Brownie2k2001 Posted April 11, 2006 CID Share Posted April 11, 2006 Ok, i've just done the tweaks in my registry supplied by ROM-DOS http://www.testmy.net/forum/t-9452.0 (had the thread in favourites), and i just did a speed test and got.... :::.. Download Stats ..::: Connection is:: 8962 Kbps about 8.96 Mbps (tested with 5983 kB) Download Speed is:: 1094 kB/s Tested From:: https://testmy.net (Server 1) Test Time:: 2006/04/11 - 10:10am Bottom Line:: 156X faster than 56K 1MB Download in 0.94 sec Tested from a 5983 kB file and took 5.469 seconds to complete Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; .NET CLR 1.0.3705; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; Media Center PC 4.0; .NET CLR 2.0.50727) Diagnosis: Awesome! 20% + : 267.45 % faster than the average for host (co.uk) Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-1XKNGWE5Y I Thought it was a fluke test, so i used CCleaner to clean everything, and the same kind of result.... I'm wondering if any of them tweaks could have boosted my download to the point of breaking it's cap lol?? The max i've ever had is 6.38mbps.... Dunno whether to be jumping for joy or thinking there is a problem lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brownie2k2001 Posted April 11, 2006 Author CID Share Posted April 11, 2006 I'm getting results in the region of 6.8 - 7.5mb now.... not complaining though!! Must be a quiet time for my DSL provider, who knows? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j3grizz Posted April 11, 2006 CID Share Posted April 11, 2006 What time of day did you run the tests. And yes with the right tweaks you can go over your cap. I am over my cap as well. Do this if you are still unsure. Download a large file from the net Microsoft or anyone and see what you final DL speed is. Then compare it to the test. testmy.net is usually the most accurate test for me and I have probably tried them all. Welcome to the forum Brownie2k2001.

amc11890 Posted April 11, 2006 CID Share Posted April 11, 2006 Usually going over your cap is most popular with cable versus dsl but i have seen people go over cap on dsl but not as often as cable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommie gorman Posted April 11, 2006 CID Share Posted April 11, 2006 Welcome to the forum Brownie2k2001 If the test seems a little high, run a second test immediatly. The second might be more real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brownie2k2001 Posted April 11, 2006 Author CID Share Posted April 11, 2006 Thanks for the welcome guys I've done a few more tests, and there between 6.4 through 7.1mbps... which does tie in with the speeds i get from downloading off Microsoft and some other servers Am happy about that, i was only getting 4mb - 5mb before all the tweaks!!
