trogers Posted February 5, 2006 CID Share Posted February 5, 2006 So NTLI is your gateway to the US. Since your ISP is behind a firewall, testmy can only use the last know address in their test report. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scumbucketsex Posted February 5, 2006 Author CID Share Posted February 5, 2006 ok, anything else i can do to improve my broadband download speeds now or we out of ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trogers Posted February 5, 2006 CID Share Posted February 5, 2006 I am out of idea. But I still suspect someone may be tapping your line. If you are staying in a hostel or apartment, this can be a possibility. Maybe you can do a visual check of the telephone wiring from the mains and up to your room. If I have any new ideas I will message you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scumbucketsex Posted February 5, 2006 Author CID Share Posted February 5, 2006 thanks, i am living in a brand new house, so mayb new phone line a problem? i just checked my broadband diagnostics and got this: speed [up/down]: 288/1.152kbps cant work out how come my downloads dont equal this, where is it all going?....

trogers Posted February 5, 2006 CID Share Posted February 5, 2006 That is what troubling me. Your test report points to high latency 500-600 ms. This usually shows a problem with the line. But your tracert is normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scumbucketsex Posted February 5, 2006 Author CID Share Posted February 5, 2006 could it just be a bad phone line?or because the tracert is normal does that rule out the bad phone line? ive just checked my firewall and internet activites, nothing out of the ordinary on there, nothing coming in or out, very confusing!!

trogers Posted February 5, 2006 CID Share Posted February 5, 2006 I would check the phone line and also look out for water or snow affecting junction boxes. Or electrical or magnetic devices near your phone lines too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scumbucketsex Posted February 5, 2006 Author CID Share Posted February 5, 2006 i'll have a fiddle, but all downloads and my settings are all correct now tho yeh? so either something interfearing wih the net or bad phone lines yeh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trogers Posted February 5, 2006 CID Share Posted February 5, 2006 If your latency goes to normal (meaning not more than 300 ms), you need to use my original ccs file. The last adjustment is to compensate for the high latency. You can try pinging your ISP 4-5 times and note if there are wide fluctuations in latency. A single test may not be indicative..

trogers Posted February 5, 2006 CID Share Posted February 5, 2006 Go to DOS and ping www.________ using your ISP's website address. Do this a few times. within 15 mins and see if yu get large differences in ping time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trogers Posted February 5, 2006 CID Share Posted February 5, 2006 One other way is to call your ISP to send a tech down to your home to test line quality. Your present settings has not improve much. Still at 0.4 Mbps speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
