Well century tel tells me that I'm out of luck, that you cant do that to these modems.. I found on the westell site that my model is set up to run up to 8mbps but is capable to run 28 so it seems to me that it might need to be set up different.
Just to see I went ahead and dropped the wireless for ...

I cant seem to find a way to update the modem... Its a westell 6100 but I got it through Centurytel(my isp) so its not supported by westell... I'll try to give them(centurytel) a call tomorrow and see what they say.

I'll try that... This might be a silly question but would a wireless router(even though I'm hard lined to it) have something to do with it?

So the 7mbps is pretty much all I'm going to get out of the 10mbs service?


trogers, I just wanted to thank you for helping me again! This is the second time since I found this site you have come to my aid and I want you to know it is much appreciated!
Thank You
Mark

OK so when I go to my modems ip address it shows me at 8446kbits/sec(upload) and 555kbits/sec (download)...

What does that tell me?

Hi, I'm back. Ok did the uninstall and ccleaner but just left the driver out since that printer is down anyways. But still same thing ; It seems to be changing my TTL also. I also put the tcpoptimizer back to default rebooted and started over?

No, I don't have cordless! My house is old though so if I run a new line maybe other then that I don't have any other power source by my modem! When u said it the first time I had my modem under my desk below the monitor and by my power strip!

My modem is like 6 years old also?

Later on today I will run a designated line from outside to my modem with cat5 and see if that helps!
Thanks for all your time and help!

the reason I ask is because I use surge protector with a splitter! So my phone line is right by all my cords. I just did again with all off accept computer, monitor and modem and this is result!
