it's your ISP it's not your computer or your router, your ISP is lacking bandwidth or saturated in the Central youre connected to this is why your speed is poor, 220 is about 30kb/s the maximum 512k should be around 55kb/s max real world speed, you're in the middle and its not bad at all.

2 choices ...

good day,

i have 1mbps/512kbps connection ADSL and a modem/router by Netgear (ethernet) conencted to my Nforce NIC..

my question is does switching from 100mbps to 10mbps Fullduplex make any difference for a single PC and performance?

what's the benefit of lowering the nic's speed to 10mbps over ...

hi, 2 days ago something strange has been happening...

at 6:00 AM exactly the modem would lose the ISP Gateway and internet connection would die (not losing SYNC) just modem disconnect form the IP i was given.
i reset the modem but even though i did the modem wouldnt discover the ISP gateway and so ...

disconnections are do to Line Fault (in exchange) or DSLAM problem.

call your phone company and have them check your line.

please post your modem stats (SNR, ATTENUATION etc).

legumo

believe it or not i think your problem is actually your DNS being flaky.

enjoy.

actually doenst really look that good....

the PINGS are very good...but the HOPS are too many = slower.

consider this....18 hops to reach Yahoo and another 18 hops to get back.....total = 36 hops

the more hops you take the worse problems if any trouble happend in any of the hops, in fact it's ...

I have 1 MB broadband with BT and if I use a well seeded torrent then I can get full speed of 116 kb/s but from a web server like download.com or something else I usually only get about 40 kb/s max. Any ideas why?

I've followed some online tweaking guides to make it faster so maybe that's why ...

legumo

the Pipelining thing does absolutely nothing and setting to 30 is useless because Mozilla capped it to a maximum of 8 , so anything above 8 doesnt make any difference.

dont install any ADD ON.

Hi,

Im a broadband user from Asia , using a 512 kbps dsl connection. I play WoW-US and play with a consitently high latency of 450-550 on the Oceanic Servers (Located in the West coast of the United states i believe). Although my connection is extremely stable and this latency is totally playable ...

Thanks for all your help.

you modem ip should ALWAYS be 1 or 2ms ......the one you got is a sure fire proof of a borked modem.

3-4 years for a modem is a long time.

yes modem is dying ......OR.........ISP problem.

the best modulation for ADSL = GDMT

for ADSL2 it depends....normal ADSL2 = ADSL2 , ADSL2Plus is for speeds in the 20-24mbits.

if you're on ADSL 1 and want the most stable connection ever use T1413.

do not use GLITE at all, it's meant only in specific cases.

so :

1. ADSL 1 = GDMT (standard ...

i will not bore you with tweaks....

but all i can tell you is that no amount of TWEAKS will fix your pings, pings are all an ISP thing.

legumo

are they correct...mmm my net still begins at around 600kB and falls to 50kB/sec why is that?

there could be 2 reasons

1. are you throttled by ISP for some reason? overusage of torrents or so?

2. line fault doesn't necessarely makes your net disconnect, it can be bad performance (unable to ...

Which country are you in and who is your ISP?

Sometimes, it is the ISP who is limiting MTU values. Give them a call to find out.

i am from Egypt (although i'm british actually), i called the ISP today and their MTU is actually 1440 and my connection is PPPoE.

even more puzzling now....setting ...

legumo

your RWIN is huge, please use this one 255552

and remember a big rwin wont necessarely speed up things, it may cause the problem you have now.....fast....then drop slow....then back up.

try and report.

i have tried 3 different routers of 3 different brands and all with latest firmware, same thing.

any more ideas please?

something interesting.....i tweaked on pc the MTU from 1492 to 1430 and now this reads :

TCP options string: 0204056e01010402
MSS: 1390
MTU: 1430

so the analyzer is reading anything below an MTU 1440 but not anything above it.

don't waste your time trying to fix your Pings, there's nothing you can do to LOWER it, you can make things a tiny bit smoother/faster but they won't go lower.

this is an ISP problem and all you can do is contact them and let them know.

If you are referring to downloading from the server of http://www.download.com , then I agree speed will be slow. I just downloaded BitComet from them and my speed was only 4.8 KB/s (I am in Thailand) while my present torrents can total 100 KB/s. My guess is that the server of this website is ...

So why would you deduct 8 bytes again from 1492?

1st of all thank you very much for the quick reply :thumb:

i'm not deducting.....i'm adding...

you said the 8 bytes are the reason why the MTU is 1492 for PPPoE correct?

good, this means the MTU is initially 1500 and 8 bytes are substracted to ...
