CA3LE is the man

If adelphia or any cable provider for that matter would move everything to the digital spectrum, then there would be a gigantic space for more speed. But I don't think we'll say antyhing like that until, 2009 i think i saw on BBR. and by then DOCSIS 3.0 will be the standard so...

Good to see your upgrade went well Jordan

thanks for the codec links, found out the problem was the Video Acceleration, knocked it back, smooth sailing.

I already have the DivX package, but thanks for the links to the codec's, ill post back and let you know if it helped. Thanks!

Re-Do your download with a larder test size. But judging by your upload speed, your should be able to upgrade to the 3.0/768 package. You may not be able to get full speeds, but like I said, judging from your upload, your line can handle more. But yes, your upload is very good for your package price. Congrats

Hey guys, i just formatted my PC, and now, say, i try and watch a DVD on my computer, no matter what player i use, its all, white. Anyone know what codec i need? I already have xVid.

Hey Tyrant1. Welcome to testmy.net, make sure to tell all your friends about it. Now, post some info about your setup. Do you have a router? If so, how many other computers are on your network, could be one of those is now hogging the bandwidth. But, heres a tip: Download CableNut, check the post in the Make it Faster section, by VB. Then get VB's CableNut settings, and in CN, Go to File>Open Custom Settings File, browse the folders until you find vanburen's CABLE_FIBER_DSLPPPOE_5000/384. Its named something like that. Any more help, just ask!

I have 0. I just formatted:)

keys are the same, as far as i know, thats the one right there. Oh and dont try to install vista overtop Windows XP Pro. I had to format last night, but at least im getting better speeds now:D

Just one question. How much is that monthly?

Call them up, ask if your are eligible and what they say your distance is. If you are eligible, ask them to upgrade you, if they give you a price over, say 29.99, ask them if you could get the price if you renewed your contract(1 year). if not, threaten to cancel and see what they do for you then.

I did after i posted, Jordan, read my first post again. and check out FallowEarth's post. My bad PHP, lol

hey jordan, how ya doin! Are you PPPoE or DHCP? It looks if your running at PPPoE your about as good as your going to get. Call verizon and ask if your on Interleave or Fastpath, if on Interleave, asked to be changed. Go to http://www.broadbandreports.com/prequal/distance and see if you can get a distance check. If your under 13000 call verizon and ask to be upgraded to 1.5/384 See if you can get a new firmware upgrade for your Router. Just a little info, your download is 85% of your advertised speed, your upload is at 104% of your advertised. It looks like your line can handle more. Hope this helps!

Its still too damn much, i dont think we should shelf the space program at all, I support Nasa and what they do 110.3%. But I just think its too much money.

Too Damn Much

I want the new 56k tier:D

Thank Ya

Can anyone tell me if letting my modem off for 12-24 hours and let it get a different ip in a different range, would fix problems im having on a router? Specific Router is pa-blairsville2b-14.pit.adelphia.net

If you are getting the same speed as u were with your old connection speed before the upgrade, there is something wrong. Some ideas would be here, your internal wiring is old and corroded and could need replaced. Although the problem is most likely this: You are too far out from your CO or RT to be recieving anything better. Verizon probably had their heads up their a$$ when they told you that you could recieve the upgrade and it would increase your speed. Just my 2 cents.

Dont listen to OLDJIMMYBONES, but there is something definately wrong.

Wow....

i think this is a good idea I think it could be better if everyone submitted one question so thay way you can get a very broad range of questions for the quiz.

its about 21 million I believe

Before, when running a trace route to testmy.net with the modem directly connected, the tracert times out, however, when connected through a router, the tracert works fine. Is this supposed to be that way, I thought it should be timing out when behind a router. Anyone else have this?
