:::.. Download Stats ..:::

Connection is:: 3631 Kbps about 3.6 Mbps (tested with 2992 kB)

Download Speed is:: 443 kB/s

Tested From:: http://www.testmy.net/

Test Time:: Mon Mar 28 23:21:46 EST 2005

Bottom Line:: 65X faster than 56K 1MB download in 2.31 sec

Diagnosis: Looks Great : 3.71 % faster than the average for host (rr.com)

Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-VL3C7S5OF

:D:-P

Not to shabby under the circumstances.

As for the router it's an old Linksys Wireless-B model: befw11s4v3.2 with the lastest/last firmware release.

I have used CableNut with VanBurens v6.0 pack with customized tweaks/mods to one of the files and well as many registry tweaks I have gotten from here and in combing the web for them for (ever since I used to use WinME). I was useing Dr.TCP before CableNut but thanks to reading VanBurens tips and finding this site about 6 or 8 months ago I have realized CableNut has many more options. I run netstumbler to find best positions for my PC to get the maximum I can in signal strength but it is definitely worth the effort.

My PC is an old Gateway 1000 Select with 1Ghz Athlon Thunderbird

512MB SDRAM

Nic Card: Linksys Instant Wireless PCI Card v2.7

My box runs Windows XP SP1 with all updates except Malware Scanner

(I use better stuff for Anti-Virus and Anti-Spyware than most people and don't need MS opinion of my system;))

(because SP2 is crippled garbage so don't even get me started as to why think that...yes I went there.heheh :evil::twisted::evil6:)

I keep all firmware, drivers, and patching up to date 4 the hardware and software installed.

My AV of choice:Kaskpersky Anti-Virus Personal Pro v4.9.095 (best on the market and better than v5.0 btw)

Secondary AV: ESET NOD32 v2.12.3 (one of the fastest and excellent heuristics for finding new viruses)

Other AV's:  F-Prot v3.16a (Commandline fast and lota detection(s) excellent heuristics too.)

                  AVP v3.0 Build 133 (also oldy but a goody and same defintions as KAV)

Anti-Spyware:  Spybot Search & Destroy v1.3 (free very good)

                        Microsoft AntiSpyware v1.0 BETA (ditto)

                        SpyWare Blaster v1.3 (ditto)

                        Ad-Aware SE Professional

Also I use a customized hosts file and much more...

(You probably think I have an excessive amount of AV and Anti-Spyware but I actually don't run any of it as a monitor only manually since I collect malware and vx ... sure I may get some flames for this but I don't care you need to learn about security by studying that which offends and scares ppl I move around worms, viruses, exploits and malware/spyware ect. and I an not and haven't been infected in 3 years of constantly manipulating files/viewing/decompiling/ect. and I can disinfect my system in 9 out of 10 cases without an AV to help me ;):haha: By no means do I advocate spearding malware or viruses or hacking ppl so don't go there either.  There are plenty of ignorant script kiddies and evil ppl in the world and they do a fine enough job without my help.  Some people collect stamps but there is no real thrill for me there :whaa::evil6::roll::haha:;) I apologize in advance if this offends ppl but then again I DON'T infect ppl and I am NOT infected so bite me if u know likey;))

bw = 81.78 based on packet size = 11Kbits, RTT = 136.19msec, and loss = 1.0E-6

The theoretical network limit is 81.78 Mbps

The transmit buffer (125.0 KByte) limits the application to 7.17 Mbps

Your receive buffer (8000.0 KByte) limits the application to 458.90 Mbps

The network based flow control limits the application to 4.00 Mbps

Client Data reports link is 'System Fault', Client Acks report link is 'System Fault'

Server Data reports link is 'OC-12', Server Acks report link is 'Ethernet'

My download isn't that great I admit but the Upload kickz :twisted::D and this is typical for any of the big .edu/university tests I run almost daily I can't complain.. :haha:

Path MTU Discovery:  ON

RFC1323 Window Scaling:  ON

RFC1323 Time Stamping:  OFF

Selective Acks:  ON

MSS requested:  1460

TTL:

(less any hops behind firewall)

59

TTL remaining:  49

2. Test 146000 byte download

Actual data bytes sent: 146000

Actual data packets: 100

Max packet sent (MTU): 1500

Max packet recd (MTU): 1500

Retransmitted data packets: 0

sacks you sent: 0

pushed data pkts: 1

data transmit time: 0.348 secs

our max idletime: 33.1 ms

transfer rate: 202233 bytes/sec

transfer rate: 1617 kbits/sec

This is not a speed test!

transfer efficiency: 100%

3. ICMP (ping) check

Minimum ping: 20 ms

Maximum ping: 30 ms

Ping stability:

20 20 20 20 25 20 20 20 30 20

Notes and recommendations:

Choose RWIN between 48180 and 125560 (FAQ #586)

download/use DRTCP .. (FAQ #578)

Read the tweak FAQ

Notes and recommendations:

Good data stream (no/few rexmits)

Notes and recommendations:

Looking good

Still stuck? copy/paste this url:

if you are seeking forum advice. DO NOT COPY PASTE THE PAGE, JUST THE URL ABOVE.

(and please don't forget to explain what you've got, cable, DSL, speed it should be etc)

My real download throughput pic: [url snipped by swimmer

Not a fluck since this happens often when i connect to fast servers and no I didn't photoshop it being that I never took the time to get good at using photoshop or any photo manipulaion tools for that matter but believe what u want if your skeptical ;):whaa::cool:
