappears., another for instance the last time I called my ISP to ask a quesation,...he said your modem is off line so your not really on the internet..... :ha ha: REALLY well I dont think my computer knows that because I just sent myself an email and I'm cruising all over the place....lol....but this is the kind of stuff I love ....when ALL the equipment either says everything is fine or everything is broken, and in reality the opposite is true.........Thats why I love this shiz, and things that were talked about years ago as something that technology may do someday , all that has happened and a lot more than was ever expected.......... I asked a instructor one time long before computers about the * and # sign on phones, and I was told that someday in the future that these would be used for features but probably not in our lifetime, I then asked what happens when we run out of phone numbers? and I was told again not in our lifetime all that and much more has now happened, thats why its such an exciting time in the world of computers ....for me anyway!!! Everything keeps changing so fast and so quickly its amazing, although I guess for many ppl that grew up with this stuff and just take it for granted its no big deal It hasn't really been that long ago where ppl only had 4 or 5 local T.V. stations and they went dark and played Taps at around midnite....that really sucked for someone like me that stays up most of the nite.....all that was left was late nite radio......LOL....anyway sorry ....blah, blah, blah Microwave

rotoruda , You didn't get the check we sent from the collection we made for your new car???? Hmmmm I'll look into that.......good luck with the new ride, my Pops has the same car he bought new and I borrow it sometimes because he never drives it....its a nice car and I really like using his gas ...lol...

11011100 , That tool is not just for that, it will do many things,some months back I was able to clear a similar problem using this, thats the only reason I mentioned it.....but anyway let us know what happens....OK? also do you have any logs to compare from a time when things were running good? when mine was acting strange I was able to clear by renewing everything until the next time it happened, after I got a new IP addy it has never happened again.....go figure.....of course I have been told that the two are not related but, I have had engineers tell me for years that what was happening with something was not possible.....lol ,,,,,,,,,to bad the equipment didn't know that!!!!!

2smart4u , DW is a little different for some reason,maybe because Hughes is also using the network for military spy shiz....lol, But I think and prefer to have my download speed set as high as I can get because I dont do much uploading, and as a rule most everyone uses download much more than upload...... Microwave
