I am using the Direcway 4000 and sharing the connection with a network using Microsoft ICS on a WinXP machine. I gained a little speed using DrTCP to change those receive settings. I am now up to around 1.4-1.6 Mbps.

Justinlay- thanks for the tip -haven't yet had a chance to try it but I will get back to you on that. Here's my upload speed from a wireless-connected client computer: yes... this is horrible. how's yours? :::.. Upload Stats ..::: Connection is: 77 Kbps about 0.1 Mbps (tested with 579 KB) Upload Speed is: 9 KB/sec Tested From:: http://www.testmy.net/ Bottom Line: 1 times faster than 56K you can upload 1MB in 113.78 second(s) Validation Link :: https://testmy.net/cgi-bin/get.cgi?Test_ID=AR7BI8XYA

Hey- it's not sad at all buddy.... cheer up. After all, you could be stuck with DirecWay satellite connection at these speeds: :::.. Download Stats ..::: Connection is:: 1029 Kbps about 1 Mbps (tested with 579 KB) Download Speed is:: 126 KB/sec Tested From:: http://www.testmy.net/ Bottom Line:: 18 times faster than 56K you can download 1MB in 8.13 second(s) Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/cgi-bin/get.cgi?Test_ID=WMDVBEJFG Believe me- I am sorely missing my speeds and paying through the nose for satellite. No cable out at the new house.

wolfbayou and justinlay- I am running DirecWay and cannot really get speeds faster than the following: :::.. Download Stats ..::: Connection is:: 1029 Kbps about 1 Mbps (tested with 579 KB) Download Speed is:: 126 KB/sec Tested From:: http://www.testmy.net/ Bottom Line:: 18 times faster than 56K you can download 1MB in 8.13 second(s) Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/cgi-bin/get.cgi?Test_ID=WMDVBEJFG I was just wondering what hardware you have connected (including anything about your send/receive modem models, your computer system, etc) and if you have changed any settings to optimize the DirecWay connection. Also, are you paying for upgraded DirecWay professional service or is this the regular home service? Thanks in advance for your reply. - I miss having cable internet SO badly, and ComCast will not run service out to our new house.
