Guest Tedzepplin Posted June 19, 2006 CID Share Posted June 19, 2006 I have direcPC for years now and I have always disliked it. I think they lie like crazy to their customers, but unfortunately, I live in a very rural area, I have no other options. I consider this the price I pay to have no neighbors for miles and miles Anyhow, I just switched to the new DW 7000, and wondered if anyone had any tweaks they could send me. :::..

tommie gorman Posted June 19, 2006 CID Share Posted June 19, 2006 Let's see, how did ROM-DOS say this. You have to work it. I just use the above TCP Optimizer settings, and keep it clean. But no, it does not work on large files, that way. But pages load nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommie gorman Posted June 21, 2006 CID Share Posted June 21, 2006 Hey Tedzepplin and kol, check those speeds on Sat. morning. They might be faster, it takes a couple of days to set in real good. Post back a speed test then, if you would. And kol, try the 2992 test file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
