Hi guys, After doing various speed test thru out the day. I realized that my Verizon speed fluctuates from 100KB to 1400 Kb. During the 11-3 pm the speed is very good around 500-1400KB. But as the day progesses... it dies down and by 6pm till late night it is at a depressing 100-200KB. Is this a problem strictly on Verizon's end or can anything be done on my side?? Thanks.

HI can you elaborate on how I would check step "C". How do I know if my telephone line is bad??

I followed most of the steps on that guide already. Sadly to say nothing works.. for me =(

Thank you for the input, I am currently at work now, but I cant wait to go home and try it out. Most likely the problem seems to be on Verizon's end. Besides the TCP Optimizer is there any other program that works in conjunction with DSL to improve the connection speed?

I have the 1.5 MB because I just upgraded it 3 months ago. Modem is Westell wirespeed 2100. I am from NYC, Brooklyn 11230 Using a PPPoE And no router.. I am connecting straight to the modem. Lastly how do I replace the LAN line?? The one that runs from the outside.. would I have to call a service guy to do it? Is it free? Has anyone called their LAN line provider for a replacement before? Thanks

Hi everyone sorry for being a noob at this but ever since I had Verizon for 2 years now, my speed has never reach over 800 KB Recently (5 days now) I have been getting speeds of on average 150 KB. This cant be normal. I have the 1.5 MB package, running on XP, P4 2.8 GHz, 512 ram. I have updated all windows patches, boot the PC cleanly, updated my NIC drivers, tested all the wires, uninstalled all the unneeded LAN protocols, and even attempted to the use the TCP optimizer to tweak the connection speed. Nothing seems to work. Is there a chance my actual LAN line is faulty? Results from speed test: :::..
