Kakashi Posted April 1, 2004 CID Share Posted April 1, 2004 I am running a cable line through my house, through a motorola sb5100 modem, then to a linksys wireless router, ethernet to a windows me laptop, and wireless via channel 6 to a windows 98se desktop. I am using Tweak master on both computers and the fastest I can get on the laptop is 2.9 Mbps, the fastest on the desktop is 3.0 Mbps. The 98se is a much slower pc, running a wireless connection on 54mbps card and router, rather than ethernet. Any suggestions on rwin settings or anything else would be helpful.

bertski Posted April 9, 2004 CID Share Posted April 9, 2004 As you can see from my speeds above, I'm more than happy with my Cox service here in S.Cal. My question is this.I'm currently running W98SE on an "Old" Dell P-II 350 w/one of the original motorola modems that cox provided when I 1st started my service 4 yrs ago. If I upgrade my equipment to a new P4 2 gig PC as opposed to my old P-II 350,will it have any effects on my speeds? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorne Posted April 9, 2004 CID Share Posted April 9, 2004 Onboard Lan 10/100/1000 is supposed to be faster but so far i haven't had any speed increase with it. GB of Ram!! What are you going to use that rig for?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swimmer Posted April 12, 2004 CID Share Posted April 12, 2004 you will not see anything faster because most of the modems are based on 10/100 ports. Which means that the card it self is limited to 10/100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
