Thanx alot, I really appreciate you takeing the time to pound a reply. Yes I'm aware of that quirk, I try to click quikly, and quickly I did click! g's try to typr that three times fast! I have got lots of great feedback and I'm told that this is normal for cable connections. I have had 3000/384 service for a few years and was lucky to clear 250KBs. Then Rogers dug up my street and Volia. I had never seen any home service run like that and I'm still jumping off my old 1.7 willamette, Please don't laugh... I even got one of those old 845's with through back SD's HEY! I said NO LAUGHING but seriously I'm just glad that this old girl can still chew through most of what I throw at her Anyway shouts to everybody who filled this net lagged canuck in on the squack. May I ask? what was the string that asks for a fresh copy?? As you can see I'm still windows bound, and yeah I know this makes me a dim bulb, but I'm attempting to paste myself back in the loop thanks for all the iNFO. P.S. anybody got a favorite linux dist. I should check out?

I did this several times making sure to clear the arp and temp folder. Mostly I got like the first pic, then I got th 800 or so one. Also I attached a pic of a cached run which clocked at a ridiculous 17 MBs so I don't think that's it either. Anyway thanks alot for the input! What's that string value ???

Oh Yeah, here's my test results :::..

:haha:I was told that browser speed ratings are not acurate with small files as shown in my previous posts. I was told to download a larger file, I did and sure enough I usually got about 550-650KBs which is about right, Then I went to Update nero and I got this!!! I'm on Rogers 5000/800 Hope it stays like this!!!

;)I get this kind of speed 9 out of 10 times for about the first 7-10 seconds then I slow down to a still great 550-650KBs, Thanks again for the tips.

:DThanks For the iNFO! I just wondered if this was out of the ordinary

Thanks I've had cable for years but this is new. Just wondered if this was the norm with dosis type cable nets. I've fallen out of the learning curve a couple years back and am still cachin up! (TkanKs)X2.

:DYeah mostly though spent too many hours mIRCing

Sorry I wasn't clear, I've been around the net for years IRC nntp ect. but I'm kind of new to this forum and rss type chat.

Keep saying filename exists when I try to modify post? :oops:

Any Ideas why the first few seconds are WAY above my caps (5000/800) :::..

:This is My Burst Rate for the first 5-7seconds of download I live in London Ontario and have Rogers Extreme. I am using the USB interface (Yeah I know Ive heard it but its actually faster with my connection) on a motorola sb5100 Surfboard I use standard
