Downgrading is not an option, currently I do not have a 'legit' copy of XP. Thank you all for the great help you've been able to give me. Disconnecting the router is not possible, I've tried and the computer will not recognize the cable modem without, tried everything I possibly could to get it configured. If you have any other ideas, please be my guest. Again thanks for the support you are offering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dn0 Posted November 18, 2007 CID Share Posted November 18, 2007 All of the levels and SNR looks good. I forgot that the SA modem shows your I.P.'s, good catch on hiding them. And it does not appear that you are running IPv6; that slowed me down. Maybe your node is congested, but there is really no way for you to tell. Are you experiencing any packet loss? And also, are all of your links set to 100baseT? Double check your NIC card setting on your PC and your WAN port setting on your router. If any one link in the path is running at 10baseT, then you will never get over ~ 7-8mbps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x_6985381 Posted November 19, 2007 Author CID Share Posted November 19, 2007 Always 100T-Base on both On-Board NIC and Router. Currently IPv6 is not provided with Roadrunner. but haven't checked this in about 3 months. I'll go get into a roadrunner tech chat, and ask again. As for packet loss, absolutely none. From all the data I've tried to run. I'm going to ping myspace.com as thats the website thats giving me almost complete hell 1 min... 0% loss, 98Ms ping My IP has changed from a 24. starting to a 66. And it's been ever sense that, could it be because I was moved to a different server? Sorry, just trying to piece things together, I'll go check that RR chat tho.

Sorry, just trying to piece things together, I'll go check that RR chat tho. It is possible they have moved your node to a new interface, but IP address does not mean that has happened. You could change your MAC on your router, for example, and it will give you a new IP address, possibly even with a new prefix, but still from the same CMTS. By the way, IPv6 will only slow you down (most likely) if you enable it. I forgot that I had enabled it while reading some of jeffwalker's posts and then for the longest time I could not figure out where my dl speeds went. After the damn light bulb went off on my head and I realized what I had done, I uninstalled it and I am now back to normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x_6985381 Posted November 19, 2007 Author CID Share Posted November 19, 2007 I'm going to uninstall all that stuff besides ipv4 and windows serv connect see if stuff changes. And I'll go ahead and change my MAC Address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x_6985381 Posted November 19, 2007 Author CID Share Posted November 19, 2007 Changed a few things within the routers config,changed to only allow this computer, as it is wireless. Alongside that I disabled wireless. Disabled the DHCP server from the router to my computer. This connection problem really does, suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlewis23 Posted November 19, 2007 CID Share Posted November 19, 2007 Get rid of that router.... Its a total Peace of crap. Then undo what ever you did to your computer, get a new router, and you should be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x_6985381 Posted November 19, 2007 Author CID Share Posted November 19, 2007 I can not get my modem to connect directly to this computer. Can someone please help me to just connect the modem to this computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dn0 Posted November 19, 2007 CID Share Posted November 19, 2007 You have to power cycle the modem and release/renew the IP or restart your PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlewis23 Posted November 19, 2007 CID Share Posted November 19, 2007 make sure your IP settings are not manually set. Turn off the modem and the computer, turn the modem on, once thats up, turn the computer on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x_6985381 Posted November 19, 2007 Author CID Share Posted November 19, 2007 So I've found the culprit, I removed one of the end protectors from my 30' Ethernet cord that runs from where my old pc use to be, and there was a gash, I had never see it before but I've repaired it temporallay until I can buy a newer, I was going to see if I could move my cable modem so that I could erase the gashed ethernet cord, but it's 10:47EST, and I have school tomorrow. Looks like tomorrow I'll be buying a new 30' ethernet cord. Hopefully it'll hold until then, that was a waste of time. Thank you all who've helped thus far.
