Sacrifist

this is ugly, but i cant change the MTU. Could someone make me a cablenut setting for this? Also, I hang on your speed test after it finishes the test so i cant post results. speeds are supposed to be 1MB down and .5MB up not getting close to that

ya, its not a router issue. Maybe someone could make him a cablenut file.

my speedtest are about the same as before, just hope this ccs file gives more stability. There was improvements made here though in the RTT Web100 reports the Round trip time = 205.64 msec; the Packet size = 1410 Bytes; and There were 28 packets retransmitted, 95 duplicate acks received, and 0 SACK blocks received The connection stalled 2 times due to packet loss The connection was idle 0.86 seconds (8.6%) of the time This connection is network limited 99.97% of the time. Excessive packet loss is impacting your performance, check the auto-negotiate function on your local PC and network switch

my mtu is 1450, my isp said they set it up that way

na, that isnt it. Went down that road already

sorry i havent posted my speeds, my isp is coming out tomorrow because my connection is having serious issues. Is there anything on my end that could be causing me not to be able to connect to any servers in Steam, or ftps. I dont have any firewalls running and according to my isp, they arent using one either. I could connect the first 2 days I had this new connection but since then I cannot get into servers. Just wondering if its something Im missing before their tech comes out tomorrow

hmm, still at 1450. Im not using any router either

actually after running the speedguide tcp/ip analyzer it says my mtu is 1450. How do I go about changing that?

what is the best .ccs file for a 1.4 meg down speed and a 700 kB/sec up speed for a wireless dsl connection?

its the best, all you ff and ie users should try it and put the ie skin or ff skin on it to better suit your needs. My opera looks just like firefox but runs so much faster and smoother. Its just a better browsing experience. The best feature for me is that it can zoom webpages, even be set as a default. This is key for me with my 1920 x 1200 resolution. Firefox 1.5 is nice and all but I keep going back to opera. It doesnt use as much resources as ff either.

opera .

ya i am hoping for upload increase as well

your upload looks about right

well, perhaps your cache isnt cleared. But on a good note, my friend who works for mediacom said they are planning on going to 10 Mbps downspeed and he wasnt sure about the up speed

if they are movies just get vcdgear and convert them to vcds then you should have no problem putting them on a dvd disc, but if they arent movies then i dont know what to use

Um, no, your al beating me :::..

Oh Jeez, cry me a river...My only availble option is .5 meg down and .3 meg up. I would love to have any cable service that has more then 256k upload and over 3 meg down. Be happy you get the speeds that you get, as for us boys in the country, it is only a dream.

to solve your avi to dvd problem why not take out the hassle of converting and just go to wal mart and buy a phillips dvp642 dvd player for 57$. It will play almost anything you throw in it. The only thing that wont work is a bin file. It plays everything else including a dvd full of avis or other formats. It is worth every penny.

well alright guess i wont partition it then

it is just for storage and backup, but i would like to have three partitions of generally the same size

I just got a 250 gb external drive and it was prefomatted as one big partition. My question is , do i have to reformat the drive to make partitions or should i just get partition magic. I dont want to put anything on it until i have it partitioned.

If you have the space to share at least 20 gig, is by far and away Direct Connect plus plus. You name it, it has it. No crapware to go with it either....Kazaa, limewire, and winmx is nothing but crapware loaded with more crapware...I remember the day that I spent many hours figuring out how to remove all the kazaa crap off my puter, is was such a ball. But it does have good speeds, if you actually get the right file.
