VanBuren Posted January 28, 2005 CID Share Posted January 28, 2005 hey Jack and welcome to the forum those scores are ugly on that package, and i dont think its a tweak issue do like this open cablenut, click delete cablenut tweaks and click save to registry now reboot your pc, also reboot your modem leave it off for 30 full seconds. also reboot your router now make a new speedtest, and a tweaktest and post result VanBuren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VanBuren Posted January 28, 2005 CID Share Posted January 28, 2005 do you have a router installed? If so, by pass it and connect your pc directly to modem, also reboot your cablemodem for 30 seconds and make a new speedtest both at speakeasy and testmy.net VanBuren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it isn't a function of the router being lame, how can I tell if somebody else is on my wireless network? and finally, with the speeds I'm seeing now, should I still employ the Cable Nut stuff, or just not bother?

VanBuren Posted January 28, 2005 CID Share Posted January 28, 2005 go to your router manufactors homepage and download latest firmware and install it i dont know know anything about wireless network security, but i dont think your neighbors leeching off you try a new firmware and make a new post, later i will help you get even better speed with cablenut VanBuren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
