  1. I think others on here are getting better speeds than that. I saw one earlier that was close to 8000. You never know. And he said he was also on the 7 package. I am assuming you are running a clean computer? http://www.testmy.net/forum/t-4257 And have you tweaked it as of yet? http://www.testmy.net/forum/t-1013
  2. Strange, ok. How about this schoolbus? No more listening to the kids screaming. The car is just a little different.
  3. Something like this karthic. Just a plug in timer. This one is $9 and has 2 on and off settings as to when you want it to come on and off. You can probably get one just about anywhere. Walmart. http://www.electricsuppliesonline.com/inrapasetitn.html
  4. What are your advertised speeds? Mine is 700/128. You lucky dog.

    Thinking since since you said "registry", and this might be off the beaten path. But have you checked in safemode to make sure you are running a clean computer? Spyware or Virus? Or have you tried restore point? Here's something to read: http://www.gamespot.com/pc/strategy/thesims2/show_msgs.html?topic_id=m-1-29792996 http://www.computing.net/windowsxp/wwwboard/forum/153676.html http://gbxforums.gearboxsoftware.com/archive/index.php?t-32292.html I hope this helps.
  6. Welcome to the forum SuperNode So if that is a 6 meg package,( I am not very good at distinguishing between them) those are some fine speeds. Hope you enjoy your stay here at TMN.
  7. destructionfever any and all or none of the original packaging would help. Just take it to customer service and start from there. Do you know anybody with a Big mouth that can yell for you, maybe your wife or a close relative? Someone that cares enough. As I told an insurance adjuster one time that wanted partial pieces of plywood replaced on a customers house (for roofing). I asked him if I could come over and do the same type of job on his house? He replied no. And paid for full sheet replacement. Yeah he wanted me to cut plywood into strips to replace rotten plywood! Just ask them if they would put up with this at their own house. Not the flunky, but a supervisor. As I am sure the flunkies are trained to only save the store money. Always talk to a super since they are the only ones able to make real life judgment's. All the way up to store manager if necessary. Polite is fine, but do not take a no, without saying "That is not acceptable, may I talk to your boss?" Of course they will take that bad, but to bad. "I want to speak to your boss". This may beyond what you want to do, but I will ask for the district managers office number if necessary. I can be brutal, if I am thinking how much work and savings I had to do just to earn this particular item. By the way, the first time you should be expected to be somewhat nervous. That is ok. That maybe what helps you through it. Just stand firm. And don't back down.
  8. Heck I will give the $59.95 I give for 700/128 to get that, if you can reach Missouri!
  9. Welcome to the forum 318is Have you read: "Achieve the Best Performance Out of Your Computer" http://www.testmy.net/forum/t-4257 Have you tried tweaking the connection yet? http://www.testmy.net/forum/t-1013 You might be able to do better.
  10. A. Yes B. The best avaliable right now. C. Needed an installer. D. Yes.Telephone. Most times when I got the right Inian. E. No F. It beats dial-up, sometimes. Hope that helped.
  11. Forget the warranty, I would want Best Buy to honor the defective equipment they sold Me! I would not care about the warranty. Stand behind what they sell. If I took my business else where, then who wins?
  12. I get what php gets, only when it is doing a job.
  13. Nice monitor there just-, I am not sure anybody living at home ought to have one of those though. "WHAT DID YOU SAY ?" "I SAID THE KID OR THE MONITOR HAVE GOT TO GO !"
  14. Looking pretty good there olythumper.
  15. Welcome to the forum Spook63 Nice speeds. I am not sure if I like any of you. Your not sharing those wonderful speeds.
  16. Lump and lumped=group and grouped. Togather. Sorry.
  17. If you get a chance davidrose9 post a speed test using the 2992 file test.
  18. Welcomeback to the forum loki123 For some reason I do remember you. So how's it going? Nice speeds. DSL ? I forgot to mention you posted your speeds in a satelite thread.
  19. Simple, it means the average of all plans on your ISP. All speed packages. Like DSL, they lump the 384, 768, 1.5, 3.0, and 6.0 (assuming I got all the numbers correctly). Well whatever the average speed of all the users is lumped into the same average. So 384 obviously will never reach the average, whereas the 6.0 should Never be as low as the average. Not really uncommon.
  20. Weird looking porsche? Just something about the headlight buckets.
  21. So you are leaving the world of CRT then php?
  22. I was going to say that. Really! OK, I was busy in the forum and was going to get to it in a while. Really!
