ive saved the tcp optimizer to my desktop butnot run it yet

anyone else got any ideas to day? really wanna try and work out if there something we missed or if it is just bad phone line, any help greatly received.

yeh go to sleep mate. thanks for all your help today/tonight, if u think of anything else add it to this thread im gunna go now too, thanks again mate. anyone think of anything else to try leave in this thread and il check it tomorrow, thanks again.

when ever i try ping www.tesco.net it doesnt work, am i pinging the wrong address?

any idea what it means?we've changed alot of things, are my settings better than they have been by these results?

this is what i am getting now, can you tell me if any better: TCP options string = 020405b40103030101010402 MTU = 1500 MTU is fully optimized for broadband. MSS = 1460 Maximum useful data in each packet = 1460, which equals MSS. Default TCP Receive Window (RWIN) = 128480 RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 1 bits (scale factor of 2) Unscaled TCP Receive Window = 64240 RWIN is a multiple of MSS Other values for RWIN that might work well with your current MTU/MSS: 513920 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 256960 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 4) 64240 (MSS x 44) bandwidth * delay product (Note this is not a speed test): Your TCP Window limits you to: 5139.2 kbps (642.4 KBytes/s) @ 200ms Your TCP Window limits you to: 2055.68 kbps (256.96 KBytes/s) @ 500ms MTU Discovery (RFC1191) = ON Time to live left = 58 hops TTL value is ok.

i'll have a fiddle, but all downloads and my settings are all correct now tho yeh? so either something interfearing wih the net or bad phone lines yeh?

could it just be a bad phone line?or because the tracert is normal does that rule out the bad phone line? ive just checked my firewall and internet activites, nothing out of the ordinary on there, nothing coming in or out, very confusing!!

thanks, i am living in a brand new house, so mayb new phone line a problem? i just checked my broadband diagnostics and got this: speed [up/down]: 288/1.152kbps cant work out how come my downloads dont equal this, where is it all going?....

ok, anything else i can do to improve my broadband download speeds now or we out of ideas?

in the top right corner of the page it says: ASN: (numbers) [NTL (NTL Group Limited)], then followed by my address

There appears to be a firewall right after (hop 10) that blocks ICMP, unwanted UDP, and unwanted TCP packets. Legend: T1/T2/T3 are the round-trip times in milliseconds (1/1000ths of a second). T1 uses a proper ICMP-based tracert (Microsoft style). T2 uses a UDP-based traceroute (Unix-style). T3 uses a TCP-based traceroute (port 80). Since many ISPs now block ICMP and/or packets to unknown ports, T3 (not used by many traceroute programs) typically shows the best results. Best times may be theoretical (if it takes 80ms to hop 10, and 50ms to hop 11, we say the best time for hop 10 is 50ms). If no reverse DNS entry is given for an IP, we display 'unknown.example.com' if the domain name is known.

this is what i got when i did the trace route before Analysis: Number of hops: 14 Last hop responding to ICMP: 13, UDP: 14, TCP: 13. There appears to be a firewall at (hop 14) that blocks ICMP (ping) packets. The destination appears to block unwanted TCP packets. Legend: T1/T2/T3 are the round-trip times in milliseconds (1/1000ths of a second). T1 uses a proper ICMP-based tracert (Microsoft style). T2 uses a UDP-based traceroute (Unix-style).

dont know what you mean sorry mate for being such a noob with this stuff

done, i have just noticed something in my tests it says this: running at only 38.15 % of your hosts average (ntli.net) but my broadband is with tescobroadband not ntli.net, does that make any difference to anything?

through a seperate modem connected via usb yes, do you mean change my password i use to sign on the net with?

what login password mate?

ok, im in cambridegshire in england, if that makes any difference

55% done and got 63.8kb average, my maximum went up from 82.9kb to 93.1 at about 40%, so should i stop the download now?

am getting an average of incoming 62.1kb at the mo, 29% done so far

big download mate what is it?u mean note speed y downloading or after?
