Latency has to do with your current ISP's routing and distance,Overloaded Backbones,You ISP's available bandwith,etc and this all equal's out to time in Milli-seconds.Having a faster or fatter pipe for downloads will not increase nor decrease your ping times over DSL or Cable modem connections ...

Guys Windows XP has Built in DNS caching,which some prefer to turn off.I to use many of Analog X's utilities,but this was written for pre-xp systems,Thanks

volntn

Everyone has an opinion,Thanks for the personal attack and flame.Cablenut was very effective for Pre-XP Os's.But For XP,and ppoe and Etherenet connections for Internet Broadband.I have seen no Increase in performance using settings other than RCV window,MTU,Path,SAck's,Scaling,.Show me a direct ...

Or you simply might try DR.TCP. There have been many discussions on cablenut and effects,i am not gonna go into them other than to say DR.TCP for Windows XP has every TWEAK that is supported by white papers."Other" programs IMO that add fictional settings could even be harmful to optimizing your ...

Your UPLOAD speed dictates how many people you can host on a server..If you are @128k than 3 maybe 4 at the most and that is pushing it.The TCP/IP tweaks should not be affecting your ping.RCV window and MTU are really the only 2 tweaks that i have tested that affects your download speeds.IMO the ...

Sorry..I am not that familiar with DSL.... But Go to http://www.dslreports.com and click on forums on the left hand side menu.Then show all forums,and try to find your ISP and make a post there.There forums are very ISP'/Connection type specific and i am sure you will get very many repsonses.

volntn

If that doesnt help,try going to control panel,Network Connections,Right Click on your current Network connection and choose repair.Then close Control panel and see if you can "surf" once again.May be a quick fix for you

Hey,

Dont Use USB to connect your computer to your cable modem,I have seen hundreds of posts over the years with people having issues with USB connections to Cable modems.Buy yourself a NIC (Network Interface Card) Or simply called a Network card.It connects using CAT5 cabling(Look's like a ...

volntn

Sound's like a hardware problem to me,NIC or memory.If you do have all the latest updates for 98se and still having these problems,i would be 100% it was a hardware issue,it may even be a DNS lease Renewal problem,which could be caused by a Firewall program not allowing DHCP to renew your lease ...

If Scandisk is reporting bad sectors.....WARNING WOOT WOOT...You have a better than greater chance your hard drive is failing.While a reformat will solve the problem short term,bad sectors and clusters will only continue to multiply,I would back up any important information or data you have and ...

The Delete key being pressed at boot,after Video card post,will open most all Award Bios.

TCP/IP optimizer from here at speedguide is the one i recommend,as the cablenut optimizer loads registry settings that do not apply to windows XP or 2000.If you have 95 or 98,ME then that is what Cable nut works best for.But if you have XP or 2000 most of so called tweaks do nothing but go ...

If i understand your post correctly,and you have XP pro with a corporate cd key,then yes if you buy the HOME version and install over the top "not recommended" it will accept the new Microsoft provided key.Just use the boot from CD option in your bios.

volntn

The windows update site for XP scans for 1.Critical Updates 2.Recommended Updates 3.Drivers

And since SP1 it doesnt "scan" any longer,the active x control just goes from 0 to 100 with no updates available.I have seen a few posts out on the net with people that are having a similiar problem to ...

Quake 2 rail gun...Hands down...Inspired all insta-weapons since.

One problem though..since installing "parts" of SP1 my IE6 auto update will scan for updates and display 0 updates available,which of corse i know isnt right as i havent installed the .net framework ,euro conversion tool etc.I reinstalled IE6 and the active x update control and to no avail.Oh well i ...

volntn

After you install Realplayer,run msconfig and take the auto load feature out of the boot list and it wont be hogging your system resources.

volntn

If your cd drive will read it..it can be duplicated

volntn

I agree CD-clone is the best bit for bit copy utility made.You can also make an .ISO image of the disk,both will defeat most CP standards.

volntn

Which do you guys think is the most stable,Now before we get the Mac guys jumping down my throat for even asking this question,i want people that have and do use both.I myself like XP although OS X has a little better eye candy.But for comapatibility you cant beat XP,,heck my machine has been on non ...

volntn

Post a traceroute and your lan configuration or we cant help.

volntn

Do you have a firewall installed,such as Zone Alarm or Black Ice?

volntn

Also,Check to make sure you dont have Internet filtering software installed.That causes 99% of web pages access blocks.

volntn

DAP doesnt cause web pages not to be displayed,it is for FTP.All DAP does is log onto the server 4 or more times and re-combines the file from pieces to one file again....Doesnt affect anything when going to http://www.cnn.com ,Unless you go to the download section

volntn

ewwww,poor guy thats like ISDN speed.....how much they charge for that speed package?

volntn

Try Mozilla or Opera Browser's...and even netscape browser and see what happens with those.

volntn

Do you have anything like Netnanny or cybersitter installed on your computer?These are programs that block sites that might be unsuitable for children i.e. porn,even some news sites.Also try downloading the OPERA browser or Mozilla Browser and see if you are able to access your sites with these ...

As a former One-way cable modem user you can use a regular modem like a USR internal 56k to "send" your data.and use a MTU of 576 on a on dialup connection you make.If you copy all applicable network settings to your dialup connection you manually make.You will receive all incoming data on your ...

In a word or 2,"They Blow".I have had nothing but problems from them.Problems to numerous to metion.My pings have went from 90 to 300 the last month and they blame it on sprint.So i get no help.I am considering 2 way sat.Use anybody but them

volntn

just to be sure you can get the best little personal firewall i have seen,its called zone alarm.Not only will it block incoming packets but outgoing as well and tell you the application that is trying to use your connection.You can get it at download.com just search for zonealarm in dwonloads.Also ...

Thanks guy's.We had the erie feeling that somehow it was being blocked.Yes dirk ppl can ping me as long as they are on another ISP.All i would wish to do is to be able to run roger wilco so we can chat while we game.I dont think this would violate a TOS agreement.Something else,I have had one other ...

My ip is 206.107.127.**,the other guys is the same except for the last digits being 3 *** instead of 2.I am pretty sure i am on "node"7 and he is on node 2.Least thats what the cable installer told me a year and a half ago.Anyone else from outside using another ISP can connect up fine with us..just ...

"To borrow an expression of that moron G.W.Bush "fuzzy math" seems to suit me fine. I would be curious to hear from you experts the reason behind such a profound difference."

To borrow another expression of another moron.... "I Al Gore invented the internet"

volntn

well we thought of that...but if one of us uninstall's our network card drivers ,which basically gets rid of my cable modem,then i can connect on a dialup.I know its crazy,Noone seems to have ever heard of this before,but its the same with anyone on our cable company.

volntn

Can anyone explain why 2 sb1200 one way cable modems on the same network,about 7 miles apart from one another -cannot- connect IP to IP.And also be unable to ping one another as if the connections dead.Also,if one user is on the cable modem and the other guy is across town on his backup dialup ...
