boss672

it might, however i would think they would only do something if numerous people complained for a long period of time. since most isps are braindead.

boss672

well it seems nic is not bad if the usb adapter has the same prob. reformat should fix
ur mac address will stay the same
ip could change

boss672

try the usb adapter and see what happens. u can leave network card in

boss672

i use tiny personal firewall. no slowdown flawless security.

boss672

try with tweaks, and make sure u have all required information entered in the networking section. Maybe ur not making a connection to ur dhcp server because u missed something in the confusing win2k network section layout

boss672

never heard of it

boss672

thats probably because windows xp is based on the Windows 200 kernel. SO windows xp is pretty much windows 2000 with skins :P Have u tryed tweaks? if so you could have over tweaked causing u to timeout.

boss672

actually niagara falls

.. my cable is g00d now too

boss672

i think ur email is just screwed hehe

boss672

ok hehe its freaks me out cuz it seems like a prob with windows uz of how it lags but gives good ping responses .. o ya is it me or does the network status page not work?

boss672

boss672

boss672

the software thingy is pretty much download accelerator. but if it helps upload t hats a diff story

boss672

boss672

that happened to me once on powerlink, i was uploading at 150 -180 k
they did however put the caps in place within 4-5 hours

boss672

uh oh

boss672

bahhh i disagree :P of course usb uses moree cpu power than the nic but hardley enuf to notice anything. I have reached a solid 653k/s from microsoft.com with my usb as well as the nic ...didnt notice a performance diff at all. Also, im assuming ppl with 8mbps connections wouldnt have usb adapter in ...

boss672

heres what i got
** Speed 2220(down)/114(up) kbps **
(At least 44 times faster than a 56k modem)
Finish.

w00t!

powerlink kix ass!

boss672

umm usb is 12mbits. usb network adapters dont eats up cpu cycles hense the externalness of the external usb adapter

. And speed is equal for broadband purposes. However do go witht he nic if possible

boss672

adelphia rules!!! 500k/s downloads from fast sites, 10-20 ping on my fav cs servers and 70 on servers not located in ny. down time once ina while but nothing too bad.

boss672

lately adelphia powerlink has been timign out.. 10-15 sec is all
i dont lose sync but the timeouts are just enouh to kill an online game or kill a download... what could be wrong?

boss672

boss672

no no the tcp/ip settings .. hehe i described that last post wrong. im a tad tired..i meant like what to check and uncheck in the networking settings in win2k. (dns search suffix and alll that stuff)

boss672

what are the "optimal" settings? Specifically for Adelphia powerlink if possible(which is what im using)

boss672

Power Level 0 dBmV

The Downstream Power Level reading is a snapshot taken at the time this page was requested. Please Reload/Refresh this Page for a new reading

THis was also listed in the signal tab.. is this it?
and if so what is the signal to noise ratio?

boss672

ok i read the post and went into my surfboard 4100 config manager and seen this -- > Signal to Noise Ratio 37 dB
is this whats is supposed to bet -15 <> 15dB ?

boss672

adelphia is friggin aweeesome! 15 upload cap , but whatever

400-500 k/s downloads on fast sites

boss672

w00t, im gonna set up and appointment to get quad oc3's strapped to my pentium 90 machine :P

boss672

no, unfortunatley your going to have to reinstall everything. backup important stuff

boss672

allllllll depends on ur location and what dsl/cable providers u have

boss672

boss672

boss672
