Cap

Microsoft Antispyware appears to be a great program. It found 11 instances of spyware, on my system, that Spybot and Ad-aware missed. Get it here http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx

Since the Comcast upgrade I've tried everything to get to my cap of 4000/378. Van Buren's tweaks got me an extra couple hundred kbps closer but I was routinely getting 3600 down. I was using an old Linksys BEFCMU10 modem. Everyone said upgrading modems will make no difference. Well I tried it anyway. I got a D-Link DCM-202, and am now getting a steady 4000 down. :::..

Thanks for the info. And how about the modem? I'm using an old Linksys befcmu10. I couldn't find anything about bandwidth caps for this one and Linksys hasn't had updated firmware since I've had it (over 3 years).

Has anyone found that switching to a newer ethernet adapter speeds up your connection? I'm currently using the onboard lan, very ancient, and am considering upgrading to a newer pci adapter. Could this make a difference even though my card is already operating at 100Mbps/full duplex?

Wait that link may not show MY results. Will probably show yours.

I'm using Van Burens 4000/384. Best tweak yet, getting me about 80% of my cap. Trying to do better. Check out my result of TCP analyzer on speedguide.net. https://www.speedguide.net/analyzer.php?DATA_OFFSET=40&TCP_Options_string=020405b40103030301010402&IP_MTU_DISCOVER=1&WIN=64000&RWIN=512000&MSS=1460&SCALE=3&TTL=49&TSOPT=0&SACK_PERM=1&IP_TOS=32&IP=24.218.141.198&timestamp=1108208204 It displays RWIN at 512000, not 563,200 as shownin Cablenut. Is RWIN registering in Cablenut?

Netmasta, I'm still getting erratic test results. I noticed from zip code lookup on speakeasy you're from my town, and you managed to reach 3.9Mbps. Is that stable now? Did you put a call in to Comcast? Any info is appreciated. My speed is ranging same as yours, 3.2-3.6. Which tweak are you using?

Wow! Thanks VB New speeds after applying 4000/384 tweak: :::..

Van Buren, in version 5, there is no 4000/ 384? Closest is 4000/ 512?

Just wondering, if you guys are using cablenut tweaks, specifically Van Buren's, could you please state what version and tweak file you're using?

Since recieving the Comcast upgrade to 4000/384, I've been trying to get the most of my connection. Before the upgrade (from 3MB) I would routinely get speeds 10% faster than what I paid for. Now I'm trying to get my speeds up to the advertised 4MBps. I'm running Windows XP home, sp2. Old Linksys cable modem through D-Link 624 router. All updates /drivers/firmware are up to date, with the exception of the modem. Linksys does not offer a firmware upgrade for my modem. I'm wondering if this may hinder my connection. Well here are my speeds. Note these were improved after trying various Cabl
