realnerd Posted February 10, 2006 CID Share Posted February 10, 2006 Hi everyone, Lately I have been joining the tweaking community and now am looking for help for my joke of a connection, check it out. :::.. Download Stats ..::: Connection is:: 378 Kbps about 0.4 Mbps (tested with 579 kB) Download Speed is:: 46 kB/s Tested From:: https://testmy.net (server1) Test Time:: Thu Feb 09 2006 19:51:02 GMT-0600 (Central Standard Time) Bottom Line:: 7X faster than 56K 1MB download in 22.26 sec Diagnosis: May need help : running at only 41.95 % of your hosts average (direcpc.com) Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-6DUZ3PQGE This is really horrible and I was wondering if anyone had any ideas.

Bird Fan Posted February 10, 2006 CID Share Posted February 10, 2006 Welcome to the forum realnerd! What tweaks have you used? Or have you not started yet? Those speeds may be typical peak hour speeds. BTW, Direcway is having trouble on many satellites tonight... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realnerd Posted February 10, 2006 Author CID Share Posted February 10, 2006 Thanks Bird, really I've just been having fun with cablenut and messing with tips I get around here. Personally though my speeds have always been like this. Around here I have been seeing speeds over mine and I have been wanting to go higher. Well, maybe once the satellites are back to full capacity I can achieve something better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bird Fan Posted February 10, 2006 CID Share Posted February 10, 2006 I see.... maybe....I'll be right back. Also, try to post a test in the morning between 6-9 AM tomorrow. That will give you an idea of the speeds you can get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommie gorman Posted February 10, 2006 CID Share Posted February 10, 2006 Also try second post on this page, but delete cookies and files before hitting because it takes you directly to test. See you soon! Won't burst as bad as with 579 file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
