i wouldn't be... if i were downloading from a server in canada it would probably yield similar results

thats great news!

did you try replacing the cable first? try connecting your computer to the router and ping one of your other pc's on the router like your doing with websites that will allow you to test the NIC of your pc and see if it's that, it may be the modem or a problem on the ISP's side from what it sounds like

i loved spaces when i had OSX installed on this machine actually i loved mac in general i really like the OS i guess thats probably because i've been in love with linux for years haha

could be a bad cable bad modem bad router bad switch bad NIC lol could be a lot, it could not even be on your side but your ISP's. first off disconnect from the router and plug your computer in directly to the modem and try again if the problem is still there switch the cable if it still is there you might try a different modem if possible... process of elimination

windows 7 uses autotune by default which can be good or bad it just depends

nice! i want a droid! my next phone will be this beauty in about a month when my contract is up http://www.droid-life.com/2010/12/28/exclusive-12-photos-of-the-htc-thunderbolt-on-verizon/

man your desk is so clean... i'm not even going to post a picture of mine lol great choice on the modem BTW

lol SSDs will be in my next build hopfully they will be a little cheaper! yeah the H50 is very very nice i'm loving it currently. the only thing that bugs me is using that radiator with a push/pull setup made it so i couldn't use both door fans anymore i figured the CPU needed the air more then anything so i went ahead and did it like that and it does! everything runs a few degrees cooler now and my room doesn't heat up like i'm running a freakin space heater lol i didn't notice a difference on the coretemp / speedfan read differences on my temps however core temp seems to be a lot lighter program thanks!

i already did a burn in a while back heres one for full load though

5GHz is mostly LOS (Line of sight) it has a much much shorter range then 2.4GHz heres a nice post about wireless N Networking and the 5GHz / 2.4GHz differences/usages http://www.zdnet.com/blog/networking/four-ways-to-get-the-most-from-your-80211n-wi-fi/122 also wireless N can still be very fast on the 2.4GHz band you just need to have the settings right

sure! here are my idle temps and full load temps i even got a test here that shows my system tested equal with an X6 1090T idle temp as close to full load as i could get, my first attempt was trying to open 5 or 6 games but even that didn't peg all 4 cores and my test results

slik i was bored so i posted my rigs pictures in a different catagory since this one isn't really appropriate for that

i was bored so i figured what the hay maybe i can make some people jealous! just kidding. i think i'm finally done with my rig here are some pictures and here is also my network setup i just figured i'd post it to kill some time and maybe give some people ideas or inspiration My Newly Installed H50 block and Radiator A Closer look at the block Main layout and all devices connected internally ( Close up ) Main layout and all devices connected internally Video Card ( Close Up ) Case 1 Case 1 ( dark ) Case 2 showing the fan mounted on the back side of the MB My Gigabit Switch and Wireless N Network adapter connecting 1 PC and 1 Server and an xbox 360 over 1 wireless adapter My Modem and Wireless G AP My Main Router and Wireless N AP All comments are welcome! good or bad

and your supposed to be on a 50/5 connection i'm guessing?

well your upload seems to be there but download is lacking are you on wifi?

i recently installed the H50 on my CPU and have it at 4.1GHZ stable with a 52C max under a burn in so i guess you could say my CPU is a big boy now as for the inet me and CA3LE have the same package and from around 5PM to midnight every night our internet resets at 5PM and we get very very slow download rates like 5Mbps then around midnight it resets again and all is well it didn't do this before a week or so ago its a cox issue i was just wanting to see if other users in my area were having this issue btw we're on the 50/5 package

thanks i'm glad its not just me! i've been racking my brain trying to figure out whats wrong and yeah a few nights ago my service went out for about twenty minutes and since then i've been experiencing this issue edit: yes i'm in Phoenix i'm on the west side in Avondale

have you been having any speed issues with your cox during peak hours? i've been having intermitent issues where my download speed drops to horrible i've power cycled everything and it works fine for about 30 minutes but then the issue presents itself again its pretty sad when my upload is twice as fast as my download... i'm on the cox ultimate package and i'm pretty sure the noise levels are fine aswell as power level readings >.> that tracert is concerning me abit though :::..

thats not exactly a burn in though but BC2 would put some strain on it

what sites were giving you the problem, is it still occuring?

i have the same package and am seeing virtually the same results your getting cable even at peak hours i don't really see a dip in the speed to much
