Hey I have Verizon DSL 3mb/768kbps. Is there anyway to make it faster with CABLENUT. Im not sure at all how to use it...and im not very good with network settings and stuff. sorry.

I wonder when they will offer Verzion FIOS in Boston...

resopalrabotni, what are these resources and how do i change the values?

Okay thanks alot mattmag, but There not selling Fios in my area(Boston,Mass) just yet.

I bought an ethernet card so I can share my PPPOE and my local area connection2(Lan) for Xboxlive. so that i can be on the internet and play xboxlive at the same time. Now everything was fine till about a week ago when I noticed it was saying my local area connection 2 (the ethernetcard i bought) was unplugged, but it's not unplugged. I checked the back and the green lights are not coming on. I even tried to put the ethernet card in different slots. that didn't work. I am using the right cables because they worked before. they are not damaged or anything. But what is weird is that it seems I can only use one ethernet card at a time.. because i can plug the ethernet cord into the new ethernet card and the lights will turn on, but it seems i can't use 2 of them at the time same now.. what is wrong?

I just upgraded my package with Verizon dsl from 768kbps/128kbps to 3megs/768kbps. Now im not really complaining but how come im not getting 3megs?

What does May need help : running at only 65.87 % of your hosts average (verizon.net) mean?

Does this mean I should be getting better results? If so how come I am not? I use Norton Internet Security 2003. So I am pretty sure I  have no viruses. I have spybot destroyer. I always turn norton off when i take speed tests, so what's the problem?
