be aware!!! modems may be the problem, in this situation too. i tried a zoom x5 adsl modem some minutes ago, and all my upload problems just vanished. i didn't suspect from my previous modem, because everything else was allright. I think my modem had some poblems with the upload frequency. I want to thank you for all the efforts.

my dl was always like this. it moves between 190 and 210. cables and connections have to be fine. there were no such problems before. and i'm going directly to modem. may that be because of my corecess 3113 modem. the speed goes up and down. i once saw 40 Kbps. but it's too unstable and normally between 5-15 Kbps. the provider says, the problem's caused from my side. but i never heard a modem problem like this.

i already (and of course!) tried that demon2.

yeah i tried that. but it doesn't change. norton may decrease the upload speed, but my one is not decreased you know. it's nearly 10 % of the advertised speed. i'm still workin on it

thanks for the welcome. but i read the first topic before i posted this. it says "if your upload is lower than 90% of the ISP ' s advertised speed, there might be a problem." i mostly take 10% of that speed. so there has to be another thing. and the second one is about viruses, i surely don't have any. as i've mentioned before, this is not like an optimization thread, some specific thing has to be wrong. i want to know if somebody else had this kind of a problem. wonder if there might be a problem in my modem, because in the upload process, the modem mostly doesn't talk with the host. but why a problem like decreasing the upload speed, while the download speed is just fine ??

this is not an optimization topic. there has to be a problem with my connection. download speed seems ok for 256 kb. but upload speed is extremely low. when i try to upload something or run an upload test, my modem just sends data so rarely that an error comes at the end of most of the processes. i mostly can't even send a 200 kB picture file. i called my provider (turk telecom) , but they say everything seems ok in their side. my friends around with the same connection type don't have my problem. i can surf the net, when low upload speed is ok, but when i try some ftp upload, it just becomes a nightmare to upload data. my system is brand new installed. and i have norton 2005 systemworks as the virus program. my modem is a corecess 3113 ethernet. :::..
