I have Cox Communications (Phoenix, AZ) - About few months ago I first started using this website and I love it - for some odd reason my service has gotten slower => these are few tests I ran, and setting I have - my question is: Is it possible to tweak the settings a little bit more, to get some extra juice out of my service
