Thanks, hope it works.

Can someone help me with port forwarding? I can't find where to do this for my modem/router. I have a Zoom X5 5654, I recently got rid of my Linksys router ;x

:::.. Download Stats ..::: Connection is:: 929 Kbps about 0.9 Mbps (tested with 748 kB) Download Speed is:: 113 kB/s :::.. Upload Stats ..::: Connection is:: 108 Kbps about 0.1 Mbps (tested with 97 kB) Upload Speed is:: 13 kB/s Ill check out that page. Thanks

Ok thanks, I think i'm doing it wrong though. Do i Start cabenet and delete the previous settings before I enter the new ones? And do i have to restart the modem/router also? Thanks for your help, much appreciated.

Well I made one of those custom cablenut files on j79zlr a while back but i didnt know how to get the latency. How would I find out?

Can someone recommend me some cable nut settings, I'm not getting good connections I think. I'm running windows xp Home edition. My antivirus/firewall is Nod32. My ISP is SBC Yahoo. I hope thats all the info you need. I've downloaded VanBuren's Cablenut setting zip file, but which one to use?? My rates Download = 786.44 Kbps Upload = 180.87 Kbps Advertised rates 384 Kbps to 1.5 Mbps 128 to 384 Kbps

Ok, will do.

Do any of you guys use the SpeedStream Modem taht came with the SBC dsl plan? I don't know whats wrong but it just dies on me sometimes, should I talk to SBC or buy a new modem?

Its good now, I had a chat with my ISP's Tech. Its going 1.2 mbps average.

Ok, I'm downloading Sp2 as we speak. I talk to my ISP's tech support and he sorted things out. I don't know what he did but he boosted my connection to 1.2 mbps average When I test on the SBC site it says 1.2mbps but when I test on this site it says 54kbps. Thats kinda weird.

1. What OS are you running? Examples: Windows 98, Windows XP. If you have XP make sure you have SP2 installed! Also download the p2p fix for SP2 here Windows XP Home Edition 2. Who your Internet Service Provider (ISP) is, and what the advertised speed for download/upload is. SBC Yahoo DSL, I should be getting up to 1.5 Mbs. 3. What tweaking programs you already have installed, and run this test. Copy all text and paste it in your post! For security reasons, blank out your IP #. I've tried CableNut and the TC Optimizer. 4. What speed do you have against https://testmy.net and http://nitro.ucsc.edu/ also download this Tracert and Ping program (made by php) and click on check.bat. When it's done, copy and paste the results in your post. My highest Speed was 39 kb/s 5. Under your LAN connection - properties - general tab, uninstall all the protocols there that you do not need. You most likely only need "Client for Microsoft Networks" and "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)." If you share files on your home network, you also need "File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks." Done 6. Open Internet Explorer and select the Tools menu, go to Internet Options, Connections tab, click the LAN settings button, make sure nothing there is checked. Done 7. Never Connect to your modem via USB ! Always connect to your modem via ethernet (NIC) and make sure you have the latest drivers for your NIC. Set your NIC duplex mode to 10mb half duplex for Cable, for DSL it depends on the ISP service unless you are using a router, if so then set it to 100mb full duplex for both Cable & DSL. If you are using a router make sure you have the latest firmware. Where can I download firmware for Linksys and SpeedStream modem/router? 8. Power cycle your modem, unplug it for at least 30 seconds. 9. Download, update, and do a scan with SpyBot and Ad Aware to remove any spyware Done 10. ZoneAlarm firewall has known problems with dropping speed, I suggest to uninstall it and compare speed 11. Install Outpost Firewall or Sygate Firewall 12. Scan for viruses with your antivirus app, if you do not have one get one, AVG and Avast! are great 13. Make sure you have ALL of the latest Windows Updates Do I NEED SP2? 14. Download and run CCleaner 15. Go to VanBuren TestMy.net Cablenut settings and install Cablenut 4.08 and Vanburens cablenut settings version 7
