xs1 Posted January 8, 2005 CID Share Posted January 8, 2005 here ya go http://ttester.broadbandreports.com/tweak/block:4327816?service=cable&speed=1000&os=Mac&via=normal thanks .....ouch. I can honestly say that iv never seen one this bad before. Van, if you could make a custom cablenut setting, with these settings enabled that is needed here, that would improve this connectiion massively methinks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
resopalrabotnick Posted January 8, 2005 CID Share Posted January 8, 2005 well, the tech may have told you to call for a reason, i'd say you grab a sandwhich and wait out the hold, they may want to have you fiddle with their gear, meaning that the chat would die, making it impossible to give instructions. i mean, the guy /asked/ you to call. that would give me hope that they at least have an idea of what the prob may be.

shapiro Posted January 8, 2005 Author CID Share Posted January 8, 2005 Is there a program similar to cablenut that is available for mac? And if not then how can i get it to work throgh my windows pc which is also on the network. Can i do the tweak program through the wireless router or does it have to be connected directly to the modem? I will try calling again later today. Hopefully the wait times will be less. thanks for your help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shapiro Posted January 8, 2005 Author CID Share Posted January 8, 2005 You mean i need to tweak all of the computers on the network that i want to have a faster upload speed? That sounds kind of messy...i used to get great upload speeds. I believe this is a problem with the modem or OOL though based on what i have tried. I have heard people say that their upload speed was capped by their ISP becaise they were using file sharing, perhaps this is the case? I'll call them sometime today and try to find out. anyhow, if i do need to tweak all of the computers on my network, how would I go about doing that? What program do you reccomend for mac and what tweak settings should I use? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shapiro Posted January 8, 2005 Author CID Share Posted January 8, 2005 hmm...my mtu was already 1500, and i have no idea what selective acks are. I dont know what rwin is either and i dont see anything that i can change in the program other than what is shown in the screenshot. it also said on the test that upload packet was less than mtu and 1 second stall detected, and i have no idea what to do about either of these.
