Guest wmmc Posted January 11, 2005 CID Share Posted January 11, 2005 Welcome to the forum. Try the larger test, 2992 one. Looks like your Satmex 5, good signal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wmmc Posted January 11, 2005 CID Share Posted January 11, 2005 As for the proxy how? why? No idea about the DW6000. Hold on for The Reverend, I think he knows a little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Reverend Posted January 11, 2005 CID Share Posted January 11, 2005 Hey there Wizdoms^! As I was explaining to you in the other posts about you still using ICS along with your DW6000, you'll get far better speeds (around 1000Fbps) if you ditch ICS and let your Router act as your DHCP Server (even though the 6000 has it's own ...it is 'barebones' so you'll fair better with a REAL router.
