Just ask VanBuren about those speeds, hes got the 100mb down and 10mb up connection in his country, that just shows that america is far behind in the speeds.

Who on here uses wireless and who on here uses wired and what are your speeds and who are you with??? I myself spend most of my time on my wireless laptop and she has a wireless laptop as well and we do have a main pc thats wired but i mainly use that for our server for pushing and storing large data. I have Midcontinent for my ISP www.midcocomm.com and i have there midco max package which is unrestricted down and 512 up.

You must have there lowest package, i thought all they offered was 5000/245 and 10000/1000

Yeah i guess your right, i can remember just a few years ago when i was on dialup back in 1998 through 2002 now that really sucked lol waiting an hour just to download a 16 meg file or even 20 min just to download a song lol So yeah looking back at that I dont think that none of us should complain about our speeds assuming that most everybody on the net now has some sort of high speed. I can remeber when i was so excited of getting the dual ISDN line a whole 128kb lol smoking lol

Thats wierd since my router is set at the default 1500 I think I am comming to the conclusion that those sites are in accurate.

One site says one thing and the other site says another lol

Ok I ran that and heres the link for the results, i did disable the autotune and re-enabled it http://www.dslreports.com/tweakr/block:12f363e?service=cable&speed=20000&os=Vista&via=normal

when did u take those speed tests from verizon?

I am just suprised that since vistas been in beta for a long time that no one was developed software to boost your tcp/ip settings

VanBuren just out of curiousity i did a traceroute to you ISP and i you do one to my ISP midcocomm.com I would appreciate it.

wow you have alot of icons on your desktop lol

Yeah the best would be to use your readings the your bios gives you.

Ok well thanks for putting some light on this matter, i knew they offered boost but didnt know it would boost them up that much, i guess it would be really nice downloading 20 mb files in a blink of an eye lol hey im stuck at 512 upload Your connection is: 443 Kbps or 0.4 Mbps You uploaded at: 54 kB/s You are running: 8 times faster than 56K and can upload 1 megabyte in 18.96 second(s) Member Ident:Username:bryanlautt CompID:2221126229 Test Time:: 2007/03/18 - 12:07am Test Browser and OS info: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 6.0; SLCC1; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.04506; InfoPath.2) Test ID: 9A3DNJ5OG (if this is a screenshot go to testmy.net to see if this is fake) Diagnosis ^info^: Awesome! 20% + : 77.91 % faster than the average for host (midco.net) This was tested from a 748 kB file and took 13.828 seconds to complete

I dont see how you are running that fast when Comcast doesnt even offer those speeds

dont think it changed anything

Of course your upload is as fast as my download lol

Im not running no tweaks on my Vista and the download seems to be ok and of course my upload isnt large enough to matter lol

i dont have to worry about it with my wireless router is plenty of speed.

lol isnt that the truth lol

Actually P4's run cooler then AMDs

Right up my alley, well if your not an overclocker then just about any brand would be good for your processor just as long as its for your AMD. Actually your better off ordering your heatsink and fan from AMD just so your warranty will not void by putting on other heat sink and fans that are not approved by AMD. Would hate to burn your chip up and then out of luck becuase you used a component that wasnt AMD approved. Most important thing is stay away from the paste. putting to much on is not good and putting to little on is not good. If your not an avid system builder then just stick with the thermal pads.

I like it alot. Alot more secure and what i think is that i am really supprised that all the hackers havent exploited alot more wholes as like they did when XP first came out. I think Microsoft are finally going on the right track after all these years, especially since they have like 90 percent of the market lol. It would be interesting how linix would do if they had 90 percent of the market and how many holes would be found. lol

How many of you know that Midcontinent and Comcast are Partners.
