Here is an update. I had to contact MCI and have them force a new firmware version to my TA (VOIP). I don't know how long this will last....but I will use it while I have it. Here are the current results. It seems as though it was the TA all along. Thank you to everyone that replied to my situation. :::..

Anyone else have any ideas that I can try? Thanks for all of your help.....

That link doesn't work for me.

Its on auto. I changed it to 10baseT (it was the only option I had that you listed). It actually made it worse (128kbs down). Is there a way to test my modem? I am also having troubles with active x. I went to the PCpitstop website and tried to test the active x and it told me it wasn't supported (using IE 6). I have checked everything in the internet options. Thanks

The only router I have is the TA that MCI sent me for the VOIP.

No I haven't change any settings....BTW would I go about doing that....Thanks

BTW Thanks for your help:)

Help....please..I just got VOIP from MCI. My ISP is Cox. I used to connect at 4.1mps. Now it connects at around 700kps. My upload is almost as fast as my download. I called both MCI and Cox. Cox told me that there was a 15% loss and someone would come out sometime thursday. MCI said that with a max pause greater than 150ms they couldn't help with (my is somewhere between 250 and 1800). I just did a reformat Windows ME and the only thing I added was Dr.TCP (to raise my Tcp Receive Window to 50000). I am not even running my firewall right now. Below are the results from the download and upload on here. Any help would be greatly appreciated. :::..
