wildman67 Posted March 17, 2004 CID Share Posted March 17, 2004 I was testing my connection yesterday and it was reading around 200kbs and 48kbs download on a cable modem. I tested it 10 times and it never did rise above 500kps connection and 70kbs. I also tested it via toast.net and the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reddog00 Posted March 18, 2004 CID Share Posted March 18, 2004 Hey lorne what brand motherboard do you have? I use my onboard 10/100 LAN. I have a DFI I875B Pro LanParty. Sucker glows in the dark. I am gonna set it my puter on my porch on Halloween and and scare the crap out of the geeks...lol! Anyways I have better speeds with the onboard LAN than I ever did with a NIC. You might wanna check and make sure that you have the latest driver update for the LAN on your mobo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reddog00 Posted March 18, 2004 CID Share Posted March 18, 2004 CA3LE he he would probably be better off going to the mobo manufacturers web site. I always get better results from the manufacturers drivers rather than WindowsUpdate Drivers. In fact I suggest to everyone not to use WindowsUpdate drivers because they have, on more than one occassion, forced me to wipe drive and do a clean OS install Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lorne Posted March 19, 2004 Author CID Share Posted March 19, 2004 Yeah i will check and see about those drivers, thanks My board is the abit nf7-s. Yeah i was thinking of getting one of those lanpartys, they oc real good and they look wicked. I have heard of quite a few people getting dead boards but that is what rma is for. I am getting my conn slowly whipped into shape i will post a couple of scores later. I am running a folding program right now so i will wait until i stop it. Actually i should post my new system specs. Cpu: Athlon 2500+ mobile, OCed to 2.2 ghz MOBO: ABIT nf7-s Ram: Samsung PC 3200 512 MB vid card: NVIDIA GeForce MX 440 Hd: Seagate 40GB 7200 RPM This chip rocks i am running at 2.2 ghz at 1.5 Vcore i don't want to go any higher until i get my other heatsink. Right now i have a $12 heatsink on here. I have a aeroflow on order, when i get that i should be able to hit 2.6 ghz. Than when i finally get a sp-97 i should be able to hit close to 2.8 ghz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
