geeeeez i am not THAT noob...i know what kb and mb are....but WHATS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN KB/s and KBPS/s and it the same?? doesnt both of that means the same....KB/s=kilobyte per second...........KBPS/s=kilobyte per second per second

yeah its noob....typo....and whats the diff between KB/s and Kbps/s ????? aint it the same? im using bitspirit

lets say im using bittorent......my upload speed can actually go up to 300plus???? it never got up more than 40kbps though

Ok Van Buren i have changed to 10 mbps half duplex.....so if i cant get 5-6mbps from the server.....on your opinion ...whats the speed i should be getting from here? and if i used the 6000/384 cablenut setting......will it affect anything?? like if i choose higher....would it lower down my download n upload speed?
