fikester Posted February 19, 2006 CID Share Posted February 19, 2006 DWay hasn't responded to my recent emails, I don't have the time to call at the moment... Just reformatted a couple weeks ago... also, speed is the same on other computers... New modem might help, I'm certainly not gonna pay for a new one though... repoint may help, but again with DWay support (I'm not gonna pay for a repoint either... I'd only do it if they pay) Dish is grounded, connected good, restarted modem several times... still bad From my experience they will do a re-point at no cost after you log enough hours on the phone, but the freebie will not include moving the location to get line of sight. My site was already on a solid pole mount which I did myself.....refused to do it again so, ended up getting moved to a different frequency. Big improvement for me. My place only to sats clear were Horizons-1 and Satmex5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bdantz Posted February 22, 2006 CID Share Posted February 22, 2006 I thought you were on the 6000 not 4000, my mistake. Just post in the 4000 forum. Hey birdfan, FYI, I was in here to find out more about the DW6000 units. (it's only a matter of time before I am forced to upgrade and I'm trying to find out what's best. 6000,7000 or other sat service) Judging by your sour responses, you got your nose bent out of shape by my fast speed test. Lighten up, all us sat guys need to stick together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I wouldn't consider either unless you upload a lot. 7000 > 6000 (except for the night time slowdowns) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I wouldn't consider either unless you upload a lot. 7000 > 6000 (except for the night time slowdowns) Hi Bird Fan, My uploading is slow (35 - 50 kbps) like my download is fast. That's a major pain in the butt. What I've seen is that to get >128 kbps up with a 7000, i'm gonna be capped at around 1 mbps (rather than 1.6 - 2.3 mbps) down unless I go to a pro account. Even then, the seems to be no promises for consistent performance. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wheresdalove Posted February 24, 2006 CID Share Posted February 24, 2006 Sorry, your score of 92484 Kbps is over TestMy.net's max of 60000 Kbps. I doubt your connection is faster than 60000 Kbps... Please RETEST Some firewalls may need to be taken down for TestMy.net to work. After the firewall is taken down your browser may need to be restarted also. Clicking the back button repeatedly in your browser often is the cause of this error, please refrain from using your browsers back button if you get this error often. If you still have problems please try testing with flat-file testing lol. Too fast for them i guess. but really, i steal bandwidth by using bit torrent. usually i dl about 1 mb in .40 seconds. you should try it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommie gorman Posted February 24, 2006 CID Share Posted February 24, 2006 Didn't understand all of that, but all I have changed on my comp is TCP optimizer. Just have gotten unusually high scores lately.weeks in fact. Everything is running fine. Others in here have seen some of this also, just not as unusual as mine. And yes pages are loading faster also. No prob. Check here:http://www.testmy.net/forum/t-11909;all By the way pardon my manners, welcome to the forum wheresdalove. Enjoy. Post a speed test.

tommie gorman Posted February 24, 2006 CID Share Posted February 24, 2006 You know, everybody says that we are capped at a 1000. But when I first got it, for the first couple of weeks I did get a 2000kbps.! And I had not done anything at all yet.

tommie gorman Posted March 2, 2006 CID Share Posted March 2, 2006 You know there is only one thing that scares me, have you ever noticed that a light bulb starts to get really bright as it is getting ready to burn out. Hope that has no bearing on this impossible speed. By the way if anybody could explain it I would appreciate it highly. I mean come on even the Rev. never got close to this"Connection is:: 1450 Kbps about 1.4 Mbps (tested with 5983 kB)". Next thing you know I will be able to get those with the 12k file. Isn't this impossible? Remember I have done nothing special in the last month, except try different things which I erased for lack of helpfulness. But it just keeps climbing. And no I did not put any miracle grow in my tower either. Is ther any body that is up on the optimizer tweaking in this forum that I could ask some questions??
