About the only difference between the two is the grill and taillights. That is GM for you. In the old days they were much different. Suspension wise anyway. The T/A was tops.

I knew we forgot someone.

That is true. The only thing you miss out on is a white christmas if it ever arrives. We will not be seeing one here this year. It will probably start snowing the first of the year. Where do you live storm?

Actually I have (so far) successfully quit smoking this time. And losing weight is the only thing besides getting single that is left to make my life happy. So did you get done with yours yet? And yes Americans are too insecure. About most everything. If they would stop looking for the answers from some lunatic on T.V. with a talk show, they might do better on there own. Although what would these talk show hosts do then

Go figure a sports car being stuck in the snow. Glad it is over for now for you.

Welcome to the forum speedmeup2 First off they have slowed down the 4000 system speeds. They appear to have slowed down the speeds with all of the users on here. Something about whining about the bandwidth usage. Probably just wanting to sell more equipment. They took your 4000? Man that is not fair. So how were your speeds on the 4000? Here they were being held back to 1000 D/L speeds, consistently. Instead of testing with the smart test try the 2992 file test for your D/L and 579 for your U/L test. And clean out your temporary files before each and every D/L test. PM me if you do not get the modem's back.

I was meaning the other way around. I was suggesting they test with the 20 meg. to make it even.

I hope so also coknuck, for you guys. But for some reason...I doubt it.

I meant the advertised speeds. What they told you to expect up to?

Actually I was just showing how testing on satelite shows nothing. I never said I get these speeds anytime I want (nobody does on sat), or about any tweaking in that post. I was only following what you said about more tests in a row.and I actually gave you 4) And I never said or hid what time of day or night it was. So once again how does testing on sat do any good in the first place. And that was a very close timed 4 in a row. Exactly what I keep hearing. So once again satelite sucks. Not just on Dway any more. You said you wanted to argue, I only posted info.

I just noticed something, scoob8000 was using the 20 meg test fella's. http://www.testmy.net/tools/test/d_load.php?&st=st&tt=1&ta=1&top=000&out_src=20MB And you were using the 12 meg.

I don't remember, how many in a row was that supposed to be? :::..

So here is one I got in an e-mail. Anybody else have any? I hope it is presentable. I think so. A CHRISTMAS STORY 'Twas the night before Christmas Old Santa was pissed. He cussed out the elves and threw down his list. Miserable little brats, ungrateful little jerks. I have a good mind to scrap the whole works. I've busted my ass for damn near a year, Instead of "Thanks Santa" - - What do I hear? The old lady bitches cause I work late at night. The elves want more money--The reindeer all fight. Rudolph got drunk and goosed all the maids. Donner is pregnant and Vixen has AIDS. And just when I thought that things would get better Those assholes from the IRS sent me a letter. They say I owe taxes--if that ain't damn funny Who the hell ever sent Santa Claus any money? And all the kids these days--they are all the pits. They want the impossible--Those mean little shits. I spent a whole year making wagons and sleds Assembling dolls--Their arms, legs and heads. I made a ton of yo-yo's--No request for them, They want computers and robots...they think - I'm IBM Flying through the air...dodging the trees Falling down chimney's and skinning my knees. I'm quitting this job-there's just no enjoyment I'll sit on my fat ass and draw unemployment There's no Christmas this year-now you know the reason, I found me a Blonde. I'm going SOUTH for the season. Author unknown Gotta feel sorry for that fella.

Yeah, that big one always seems to be the favorite. Especiallly with the girls. And those sides do sound pretty good if I may say so myself.

Now this is not usually my style (especially RAP) but in this case it show a very dazzling dude. I kinda liked it. http://video.yahoo.com/video/play?vid=5526c0bf291699e8a9b865df78863d37.48eff228db5618d9db36f07fe5be36e3 [ Nothing religious intended. ] Now there is some jewelry Ryan.

What is that scoob8000, 35/10 or something? You have very nice speeds also Voltageman.

What are the speeds for the value pack Basil ?

Well then here is the grill, I figured it fit the occassion. Only I think I will let you pick the grill of your choice.

Hopefully that is the answer for many. Including us sat users.

Well one good thing about insight coknuck, at least you do not have to talk to someone half way around the world about it.

Very nice speeds indeed trekker for 3 meg.

Nice pic Roco. That does look rather old. OK I guess 69 is dating you a bit. I was in the 5th grade then.

Have you read "Achieve the Best Performance Out of Your Computer "? Click this link. http://www.testmy.net/forum/t-4257 Do the whole page. It will help. Clean up and maintenence are the most important speed tips. Then post a speed test results again. And what are your advertised speeds?

Hey, I am cuter than he is! And the n is small. "coknuck"

Welcome to the forum Basil and jcphipps Most satelite users have all the same problems.
