At last, my connection's better!!! It seems the problem was in our modem...it was just too old I guess.... After the replacement, I just did what you guys posted, since it was still slow, and now here's the new result Thank you for your help Van. ::::::::::..

Hey Jose Rizal What does that program do? VanBuren, I just finished doing all those listed...finally...but still no change...I also did the TCP optimizer config, still going to do another speed test though...just to see any difference... -Mark G.

Ok, apparently, my ISP is running at 1mbps, and my friend doesn't really believe in those accelerators cuz he thinks that they're just RAM eaters. And the results...

I did what you said, and this was the result, and, btw, thanks for the welcoming. Sorry if I'm still noob to these things...
