MagicX Posted August 20, 2004 CID Share Posted August 20, 2004 My download speed with Charter Pipeline..... :::.. Download Stats ..::: Connection is:: 3163 Kbps about 3.2 Mbps (tested with 1013 KB) Download Speed is:: 386 KB/sec Tested From:: http://www.testmy.net/ Bottom Line:: 56 times faster than 56K you can download 1MB in 2.65 second(s) Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/cgi-bin/auth_check.cgi?num=252525 I haven't tweaked my connection at all, so is this ok? Also, if I could make it faster, what are some tweaks I could apply? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTB Posted August 20, 2004 CID Share Posted August 20, 2004 That's a great score already I'm guessing you pay for 3000 kbps download, and you get a bit more than that. Now, it's possible that you can squeeze out a few more kbps by tweaking, but it's unlikely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MagicX Posted August 22, 2004 Author CID Share Posted August 22, 2004 Hehehe....thanks.I'm so used to cable, I never want to switch to anything else. I see so many improvements (after we switched to cable from AOL, which was a piece of crap, I got Firefox as my browser, and I cannot go one minute without using it).Everything is wonderful!

MagicX Posted August 22, 2004 Author CID Share Posted August 22, 2004 no kidding... Firefox it really nice... I just started using firefox and love it! tab browsing is so much easier then using like 30 IE windows.. You can say that again! Not to meantion the fact that Firefox loads much faster, let's add on the whole extensions thing.I can't live without my extensions now (FoxAmp, I'm talking about you....).Good thing I backed up everything with MozBackup.

Swimmer Posted August 27, 2004 CID Share Posted August 27, 2004 My guess is that because MSN is owned by Microsoft and since the lawsuits have required Netscape to be able to do everything that IE can do... Firefox might not be able to do it... There might be a plug in for Firefox that you can download... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
