@ qwertyu I advise you to uninstall deepfreeze first when you tweak your speed, deepfreeze will ALWAYS restore your pre-tweak settings when you restart/turn-off/on your PC. Deep Freeze serves as a shield to changes in the system as advertised in their website: "Deep Freeze is the standard in bulletproof disk protection Deep Freeze instantly protects and preserves baseline computer configurations. No matter what changes a user makes to a workstation, simply restart to eradicate all changes and reset the computer to its original state - right down to the last byte. Expensive computer assets are kept running at 100% capacity and technical support time is reduced or eliminated completely. The result is consistent trouble-free computing on a truly protected and parallel network, completely free of harmful viruses and unwanted programs." Use TCP Opt or a combination of tcpip.sys patch and Cable Nut. If you're really a Deepfreeze fan, re-install it right after you obtain a satisfactory smartbro speed

no problem. message me up. i'll be waiting. thanks!

don't you worry, its normal. smartbro speed (coz it's wi-fi) is intermittent. I recommend to you this forum: http://www.testmy.net/t-18616.0

wow! i hope it will work for others too days from now i will post what i did to obtain the 600+ kbps speed. for the meantime, me & the rest of the guys here will do our best to answer questions that will help speed up your smart bro.

it's been a long time we haven't heard from the thread starter elijahpaul. i hope he can provide updates too

so far i have tried norton 2007, avg av & as, now I'm on nod32. somehow the latter reduced my speed but on a minimal level. for newbies reading this forum, here's how to tweak your speed: http://www.testmy.net/t-18616.615 read and read...you will get helpful tips from the rest of the guys here.

@ jun101ph can we possibly make an arrangement of your sending me a canopy default/override plug, if you have any? coz i'm having a hard time finding an RJ-11 6-pin connector.

hahaaaa. yes you are right @jun101ph! i was a little pre occupied of something lolz. so @ grift3r74, are you ready to climb to the roof?

MTU = 1500

Its simple: Command Prompt Type ipconfig/all Your physical address is your Mac address Forget about climbing to your roof

right. thanks

thanks. can u recommend a website which will give us an accurate hex to decimal conversion?

kudos! welcome to the 400+ club

@jun101ph I wanted to help a friend. She wants to access the canopy using the Mac (physical) Address. Do u have a post relative to this?

If you still can access your canopy, try to reset it to factory settings (NOT RECOMMENDED though), kinda risky but if there's a need to eliminate the "other's account" setting, make the default/override plug and you can make your own account (username, password). click here for how-to's http://www.testmy.net/t-18617

i don't recommend speedtesting with the Quezon City server. remember that the server sponsor and SmartBro are direct competing companies. if your really love speedtest try the Miri (Malaysia) Server. of course our first choice should be a test with testmy.net!

that is absolutely correct. SmartBro can't give us even 1 mbps unless we enrol to a higher plan. On the other hand, what I suspect with the sudden drop of your speed is that there might have been a remote re-configuration of your canopy settings. but i could be wrong. well, 1st thing's first. try what jun101ph suggested.

@EKANS I think TCP Optimizer can do it alone. If you're still on it, slide it from 384 kbps up to 3000 kbps then choose what slider setting gave you better speed. What I suggested (insistently) that a combination of tcpip.sys patch and CableNut would work. you can try setting it to 50 then do a speed test. if not working, do the same to 80 and 100 but give a gap of at least a day for each setting, have patience. the connection type is self-explanatory. if your on a router then use DSL with Router (MTU=1492). if your canopy module cable is directly connected to your lan card, then use Cable or DSL - Always On (MTU=1500).

oh well congratulations! its nice that you are back!

@ heavenandhell have you tried doing some "system restore"?. try to revert system back to a time before your lan card speed setting screwed up.

It's always a pleasure. I encourage you to try all options until you get a satisfactory result. Update: I am now in the process of finding out which anti virus system slows down Smart Bro's speed. Will be posting (in a separate thread) my observations in 3-4 weeks time. BTW @ gourame, I have not heard from jun101ph lately...what happened to him?

All these tweaking gave me positive results take a look

Yes. There will be NO conflict. One more thing, I was suggesting a separate option in my recent post. Please take note that I have not mentioned the TCP Optimizer (scroll above). This is because, in my own observation, CableNut functions well if there's the tcpip.sys patch as prerequisite. However, Im not saying that CableNut is better that TCP Optimizer. Its just that for a month now, the tcpip.sys patch & CableNut did well for me. But of course you can try the options. 1) TCP Optimizer only. 2) tcpip.sys patch and Cablenut. 3) Use all. It's your choice. Observe which formula gave you faster speed. If the problem is the base station, email SmartBro customer service about your problem. They respond faster in email than in their tollfree line (where most often nobody answers the call).

your upload is high. download should be higher. an ideal upload speed is 80% of your download. tweak your canopy & use cablenut.

yeah, the old version is simple and safe. we know that new programs have bugs unless it is declared as stable.
