leoinnj Posted January 6, 2007 CID Share Posted January 6, 2007 Hi djspinna, you can download TCP optimizer & change your settings. Make your MTU 1500 and make your TCP receive window 62240 It made quite a difference to my speeds. TCP Optimizer version 2.0.2 RC2 (10/06/2005) - SpeedGuide.net ... The latest stable release can be downloaded here: TCP Optimizer v 2.0.1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommie gorman Posted January 6, 2007 CID Share Posted January 6, 2007 Can't beat that daytrader. But this is the comcast users section for speed tests. Although I am sure they enjoy the company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mogramjo Posted January 7, 2007 CID Share Posted January 7, 2007 K0n5t4nt? Sometimes if you use like the 'TCP Optimizer' you can get better than you're connection is rated for...and certainly better than you did, ok? This forum will help you reach your maximum and beyond...but the topic of 'uncapping your modem' is taboo because it is theft. That doesn't mean you'll be in 'trouble' for asking about improving your speeds...nor in 'trouble' for succeeding. Just steer clear of anything that's not, shall we say:"kosher" and there's a LOT of tweats and tips that help...not to mention good 'habits' before speed tests: 1. clear your Temporary Internet Files completely before each test..especially at TMN and 2. Usually, best speeds withOUT anything else running, and at off times of night, AND with your firewall and antivirus temporarily turned OFF. However...don't go to just ANY 'speed test' site with those 2 turned off...for obvious reasons, eh? best luck and welcome to TMN!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mogramjo Posted January 7, 2007 CID Share Posted January 7, 2007 Howdy Uskeo!! Howdy Tommie!! I'm curious, what's your stated down/up rates...mine's 12/1 with Cox cable here in Arizona..too a bit of doing to finally figure out what it would take to actually GET those ...but am good now, well, actually..my computer was hay-wire for a few days...all of THAT time the Cox connection was *solid*, now my computer is sorted out (by me and with a lot of hair-tearing and cussing) and ya, you guessed it...my Cox connection has been ultra flakey today...so, I go to do some routine maitenance..and ya, you guessed it...even in Safe Mode..for the first time EVER, Scandisk refuses to get past about 15%...even though Defrag. ran with no errors, which I almost NEVER do if I can't get Scandisk to run ok...so, blah blah blah and howdy, I'm 'mo' P.S., lucky you (probably) for having a Comcast tech right next door!!!
