Thanks Rev!!! At least now I know I did get the right answer. This morning my speeds are GREAT again. This test was done at 11:00 a.m.

Sure wish it would stay that way. lol Not looking for that to happen, but would just be nice to stay halfway up there during the later day and evening. Catch ya a little later Rev, have a GREAT day and God Bless!!

Now, how did I know that I would find your lovely face in my Inbox this morning?  Hmm?  LOL..  Yes, after HEAVY testing of many frequencies and satellites last night (mine modem went off and on a total of 4 times over a period of three hours, it appears that everyone is running at their usual speeds again (and with any luck we should be able to hold our ground during the "crunch hours").  So far, at 11:24AM, my speed is holding steady at about 1000Kbps (yesterday I was crawling with about 50kbps and ready to kill small animals!  :)

You are blowing me away with your speeds so you must be blessed, or perhaps since the air is colder you are getting a better throughput.  (Air temp does make a diff believe it or not)!  I posted my speed in this forum as of 3:00AM ...then just after that I tried again and it was a bit faster.

Over the next three weeks things will be shakey though, until they get the kinks worked out of the new Server that just went online at NOC in Maryland (that doesn't like to talk to the one at the NOC in India).  heheh...  Language barrier perhaps?  :)

I pray your speeds stay steady throughout the day because if they do chances are your headaches have left you!  (Until they mess up again). Ha!

Yah, I'll be around, and may God Bless You and Yours Miss YooperLady!

*TY for keeping me posted!

Hi Rev: Well still doing the same ole crap!!! I kinda expected once it was Monday, there would be no change on my speeds! grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr I even tried your new settings, but nope didn't help. Here's my speeds at 12:30 p.m.

Miss Yooperlady!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey, that looks pretty good, but please check out my latest and greatest information Post for making it fly.  I finally worked out the mathematics and came up with a winner that put me over my limit and then some  (over 1.5Mbps)!!!!!!!

The post is called "Fastest "over limits" speeds recorded this morning - - blah blah blah ....it is about midway down on Page one of the DWay Forum, and I promise that you'll get your very fastest speed using the info provided in there ...and it won't take you more than 15 minutes tops and you'll be rockin'!!!!

Check it out, feel free to ask questions if you don't understand anything fully, then go for it!  You'll be happy that you did.  THEN post your scores AFTER 8:00PM today (if you can) using the 2992 file ....I do believe you will be pleasantly surprised!  Mine has been hold steady so it is an algorithm that Direcway's machines cannot override thus you can run at 100% of your advertised speed instead of the "old" 80% "cap."  Tr

Rev: That was after I did what you said in that post. LOL I even set it back and didn't make any difference what so ever. I am just destined to be slow I guess.  :angry5: Going to call tech support AGAIN by this evening, there is no reasoning behind why I drop from over 1000Kbps down to 269Kbps in only 3 hours. I know it's driving me nuts to say the least! We've been trying to update e-mail accounts for our resort on itsyourdomain.com and man it takes for EVER!!!! Hard to work on your resort web site with speeds like these. Thanks Rev........ :D

Miss LooperLady!

Please unplug your DW6000 for FIVE FULL MINUTES.  Then shut down your computer after you power down the 6000.  (If you have a LAN (Router), shut IT off too.  After five minutes, plug the modem in and wait until you have four light (everything except the TOP light (LAN lite), the put the power back into your Router and give it time to "balance" out, THEN fire up the ole Computer(s)  (((one at a time))) and see if that doesn't make a difference now.  I have reset your account so that it will reset itself as soon as you do all-of-the-above.

I pray this works for you.

That is looking MUCH better.  Remember that  I have a Corporate Account and so my speeds will be slightly higher (sometimes anyway) because I have a 1.5Mbps down and 256k up.  BUT ...with this new math being injected into all the machine we are using plus at direcway ...I am expecting speeds to come up slowly and steadily (hopefully they will raise the FAP too).

SUPER!

Ok Rev: Just finished what you had said to do, and doesn't seem to have helped. lol Don't think there is any great fix for me, except maybe going back to the 4000 that they can't mess with. Here's my stats at 12:30 p.m. Time to call tech support???
