  1. That 14% you are reading in the speed test, is for verizon overall. You have 81% of your advertised speed that you are paying for.
  2. I prefer the prebuilt steel ones. And no splinters. Good luck. You should have seen my roofers assembling a steel shed for me one time. It went up, but it was not square or plumb.
  3. When power cycling a sat modem, you do not even have to touch the end of the cable. Just leave it sit a minute or so. And it does get it working again.
  4. I can't stand American Idol and I do not have cable TV. But if I did I would probably watch it. I do love country.
  5. So you have not got a chance to tweak it yet? Try one of these: http://www.testmy.net/forum/t-1013 If that don't work in a coupole of days, post back or PM me and I will get you something that may do the trick. And don't forget to let the cablenut set in a couple, three days to get full effects.
  6. I actually have one bank account for rentals if that is what you mean. I just go through the checks and the monthly statements at the end of the year, and sort them into piles, for the tax lady. But as I mentioned before, I am not much of an office person. I am sure there is a lot better way. For me one account is easiest since all the money is necessary for all of them. An accountant would probably disagree with me, and wonder how I get along. I just use the memo section to name the reason for the check usage. One thing I learned from a slum lord friend of mine, is that every body can learn from others, but in the end each will do it in his or her own way. If you come with a better way, let me know. I am always learning. If you are to big to learn something new, then you just went stale.
  7. Welcome to the forum deserttoad Mine just got choked by the storm also, about the same time. Are you in KC MO area? Have you read: http://www.testmy.net/forum/t-4257 http://www.testmy.net/forum/t-1013 http://www.testmy.net/forum/t-3924 http://www.testmy.net/forum/t-2097
  8. Did not know that. I thought I read a post where it did. I'll know better next time.
  9. That would be a lot faster than sat. The only thing sat. is better than in USA is dial-up. Or maybe 128 isdn. Research is cheaper than a mistake any day. Good luck.
  10. My problem, which I will get used to is that I am researching what I am posting sometimes. Sometimes I will go to more than one resource to get my info, so as to put it all togather, and not get posted in between. But I guess a doublepost will have to do! A general post would have helped, thanks php. Actually I feel for dial-up users. So I guess it would be best for long ones to do in notepad first?
  11. Yes, just read through here, and pick the one that fits best. Also when you do install it, you will get some jump. But in a couple of days, probably 3, you will see the rest. As it takes a coule of days to fully set in. Enjoy. http://www.testmy.net/forum/t-1013
  12. Unless you hurry now it will always double post. Some reason they remove the modify too early now. It used to always be there if it was your post. Only way is to wait until someone else posts.
  13. No, you should be able to get closer to your cap. That is only 81 %.
  14. Have you defragged or cleaned out your registry lately? Reset the modem?
  15. Try cleaning out your files in tools and internet options, and testing with the 2992 test file.
  16. Well this is even crazier. :::.. Download Stats ..::: Connection is:: 3088 Kbps about 3.09 Mbps (tested with 2992 kB) Download Speed is:: 377 kB/s Tested From:: https://testmy.net (Server 1) Test Time:: 2006/04/22 - 3:31pm Bottom Line:: 54X faster than 56K 1MB Download in 2.72 sec Tested from a 2992 kB file and took 7.937 seconds to complete Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.0.3705; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; Media Center PC 4.0; .NET CLR 2.0.50727) Diagnosis: Awesome! 20% + : 215.1 % faster than the average for host (direcpc.com) Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-V7EZPI8C6 This would be my record. Totally.
  17. I meant at school. At home have you tried tweaking. Is your comuter clean. Post a speed test.
  18. Great yours is going nutty also. Is this your second test? I got over 2000kbps before. And your cache is clean, I know, done that. Welcome to my world.
  19. Can you do a print screen, paint, then put it in your pics. Then browse in options under modify post.
  20. Yes I am. Actually Hughes,net now. And AMC9 is my satelite. 1310 is like frequency or something. It saved a lot of time when I first started so people could get info for my questions or answers without having to post.
  21. Asuming you are running a clean machine, Antivirus, Antispyware, defrag, and registry cleaning, you may see a little more jump in about 3 days of installing cablenut. It sometimes takes that long to fully settle in.
  22. Again, I would say that that is pretty close to your advertised speeds. But maybe Van can do something. Try PMing him.
