I fixed the first link in my profile. Nero's US Server 6 is having trouble. You can rely on EA Games' Battlefield 2 patch download, they have a pretty powerful server. If you do not reach your "expected speeds", that means your connection is not really that fast, but rather, got a fake result in speed test.

I am not reaching the full capacity of the speed.

Try downloading the files and watch your speeds...?

It doesn't give an expected speed result.

Check my siggy for custom speed tests

How's that going to tell me the speed?

speed test are not 100% accurate, don't depend on them too much....

you might want to try different server from testmy.net to see if improves.

and about rebooting stuff  for a new IP, I have had the same IP address for a few years with Comcast now... even changing speed teirs, i've kept the same IP,

ONLY time it changes... is IF i were to move.

If you need to change it, give it a try using my tip.  I've done it a million fucking times

Have you got banned some place and would like to change your IP address?

It's very simple, change your MAC address (only last 2 letters), restart your pc, modem (do a power cycle) and you've got yourself a new IP.

Step 1: (If you know how to find out your MAC Address, skip to step 2)

Start > Run > cmd

When command prompt appears, type in 'ipconfig /all'

Physical Address is your MAC Address.

Step 2:

System properties (right click on My Computer, properties) > Hardware > Device Manager > Find you network adapter and go to its properties.  Go to Advanced and click on Network Address, check next to the empty box and write a new MAC Address. *Make sure you enter your new MAC address without hyphens or spaces.

Hey dog, can you send me one of ur  fixes to make this go faster? 

I get 4.0 Mbits (the exact advertised speed)

But I was wondering if you could tweak it around.. to maybe get a lil extra

Here's what I got..

Comcast - 4000/384

Connected through Ethernet

WinXP SP2

Hm.. If you need anything else, let me know.

This is a Comcast forum, gosh darnit!    :angry5:
