trogers Posted February 11, 2006 CID Share Posted February 11, 2006 This is the key to the problem: "Web100 reports the Round trip time = 1195.11 msec; the Packet size = 1460 Bytes; and No packet loss was observed. This connection is receiver limited 85.85% of the time. Increasing the the client's receive buffer (125.0 KB) will improve performance This connection is network limited 14.12% of the time." Something at your end (receiver) is limiting speed. This can be seen by the RTT value of 1195 ms. Under normal conditions, RTT (round trip time) should not exceed 300 ms if you are in USA. In many such cases, I will first look for line quality problem or electromagnetic interference on the signal processing devices - modem and router. Here are some interesting links of other people's experiences: http://www.testmy.net/forum/index.php?topic=11588.0 https://www.speedguide.net/read_articles.php?id=1885 https://www.speedguide.net/read_articles.php?id=117 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is DSL. Something at your end (receiver) is limiting speed. This can be seen by the RTT value of 1195 ms. Under normal conditions, RTT (round trip time) should not exceed 300 ms if you are in USA. I called Verizon to do a line check 3 weeks ago and line check came back clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trogers Posted February 11, 2006 CID Share Posted February 11, 2006 Any other electrical devices near your comp that emits EMI? A subwoofer has a hugh magnet within its casing. Even with power off, there is still magnetic effect. Keep it away from your modem and signal cables. Any other devices like cordless phone etc.?
