Oh and welcome to the forum..... Im more of a lurker =) as you can tell by my 22 posts ..

saman33,

I dont believe that they are putting any caps on the newsgroups, as I have gotten over 14mbs down on them (this was during the week) on the weekends I seem to avg 3-6 mbs. What OS are you using? Have you used any of the tweaks on this site? I copied Halo's settings. I use newsbin which program are you using? Have you tried a tracert to the verizon newsgroup servers?

heres mine

tracert news.veriozn.net

Tracing route to news.veriozn.net [64.20.33.2]

over a maximum of 30 hops:

LOL.. I saw that *cough* .. Ahh I think it was a CO update.. now back @ 1.8 up.. You forgot the most important question.... FIOS TV...

Life is good... Hopefully its not Temporay!!

Welcome to ther Forums.... Can you get me a job @ VZ  hehehehe

My installation went fine...Im runnign through a dodgy wireless router so Im only pulling down 13 something as best as I can tell....still my online gaming has improved...I get super ping rates so far..pulling up CSS lists of servers and its page after page of sub 10 pings..1 page worth of 6 ping servers...I can play on UK servers at around 100 and change..I have been frustrated since i dont have any really huge files left to DL ..oh well I'll think of something

Yea the Pings Rock on games....... Ahh try some test downloads form the NEwsGroups...... Lots of big files out there... 

SOAHF: I live over by GHS and just got another teaser in the mail about FIOS.

no

DefaultSendwindow, keep the other settings as they are

the maximal DefaultSendwindow should be 1024 x your upload cap in KB/s

read more what each settings is here http://www.dslnuts.com/2kxp.shtml

VanBuren

So that means? 2mbs /8 = 250000 x1024 =??? 256000000 ??? Is my math right 

Plug and play... I just plugged in my xbox to the router was on live within a few...

Tweaks did not help.... Well at least on this speed test site.. Miranda was giving me 2.32 upload last night.. I will try to transfre some big files tonight to see what speed really is at.

Did you see this weeks Grapevine sun? There is a 4 page advertisement for FIOS in grapevine.. They must have most of Grapevine close to being up...

What part do you live in? I like off of Kimbal by the Lake, and have HAd fios since the end of Jan.

There are a few diferences.. I changed them to copy halo's .. my download went to 15.4.. upload still 1.7..still working on that =)

thank you Ronnie. I just found this board last night. All myu

Counterstrike went from an avg of 20-30 ping (on cable) to 10-15. When doing server searches I come back now with 50+ servers under 10 ping. never saw that low before. I can play counter strike on my PC while my son plays HALO2 on the xbox still stays in the lower teens.

My install went great... They came out the day before and dug up the yard. HEH.. My yard you cannot tell the 3 houses next to me have a line gong through their yard. No damage.. The tech showed up toward the end of the time window, but they called so no big deal. The Tech did not want to crawl through my attic (floor not boarded) so of course I did the wire pulling. Besides that all was well. They basicall y did what I wanted.. I installed the software(MSN premium not wanted). They even place the FIOS sign in my yard while working so I could harass the neighbors.. All in All great experience.. Ever since no issues .. well I'm running out of Hard drive space (minor issue)...
