Recommended Posts

Im new to this and dont even know how to take a screenshot of my speeds like you guys do but maybe u l33t dudes could help me a bit with my speed. Im using Cable modem (comcast) and using Azureus prog. I seem to be getting bad download speed, my friend showed me a screenie of him getting 230K+ with way less peers and seeds then I currently have. I currently have 11 seeds 60 peers and am only getting 30k Download speed. My upload speed is normally higher then that reaching 40+ alot. How do I increase my Download speed? With this many peers/seads I would imagine I should be able to download faster then this. If you have any other questions about more information you might need to help me I'll be glad to answer any of it. Thanks Guys.

if you have 3.0/256  package you will get free upgrade to 4.0/384

if you have 4.0/384 package you will get free upgrade to 6.0/768 ($10.00 more a month)

i had 4.0 now i went up to 6.0

if you live somewhere in these cities  you should have upgrade before march 31

I believe you're on the 6000/168 plan right? If this is correct, and you are infact running XP service pack 2, use the attatched cablenut file. It's VanBuren's version 5 for SP2.  Just unzip the file, doubt click it, and click save settings to registry in cablenut. Then reboot.

Ok I followed the steps, i downloaded cablenut and your 5th package settings, im now at the screen where it desplays a bunch of folders (1360-1460) and i need help lol, which one do i go to for the settings i need?

Comcast has a MSS of 1460
