a tracert shows what "road" you choose to travel on to reach a specific server. It display the latency (ping) to each router in the path, the router acts like crossroads. sometimes a router can be overloaded with traffic, then you will see the ping goes sky high, but you cant be 100% sure, cos sometimes routers deprior ICMP packets (packets used to measuse ping). I bet you can find a better explaination at google VanBuren

With a nice route you could get up to 4 Mbps, but normal around 1-2 Mbps the number of hops killing the speed I drop down to around 6 Mbps against NY, eve if my record is over 9 Mbps lol VanBuren

right click choose all text and copy VanBuren

heya DJVageli I think you can get more from my server since you are in NY, try again in a few hours, im on DC++ and have some random uploading aswell VanBuren

a tip, dont call your ISP and complain about upload cos then they probl see what they did yea im very spoiled with speed now, i never missed this when i was on 512kbps cable but now i cant go back hehe VanBuren

i guess someone at your ISP set up your cap in hes sleep when he re-install it and put you on 5 Mbps cap instead of 3 lol VanBuren

It usally tells where the bottleneck is, when a nod is overloaded ping goes skyhigh lets see how it looks like when he post at peak time. VanBuren

Hey Michael and welcome to the forum sounds like a good deal tnx for sharing it, ive seen alot of ppl having performance problems with routers. Maybe we should make a blacklist hehe what do you think? Vanburen

133.5 % of advertised, not bad VanBuren

funny i heard it was reversed VanBuren

hey Braver and welcome to the forum make a tracert to testmy.net both during peak time, and one with no peak go to start-run type cmd and hit enter type tracert testmy.net and hit enter copy the text and paste it here so we can see it Also make a speedtest at Non peak hours. VanBuren

hey FoxHound and welcome to the forum That kinda language is NOT tolerated in this forum, so i snipped your post. VanBuren

omg thats some quality of service 161,5 % of advertised, do we have a record? VanBuren

hey rayray and welcome to the forum what is your cap? and what uploadspeeds to you have? VanBuren

I think your right, its probl modem slowing you down. either you got the upgrade or you havent, no middle stages. but since you have increase upstream i think you got it delivered. VanBuren

I think there is a setting for that in BIOS, you should be able to run faster RAM then your FSB. VanBuren

agreed VanBuren

thats sweet but probl alot of burst in that score use the 3 Mbps test only, its most accurate VanBuren

Nice VanBuren

hey bighawk and welcome to the forum above your advertised, smile what do you have on 3 MB test? VanBuren

1+2+3.) Cos ping plotters like these are Very Inaccurate when it comes to location of a certain router. I have seen routers located in sweden, but on a ping plotter it shows its located in US... VanBuren
