einsteins Posted July 16, 2007 CID Share Posted July 16, 2007 Hi all I just used Cablenut to configure my Mediacom connection it is 8000 download and 512k upload... I used the calulator to get my settings I think they are good, but I am no expert. Think I can do better? here are my results einsteins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coknuck Posted July 16, 2007 CID Share Posted July 16, 2007 einsteins, Welcome to the forum. Hope you enjoy your stay here. You are way over on your upload and just about where you should be with your download. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
einsteins Posted July 16, 2007 Author CID Share Posted July 16, 2007 Thanks I am kinda a newb at the speed tweak thing... I was doing some further reading and I am wondering if my speed effected by not having emptied the cache first? I am using FireFox ....should I empty the cache each time I test? thanks again... ein Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coknuck Posted July 17, 2007 CID Share Posted July 17, 2007 Yes you should clear your cache before each test no matter what browser you use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
einsteins Posted July 17, 2007 Author CID Share Posted July 17, 2007 Well I guess that was getting excited over nothing as my speeds are far less when I clear my cache first.... here is one of the better scores with cache cleared.... back to the drawing board I guess I tested it many times...never got over 6000 kpbs I really thought I had it going good too. einsteins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coknuck Posted July 18, 2007 CID Share Posted July 18, 2007 einsteins, Give this cablenut file a shot. Remember to reboot for the settings to take place Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
einsteins Posted July 18, 2007 Author CID Share Posted July 18, 2007 Hey Thanks!! I will do it right now Stay tuned... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
einsteins Posted July 18, 2007 Author CID Share Posted July 18, 2007 Ok.... this is weird When I run the download and upload test together here is a typical result after clearing the cache. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
einsteins Posted July 18, 2007 Author CID Share Posted July 18, 2007 When I run just the download test this is my typical speeds The last 2 posts were both with the css you gave me einsteins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coknuck Posted July 18, 2007 CID Share Posted July 18, 2007 Maybe the Global Max Tcp Window size and the Tcp Window size are to big on that file. You might try this one. A lot of getting the right ccs.file is trial and error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
einsteins Posted July 19, 2007 Author CID Share Posted July 19, 2007 First...let me say thanks for the help. after using this einsteins2.css I am getting results ranging from 6.1 mbps to 7.7mbps. I am clearing the cache each time before I start. Is this type of inconsistency normal? It also seems like the first run after a new file is installed id always the fastest...I do clear the cache before that one also. The readings seem to creep downward each test until I hit a bottom avg. This last time it was around 6.1mbps as I stated above. Upload is rock steady at 59kb/s Thanks again for your help on this.... einsteins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
