Having troubles with shawcable


Sup GAD

Recommended Posts

IM on the 5000/500 package and my upload never seems to go over 250, my download is fine though, and I don't know how to fix it. Im running through a bridge , a d-link 614+ router and using zonealarm - all of which should have no real effect. Im upgrading to the Extreme-I tier tomorrow advertised at 7000/1000 and they are giving me a new modem, will this fix the problem? and if it doesn't should I phone and see what the deal is?

Btw I have downloaded cablenut and tried the tweaks for 5000/500 and they did absolutely nothing for me.

EDIT: Heres some tests for you guys, I don't know how to do other ones like a ping test or whatever.

I would certainly wait for the new modem install to see if that helps.

It can most definitely be a problem.

But, even if it not, I would still wait until you get the new setup since you'll have to re-tweak after that.

Post your speeds after you get the upgrade.
