dixievideo Posted February 11, 2005 CID Share Posted February 11, 2005 Direcway markets a great product with wonderful down and up loads,,,, Over the phone they are trained to speak connection speed, NOT REAl WORLD upload file transfer speed... Because if they did , they'd sell less of us suckers their product,,, Of course, for me i had no other option as I live in the booneys,. wih no acces to DSL or cable... if ANYONE has any alternatives for me to direc-slow-way.... PLEASE let me know... I'll be happy when the power companies get their internet service going... and it will happen one day .... btw,,, my upload speed fluxes between 1.5 to about 9 but usually averaged around 3......I have to send my files to my server by mail for them to upload...

rlh24 Posted February 11, 2005 CID Share Posted February 11, 2005 Hello dixievideo and welcome to the forum. Lets make sure of some very basic setting. First Internet Explorer is much better to use with direcway. Now in IE make sure you have these settings Tools Internet Options Connections Lan Settings(screenshot attached) make sure your settings are the same. Now click on Advanced(screenshot attached) make sure everything is the same here also. Next follow the direction in this thread.http://www.testmy.net/topic-1703 You will be able to download TCP Optimizer form a link in that thread.Now lets try a upload tweak found in this thread. http://www.testmy.net/topic-1773 Please be very careful when editing your registry. Make a restore point before doing any of these suggestions. I hope this helps you and post back with your new speeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fikester Posted March 23, 2005 CID Share Posted March 23, 2005 If I knew the facts, DW4000 was twice as fast as the updated DW6000, before signing on.....would have shopped for a used 4000 on eBay... DirecWay says no difference in speed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aggr3 Posted March 24, 2005 CID Share Posted March 24, 2005 ....the lady instantly told me it was due to radar jamming. I told her that my dish was not located at Area 51 or within two hours of an airport. Nor was there a speed trap set up in my yard. LMAO....that's the best one I've heard yet...

When I set it up as described, no connection? Do I need a static IP. This machine has never been networked. I'm running XP Home SP2. Straight Ethernet cable from to the DW6000.

rlh24 Posted March 31, 2005 CID Share Posted March 31, 2005 Glad to hear that you got it working. Give it a couple of days to settle in. You should see more stable speeds after 2 or 3 days. Everytime you make a change it will take the NOC a couple of days to register them and stabilize. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
