the UDP speed, is usally the maximal speed you will get and in your case its abit over 6 Mbps the server probl use default TCP settings and thats why you dont go faster in TCP is that the fastest server for you in that list .s1? VanBuren

i also use Neotrace, and think its great but no visual trace is accurate, my site in ST Petersburg, that was news to me VanBuren

yea those timeouts seems to be a bug in the program, i also get timeouts sometimes also the testserver probl use windows default TCP settings, it should be around same speed as UDP with optimal TCP settings thats dern nice speed, on that file download and your screenshot was made when file was almost completed, then it show a more accurate speed. when you click on a link like this the webbrowser start to download the file before you even choosed where to save it, so i dont think it shows a accurate reading only downloading 9 MB. the best is to download the file and when its done make a screenshot then you will see the average speed of the download. I made a screenshot once of this, said i was dl at 8,5 MB/s and my netgraph showed 98% of 10 Mbps hehe VanBuren

bypass your router and connect pc direct to modem, and make a new speed and linequality test VanBuren

do a new linequality test now, without router VanBuren

no problem, i could need a router myself so if i had one it wouldnt lying around VanBuren

never click on these sort of mails, get a Antispam and a good virus program and delete em VanBuren

yea i attach it here VanBuren

lol dern nice speed, too bad im capped 10 Mbps, i bet you would do atleast 30 Mbps if i had a 100 Mbps connection problem is that my connection peaks out above 8-9 Mbps, so to maxout and get 9,5 Mbps you will need a very low ping try this program i attach, its Swedish but just choose a server in list and click "Starta Test" that will test your UDP and TCP speed Edit: dern nice trace only 13 hops, my gateway and pc block ICMP traffic VanBuren

then you wont go faster, your 5 Mbps cap stopping you VanBuren

no problem, i think the patch suggest 50, so try that VanBuren

the RWIN is in range for a Win XP SP2 tweaked system with a 4 Mbps cap Receive Window (RWIN): 448512 the analyzer read DefaultReceiveWindow in SP2 and not TcpWindowSize like before quote from http://www.dslnuts.com/2kxp.shtml " 1. DefaultReceiveWindow - The number of receive bytes that AFD buffers on a connection before imposing flow control. For some applications, a larger value here gives slightly better performance at the expense of increased resource utilization. Value Type: REG_DWORD Default: 4096/8192/8192 32. TcpWindowSize - This parameter determines the maximum TCP receive window size offered by the system. The receive window specifies the number of bytes a sender may transmit without receiving an acknowledgment. In general, larger receive windows will improve performance over high (delay * bandwidth ) networks. For highest efficiency, the receive window should be an even multiple of the TCP Maximum Segment Size (MSS). Value Type: REG_DWORD

try powercycle your modem, leave it off for 30 seconds also if you have a router, bypass it and connect directly to the modem, check speed again. if speed is still slow, email this link to your ISP and let them fix the loss VanBuren

so you loaded the new driver? sign up here and make a line quality test http://www.dslreports.com/tools its free "Line Packet Loss Testing Packet loss tests on your line, including identification of any problem routers en-route to you.." when you see result, copy whole URL adress and paste it here so we can see it VanBuren

http://www.broadcom.com/drivers/downloaddrivers.php i downloaded the driver, and attach it here click on " winXP-4.28" unzip it to a new folder and let windows search in that folder when its looking for updated drivers. VanBuren

hey vagarcia74 and welcome to the forum go to start-run type command and hit enter, type pathping testmy.net and hit enter, right click copy all and paste it in your post. also run this test http://www.dslreports.com/tweaks when you see result, copy the URL adress and paste it here so we can see it VanBuren

omg !!! :haha: Sweet VanBuren

good deal VanBuren

yea hes RWIN is for a 6 Mbps connection VanBuren

FF most of the time and IE sometimes VanBuren

no i didnt say that..... Im saying USB slow you down compared to a NIC, how much depends on what connection you have VanBuren

here you go VanBuren

hey thesk8nmidget and welcome to the forum the reason you go faster with router installed is, that the modem have a 10 Mbps port and when you connect your pc direct to modem and run your NIC in "auto", then win XP give you a RWIN of 17520 If you connect to a router, the WAN port remains at 10 Mbps ( to your modem ) and your LAN is 100Mbps, then win XP thinks you have a 100 Mbps connection and increase your RWIN to 65535 But if you have been tweaking RWIN, then it will be locked and dosent change..... anyways follow these steps and post again https://testmy.net/topic-2097 VanBuren

heya TJ you have some loss even tho you passed the test, lets see if we can go any faster Install win XP SP2 if you dont already have it download and install Cablenut https://testmy.net/forum/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=1013.0;id=64 download this attached file (Cable & DSL 3000 384.zip ), unzip it to C:ProgramCablenut open cablenut adjuster, in top left corner click file, load custom settings file, browse to C:ProgramCablenut and dubble click on the file you unzipped. now click save to registry and reboot check speed again, use the 2992 KB testfile for download and 1496KB testfile upstream, also make a new tweaktest and post result good luck VanBuren
