turner7205 Posted June 12, 2005 CID Share Posted June 12, 2005 Well I just got DirecWay and I have the DW6000 modem. Well my speeds are about 670Kbps down and 40Kbps up. I know thats not great but my dial up was about 27kpps, so im happy. Any DW6000 users have any suggestions to maybe get this download speed higher? My signal is about 54 and I know that doesnt effect my speeds. Now ive been lookin at the DW4000 seems cheap on Ebay how hard is it to switch over and would it be worth it? Any tips, suggestions etc etc would be great!!! :::..

StoneSat Posted June 12, 2005 CID Share Posted June 12, 2005 Van Buren's cable nut settings worked out great. I was pulling around 995 every time. However, my download stayed the same even with VB's settings until I bumped the tcp send/receive up to 1491. Many Thanks. :::..

turner7205 Posted June 14, 2005 Author CID Share Posted June 14, 2005 if you run the download test on this site to many times will it give you a false reading??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aggr3 Posted June 14, 2005 CID Share Posted June 14, 2005 turner7205 ...no it won't give you a false reading...so long as you use the retest link...and don't click the back button. Using the back button produces a cached result....which is normally huge and is false.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
