foofighter Posted July 18, 2006 CID Share Posted July 18, 2006 OMG! I just finished a flat copy of XP and I was getting evething working again. I just finished getting everthing back to normal and decided to see how my new Cable modem and Netgrear router were working. I don't know what to make of these scores, can that be right? I'm almost afraid to fire up my P2P program. I might hurt someone. Any input on these scores would be great! :::..

coknuck Posted July 18, 2006 CID Share Posted July 18, 2006 foofighter welcome to the forum. Some times firewalls and web excelerators give you a false test.

dlewis23 Posted July 18, 2006 CID Share Posted July 18, 2006 Thanks for your your help on narrowing down the problem! What might be wrong with my cache, is there a link to a FAQ or guide on how to fix it? Thanks! there is nothing wrong with your cache its keeping the testfile in there so insted of download form the tmn server is downloading form your harddrive all you have to do is clear it. if your using internet exploer go under tools, then internet options then click delete tempaory internet files. in firefox there is cache tab in the options. you may also want to try a mirror server.
