Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Tue Jul 09, 2002 9:56 am

Just go to Bobs site and try to fix RWIN, they will help you

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Tue Jul 09, 2002 10:31 am

Do you have proxy on, in IE to this:

In IE, go to Tools, internet options, connection tab at top, LAN settings at bottom, nothing should be checked in this box, NOTHING, No auto detect, no proxy, no automatic configuration script, NOTHING,

Then take analyzer test and post

REBOOT

when they advertize speeds on internet connections they do it ON "bits" and not "Bytes". For example: they say 1.5Mbits IT REALLY MEANS 150KBps. so you are getting what they advertized 512Kbits= 50KB, so there is nothing you can do about it. At least you uncap your modem which can give you problems with the law

( NOT RECOMENDED).

Actually no. 1.5megabits is equal to about 188 kilobytes and 1500 kilobits.

If you'd like us to explain in detail, we will, but please don't post incorrect information as fact, as it just makes it harder to explain something to someone if they have already read your mistake.

Did you not just read what Lobo said? Uncapping will not be discussed here.

AMDbeginner · Post by **AMDbeginner** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 11:51 am

yes sir.. i apologize

thank you..

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 11:53 am

I would get the best plan they offer, ask them about speeds, Dad
tell him to pay or you'll hold yer breath

AMDbeginner · Post by **AMDbeginner** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 11:55 am

i tried to avoide saying the word

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 11:56 am

I don't think you can, unless you like reformatting

AMDbeginner · Post by **AMDbeginner** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 11:57 am

ok..

thanks anyways

Old Fart · Post by **Old Fart** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 11:58 am

AMD, "uncapping" aDSL from the client end is impossible. And if it were, it would be as illegal as cable "uncapping".

"uncapping" cable is theft of services, and will not be discussed.

AMDbeginner · Post by **AMDbeginner** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 12:01 pm

OKOKOOKOOK
I GOT THE POINT ..

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 12:03 pm

See the ISP moniters your bandwidth, so even if you could, they would pull the plug on you

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 12:11 pm

Take analyzer test and post results

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 12:19 pm

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 2:52 pm

I have sent for someone, hold on

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 2:56 pm

If help does not come call ISP, you are not going to get any speed with RWIN 288:)

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 3:05 pm

Are you using Optimizer, I forget

, if you are put a check mark in modify all network adapters, reboot and try

AMDbeginner · Post by **AMDbeginner** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 3:23 pm

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 3:24 pm

Try the above first:

Bits and Bytes: http://www.speedguide.net/Cable_modems/bandwidth.shtml

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 3:29 pm

When you call ISP, the heck with bits and bytes, ask them how to change that RWIN, thats all you care about

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 3:41 pm

AMDbeginner · Post by **AMDbeginner** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 4:02 pm

ok.. um.. problem one..
i live in chile.. chile language is spanish

so.. i just say..
i can't change my rwin?

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 4:04 pm

Yes, that is the reason you have no speed, looks like a 56K RWIN or dialup

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 5:58 pm

Go to My Computer on desktop, RIGHT Click, select poperties, device manager, what does it say under adapters

AMDbeginner · Post by **AMDbeginner** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 6:00 pm

Lobo · Post by **Lobo** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 6:01 pm

AMDbeginner · Post by **AMDbeginner** » Wed Jul 10, 2002 6:02 pm
