this might be because my provider might have this option to tracert turned off i dont know really.

Now things that my provider has done.

Slapped a huge pole on my house and replaced the internet receiver.

Checked the direction of the receiver.

Put me on a high priority server so i get my internet before other people. (so they say)

They've changed my channel-id 3 times, every time they change it my speed goes back to normal....somthing to ponder why.

So im not sure what to do next since theres no traces of any viruses.

retook test in the past 5 minutes....

So your ISP is probably not blocking these .

did the scan and nothing out of the ordinary. when i had that 120+ goin on i was running a bit torrent prog. that might ahve had all that crap up there. after the restart i had 30 running then after a bit it went down to 1-3.

heres another question i have to go along with it. i goto http://www.tetonwireless.com/speed.html and my speeds read: Your current bandwidth reading is: 1.65 Mbps

and right after or before that test i run testmy : :::.. Download Stats ..:::

Connection is:: 195 Kbps about 0.2 Mbps (tested with 579 kB)

Download Speed is:: 24 kB/s...

I spent a good 50 min with my isp's level 3 tech support today. from what there telling me is theres a virus running through the server down in my area thats not allowing some customers there full provisioning speed. they say since they know what it is they will have it fixed with in the next few days. im hoping this holds some truth.

the only way i think i can get my speed to be where it needs to be is to uncap my modem, i dont know the process i know it was mentioned and u can get in trouble. so i might stay far from that idea. its a waiting game for now i suppose.
