well my connection seems fine at the moment .. i havent spiked for the past 15 min. and ive done numerous tests all 4.8-4.9 down i guess it was just a problem with my isp.. i feel like i wasted everyones time cause the problem basicly subsided sry about that lol.. but thx for the help. im using the 98 ME dsl/cable 1500+ cablenut config.. u gave it to me a few months back. just wondering if theres a better one to use or for my settings

i cant do a line test .. it says theres currently 11 in queue.. i guess ill edit this post when it allows me to do it

ok ran 3 tests.. 1 failed at like 20% and the other two have the same speed.. my internets possessed :::..

im using road runner, i have done a bunch of adware and virus scan but nothing seems to help. it definitly has to be packetloss because i have my 5 megs down speed and then it just spikes .. the download took 128 seconds to complete but like 110 of those seconds were me staring at a frozen loading bar.. i was actually about to format and i figured i would check out the thread.. amazing i got here without freezing and i cant run a pathping because im using win 98 SE.. so it says bad filename/invalid anything else i can do to give u a better understanding of my connection?

I was thinking about switching to wireless recently because im now gonna have 3 comps scattered in my house. My question is does wireless slow down ur connection speed at all or will i still be able to maintain 5 megs down on all 3 comps at once?

thx for the replys guys, ya RR is so nice ^^ im thinking about getting the premium service which is 8 megs down but fiber should be coming down from tampa soon and if it gets to my area watch out ~~ 15 megs down

hey, for some reason ive noticed my connection spikes randomly, i havent figured out when and why but it seems to do it in the most unexpected times. like at 7:30 in the morning.

well i dont really know much about tweaking, and i do have several adminstrator logins ^^ there are still so many restrictions and we have something called altiris which enables the tech guys to watch ur screen and stuff, and ive been installing software since 9th grade ( now im a senior ) so my ID is always being monitored lol

ok, thx for the info guys maybe ill start learning how to do some tweaks and ill get back in a few days with my new speed

ya thats gonna be sweet, a friend told me about a service up in tampa that offers 15 megs down and like 1 meg up or maybe more for only 40$, hopefully itll reach central florida by the end of the year as ive seen from other posts you are a tweak master ,how high could i get my speeds up to also is tweaking illegal because my friend had his service terminated after he capped at like 60 megs

ya the cap is 384 but it might be changed to 512 soon Question: do u have fiber optic lines running to ur house? not sure if thats a dumb question ne way our upgrade consisted of just the network being redone with fiber optic

ya my modems here, and that 384 number i threw out was just what my friend told me today. ill get back to ya ina few min. ill go check it out
