REH Posted February 25, 2005 CID Share Posted February 25, 2005 Isn't the premium RR service capped at 8mb? -REH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TekNeck Posted February 25, 2005 Author CID Share Posted February 25, 2005 Yes, I think it is 8Mbps. The customer service rep said to give it a few days and call in if the speed doesn't increase. Yesterday I was only getting upperr 3's - lower 4's, so it hasgone up some. I probably need a lil tweaking too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TekNeck Posted February 28, 2005 Author CID Share Posted February 28, 2005 I tested my speed with my computer connected directly through the modem and was running at 7.4Mbps. When I run my desktop through my router i test at the following. :::..

Is there anything that can compensate for this loss? My Laptop runs around the 5.2Mbps range....it uses a wireless card that's recieving at 100%. It seems like it should be closer to my desktop speed, but maybe it's losing even more. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
