Worth a shot just make sure that slot supports 16x some have only one 16x spot and the other is strictly 4x or 8x also try manually setting the pci express frequency to 100Mhz in the bios over clock settings
-
That was gonna be my next suggestion

Try removing the display drivers installed and either install an older version or beta version could very well be a corrupted driver

Geniuses Wanted: Suggestions for 3rd party modem/router
TriRan replied to jackdashack's topic in Make it Faster...
alright i had a little time today so i looked up some router models well within your price range Routers: Netgear N900 -$129 Netgear N600 -$99 Asus RT-N56U -$99 D-Link N750 -$89 D-Link DIR-850L -$129 Any of those routers would be a fine choice, many of which you will find in your local best buy as for the modem your options are limited but i did find the Arris TM822G brand new for $130 with free shipping it would be quite a bit cheaper then its motorola counterpart which hovers around $180 just for the modem/telephone if you decided on the Arris and got say the Netgear N900 both have free shipping and would put your total investment around $250 you would be rid of that pesky leasing charge and have a much more powerful homenetwork the Arris TM822G is approved for comcast Xfinity aswell and to answer your questions earlier Wireless N - correct! Dual Band - can be simultaneous 2.4GHz is preferable because 5GHz is almost line of sight the higher the freqency the more interference there is going through objects such as walls E4 - i believe hes referring to the linksys E4000 series router and tomato is a type of open source firmware that can be installed QoS - Quality of Service think of it like load balancing it's supposed to on a connection by connection basis ( every connection your computer makes to the outside world which is typically hundreds even thousands ) classify and prioritize. what that does is say your streaming a HD movie and someone else on your wifi starts a simple file download from a website, it's supposed to keep your streaming at a higher priority so your packets are always transferred first as to eliminate buffering, what i've found with QoS is most routers do not have the resources to do this properly so you might actually lose thoroughoutput by the router being overwhelmed with tasks. i usually do not use this feature and firmware is like an kind of like an operating system think of it as windows is for your computer a firmware is the base operating system for the router or just about any electronic device even your TV has firmware or cellphone -

I think he currently has A promo deal where he has to have it to get the pricing. Sorry I haven't replied sooner this week has been probably the busiest of my life I haven't even had time to get on the computer to look up routers but I promise I will try my best to look it up tomorrow before I go to work -

i've never replaced a modem like that but any cable modem you can get that does not have the router built in will be just fine... i don't believe the arris modem you linked has the telephony built in, the motorola one does though as for routers i'm really liking d-link and netgear at the moment i am far from impressed with the linksys stuff that has been coming out recently and i haven't had much success with belkin in years if your wanting me to help you look up some models of routers i'd be happy to in the morning just let me know how many devices your looking to connect what kind of range you might want and your budget -
Welcome to the site! nice speeds!

I was thinking once you get latency testing done you could incorporate that into the main test to help detect if someone is on satellite or not

when i had ultimate i consistantly went over the 400GB cap and even now i consistantly go over the 300GB cap and have never heard a peep from cox about it
-
You know you can get ultimate for less money and get 150/20

As far as I'm aware that doesn't exist for Dsl at least not in the United States from what I'm reading only Korea uses that type of technology for aDSL
-
Well the modem I am referring to is for cable Internet and it would probably help a lot you see your cable modem will sync to see specific channel over time and if that channel is saturated with to many clients you won't see your bandwidth docsis3.0 modems bond multiple channels to achieve your advertised speeds so think of it as multi threading a download the cool thing about docsis3.0 modems is even docsis2.0 service benefits from them there is a post on here somewhere explaining that I will try to find it for you in a bit when I'm not posting from my mobile
-
what you already have and plan to do are really your only options unless you switch to cable. It sounds like it has been a while since you used it they could have upgraded and even if they haven't you could always try a docsis3.0 modem as they support channel bonding even when your not using docsis3.0 service

sounds good! i hope they find out what the problem is but i have a suspicion that it is the wireless radio on that gateway just isn't fast enough -

TriRan replied to jackdashack's topic in Make it Faster...
you are correct there is no device to handle modem/router/telephone but there are modems you can buy which handle modem/telephone where you could still add your own router the devices i found which support telephone/docsis 3.0 below http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-SBV6220-Surfboard-Digital-SBV-6220/dp/B0045TB51A/ref=pd_sim_sbs_e_7 http://www.amazon.com/ARRIS-Touchstone-Cable-Modem-DOCSIS/dp/B008GG78FU/ref=pd_sxp_grid_pt_1_2 also i've been reading that best buy sells the ARRIS modem for around $150 -
DROID dna is unrootable at the moment it should be soon though at which time u will root it I had my thunderbolt rooted the entire time I owned it

Yeah I was in the same boat I was using a thunderbolt and it was a great phone but it was beginning to have some issues as old phones tend to so I finally got fed up and upgraded and man am I glad I did

no problem at all! it's what we're here for
