as to tweaks, here's the funny(?) thing, i'm one of those tweaking fools, always tweaking around to find more, and have tried all the programs, done all the manual tweaks to the registry, messed around with QOS, made up a big chart, listing settings, tweaks and scores.  for the most part, CableNut seemed to be the best tweaking program, but i found that by using cablenut, and then adjust the defaultreceivewindow i could get better connection and faster speeds than if i used the cablenut ccs files.

recently comcast upgraded in our area, from 3000/284 to 4000/384 and i ran the tests again, and again, and tweaked some more, then yesterday i removed all the tweaks, used the default windows xp settings, and these are the scores.

cool :)

the good thing whith the ccs files is that you can tweak upload aswell, but for a 384 Kbps windows deafult is enough

win XP has a very good TCP stack, if you run your NIC in 100 Mbps you will have a RWIN by default of 64240 with a MSS of 1460

if your NIC is in 10 Mbps mode you will only get a RWIN of 17520

thats means alot to the speed

im on 10 Mbps fiber and the gateway switch is set to 10 Mbps full duplex,  if i run 10 Mbps full duplex at my NIC i get around 6 Mbps both ways at a speedtest 25 ms away fro me.

But if i use a RWIN of 64240 i get a speed of 9 Mbps down and 8.5 Mbps up,

but i made some custom file with cablenut and reach my cap now, 9,5 Mbps up and down in TCP.

also this overseas, i live in Sweden btw

p.s. download is more important to me than the upload speed as i seldom have anything to upload and if i do it is either text or pics, and that happens fast enough for me. but the downloads, man, remember those days of downloading a driver file, or ms updates and it would take all day, now it's seonds, or a minute or two, that's what i like!

blah exact opposite for me...  i need upload lol :(

I could download for days straight if needed, since i dont shut off the comp anyhow.. But upload @ 40 kbs is embarrassing.

Theres going to be an upgrade soon for upload,they havent said when or how much of an increase but theyre planning on 512-768 for us and 768-1000 for premium ;):D

And also Earthlink themselves are gonna do something special exclusive only to Earthlink customers :evil6:

yea, i know that, but both test places report upload scores as KB/s, not Kb?

edit:  My "bad" i read it wrong at dsl reports, sorry bout that, but anyway, is my upload speed way slow for comcast, as i said before, never really paid much attention to it, never tested it and when it was a combo upload/download test i never really looked at and paid attention to the upload scores, till now.

is i slowwwww ???

So far I'm pleased with Comcast's most recent speed increase.  Just got bumped to 4000/384 and paid the extra $10 for an additional speed boost with advertised speeds of 6000/768.
