Okay I'll post back after I have time to make all the changes,, I have a domain controller setup, so I'll need to take this machine out of the domain before I reboot and connect directly to the modem.. Thanks for the help so far, I really appreciate it.

The pathping brought me back to the prompt, so I assumed it was done.. I re-did it though and I see what you mean.. weird that the other one stopped right after it showed the hops.. Unfortunately, connecting directly to the cable modem will take a bit of work.. I'll have to do that bit later if the following info does not shed any light.

Thanks for the advice and the welcome! Okay, I rmade the changes with cablenut and rebooted the PC.. I also recycled the power to the modem.. I did that a few times over the last 24 hours , but just to keep pace with your instructions, I did it again.. The download here was a lot better, but still way lower than it should be. :::..

Ahh the line test is totally down on dslreports... no ETA on when it will be fixed.

Thanks for the replies... Here is the tweak test.. the line test seems to be to busy right now.. I'll keep trying it and post the results once I get in.. I bought some points there, but it is taking some time to activate... 1.

I have no extra protocols installed and my nic is set to 100 full duplex. There is no spyware and no viruses and currently no firewall service running or even installed.. I ran ccleaner and cablenut with the file Vanburen posted specifically for another roadrunner premium user.. I turned off UPnP on the router, but I suspect it is something there that is slowing me down. I was able to get up around 3124 down this morning, but that is the highest it has been... I just upgraded to the Premium service yesterday, but these speeds are lower than what I should have gotten with even the basic service. I have been reading though the forums since last night looking for anything that would be pertinent to my situation, but I have not found anything. Any help from you guys would be much appreciated!
