cool Reverend i cant say ive seen any big diff in speed on my system with that defragger but it should work for normal systems, my system usally runs in slowmotion no matter what tweaks i use hehe i think i will get Diskeeper Pro too someday, now im still saving my money for a hardware upgrade, should happen pretty soon unless some more important expenses shows up .... VanBuren

Thats the same thing as The Reverend suggested, he suggested to use the value windows recommend and that happens to be 1,5 x your RAM quote from http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;308417#31 "For best performance, do not set the initial size to less than the minimum recommended size under Total paging file size for all drives. The recommended size is equivalent to 1.5 times the RAM on your computer. It is good practice to leave the paging file at its recommended size. However, you may increase its size if you frequently use programs that use much memory." i also agree to move the swapfile to the fastest disc or partition VanBuren

hey cholla no thread will be locked for getting too long, atleast i wont lock any thread for that the reason i locked the other thread is, that there is no reason to start a new thread about uploadspeed, since we already talking about it in this thread. VanBuren

no need for a new thread thread is closed VanBuren

a 77 Kbps upload on 56k dial up seems too good to be true maybe its burst i dunno VanBuren

that was odd, well lets try this, change TcpWindowSize and GlobalMaxTcpWindowSize to 256960, also set Default TTL to 64 now click save to registry and try again both against testmy.net and speakeasy VanBuren

Im not really sure how it work, but it suppose to speed up the system http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/pagedefrag.shtml quote " One of the limitations of the Windows NT/2000 defragmentation interface is that it is not possible to defragment files that are open for exclusive access. Thus, standard defragmentation programs can neither show you how fragmented your paging files or Registry hives are, nor defragment them. Paging and Registry file fragmentation can be one of the leading causes of performance degradation related to file fragmentation in a system. PageDefrag uses advanced techniques to provide you what commercial defragmenters cannot: the ability for you to see how fragmented your paging files and Registry hives are, and to defragment them. In addition, it defragments event log files and Windows 2000/XP hibernation files (where system memory is saved when you hibernate a laptop). PageDefrag works on Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Server 2003." VanBuren

make a tracert to testmy.net start-run type cmd and hit enter type tracert testmy.net and hit enter right click copy all and paste it here also test speed here http://chi.speakeasy.net/ and post result VanBuren

Closer to God A 70-year-old man went to the doctor's for a physical. The doctor ran some tests and said to the man, "Well, everything seems to be in top condition physically, but what about mentally? How is your connection with God?" And the man answered, "Oh me and God? We have a really tight bond, he's so good to me. Every night when I have to get up to go to the bathroom, he turns on the light for me, and then, when I leave, he turns it back off." The Doctor was astonished. He called the man's wife and said, "I'd like to speak to you about your husband's connection with God. He claims that every night when he needs to use the restroom, God turns on the light for him and turns it off for him again when he leaves. Is this true?" And she said, "That idiot, he's been peeing in the refrigerator!" VanBuren

yea very nice indeed, i now use it as desktop background VanBuren

very good tip Reverend! I also use that, i can also recommend to defrag your hardrives often, and use this pagefile defragger VanBuren

this can only be seen as a good grade of the site and im glad your hard work with the site CA3LE, pays off VanBuren

very nice indeed talk to The Reverend, he might give you even faster speed also try the 2992 KB download test and compare VanBuren

yea that can be one reason, and very nice indeed I seen higher DW 6000 scores, but with small testfiles thats not accurate the 2992 KB file is very accurate in this speed VanBuren

yeah !!! :lol: :lol: VanBuren

that 4469 Kbps score is made from Qwest Communications do they have sat? VanBuren

hey flywhiteguy and welcome to the forum download vanburens_cablenut_setting_2versions.zip https://testmy.net/forum/index.php?topic=1013.0 unzip it to C:ProgramCablenut open cablenut adjuster, click delete cablenut tweaks + save to registry in top left corner you see file, load custom settings file, browse to C:ProgramCablenutvanburens_cablenut_settings_version_2VanBurens cablenut settings Version 2WinXP_2K_CABLE_DSLMSS1460 dubble click on Cable & DSL 3000 384.ccs (assume you have a 384 Kbps upload cap) now click save to registry again reboot your pc good luck VanBuren

I used to allow ICMP but then i got problems with hackers portscanning me all the time, i now block all ICMP traffic and have almost no attacks. VanBuren

yea i bet alot of ppl would still have their job if they used this tool VanBuren

ill try it out, anything that clean up abit in my pc can only be a good thing hehe VanBuren

very good post Revend this is definitely something to keep in mind VanBuren

no problem Its really hard to tell, some routers almost dosent bring down speed at all, but its depending on distance check out this thread about routers https://testmy.net/forum/index.php?topic=1127.0 i have never used a router myself, so there is alot of ppl better then me to recommend one VanBuren

no problem, happy surfing i assumed you had a 384 Kbps upload cap, but it might be 256 Kbps so you can try the Cable & DSL 3000 256.ccs instead you dont need to do it, if you think it works fine now if you do choose to test it, then follow same steps as in my earlyer post, just choose this file instead VanBuren

yea that was the tweaktest, try this speedtest too http://nyc.speakeasy.net/ VanBuren
