amkazen Posted March 18, 2005 CID Share Posted March 18, 2005 :::.. Download Stats ..::: Connection is:: 993 Kbps about 1 Mbps (tested with 2992 kB) Download Speed is:: 121 kB/s Tested From:: http://www.testmy.net/ Test Time:: Thu Mar 17 23:44:35 MST 2005 Bottom Line:: 18X faster than 56K 1MB download in 8.46 sec Diagnosis: Looks Great : 19.06 % faster than the average for host (direcpc.com) Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-AJU4Y17KH Earlier tonight it was 171 Kbps so I called Direcway. After the call, my download speed was 386 Kbps. I defragged the harddrive even though Disk Defragmenter said it was nto needed and now I am at the 993 - 1,021 Kbps. However, these speeds are nothing like the speeds being shown in the other thread on the DW4000 speeds. What gives??? Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aggr3 Posted March 18, 2005 CID Share Posted March 18, 2005 amkazen Hey welcome to the forum.. In response to your question....yes there is a big difference between the two systems. The 4000 on average runs about twice as fast as the 6000. Uploads run very close but the downloads don't compare. The 6000 has an internal processor which CAN BE controlled by Dway...where as the 4000 does not. The internal software (sent by Dway through your sat connection) is the limiting factor here. Hope this helps to clear it up...if you have more questions....just ask....someone will answer you.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amkazen Posted March 18, 2005 Author CID Share Posted March 18, 2005 Aggr3, Thanks for the info. Does this mean there is nothing I can really do to increase the speed of the DW6000, as it appears DirecWay will not let me go to a DW4000, based on what I have read?
