Damn, after tweaking got 6 Mbps down and 1.5 Mbps up. Take that. I chatted with others in the IRC channel, they even got higher speed than I am, they are getting 15 Mbps down and 4 Mpbs up. Now that's what I'm talking about broadband.

Peace out \/

tweak101

who gives a **** anyway, they are rippin' me off so get back some'n in return.

tweak101

Guess what I just found out. There's a web site that shows you how to uncap your Surfboard modem to pass the 1.5 Mbps barrier. It consists of 8 steps with detailed guides and pictures of course. But the bad thing is that I don't have a surfboard.

Let me try it out and I post the results for you ...

tweak101

Do you all still have static IP or Dynamic IP now...?? I have dynamic now..

Thanks!

tweak101

good one...I like it!!

Sorry off-topic but really funny!

tweak101

Can you name a few good DSL providers with static IP with no extra cost and affordable price with OK speed 1.5 Mbps/128Kbps. I am really sick and tire of ATT. I've been having it for quite some times now with static IP. Until last nite, with no notices my IP change. The only problem I having is that ...

tweak101

Thanks for the reply...I guess for now I'll stick with cable.

tweak101

Well, that's it...I agree...!

tweak101

Sup, all! I finally got qualified for SWB DSL now (after waiting for a year) and the speed they advertised as 1.5 Mbps / 128 Kbps. My question is can you use cablenut or whatever tweak out there to make it go beyond the 1.5 Mbps like we all did before ATTBI came in??

Thanks!

Note: Please do NOT ...

tweak101

lots of ppl I know around my town having lots of problem with ATTBI network too since the switch. But I don't think DSL is any better, cuz I know some ppl and they said the same so I'll just have to hang with ATT for now and give them some times. If no improvements, then switch over to DSL, and ...

tweak101

First of I don't mean uncapping my modem...I know that for so long now that it is not possible to do.

Anyway, thanks for replying...!

Well, I just have to wait til when it becomes available..

tweak101

Hey, for those of you who are using DSL right now. Please tell me what is your cap and will you be able to go over the download cap by using the tweaks?? For example, I am using ATT @Home right now, but since ever I got swiched to ATTBI network then the download speed is capped at 1.5 Mbps, and I ...

tweak101

yep, it really sucks...I'll wait one more month and get DSL from SW Bell.

tweak101

damn...before switching over my speed was like around 600 KB/s download. But now like ****...

I used to have my RWIN set to 513920 and worked great back then now..no use...

Hi, before ATT @Home went out off bankruptcy. I tested my speed on http://www.pcpitstop.com on a 5 MB file, I would get around 5500 kbps. But now after moving to ATTBI network, I got down like not even 1.5 Mbps. Sucks...any1 else??

Thanks

Hi, guyz! Just made a little program that can be used to tweak your windows XP. Many of the tweaks are coming from here. On my prog. I also refer to speedguide.net cuz I liked this site a lot. Check it out at http://www.viettre.net.

Also another prog I have is used to set the transparency in your ...

forgot to mention that Linux is not lesser than window? Almost anything you find in Windows, you can find it in Linux (software wise) like Microsoft Office, CDR Prog, browser like IE, winamp, Media Player (DivX), etc.

tweak101

I think everyone should change your OS to Linux. Everything is so fast in Linux. My Smart and Friendly CDRW drive at 4x4x24 in windows only burns at max 600 KB/s but in Linux, I can specify it as a scsi and it burns at 1 MB/s.

Whewwwww...I'm happy, and yet I just got my cable modem speed back up.

My speed is back this is what I got in benchmark over pcpitstop.com

tweak101

I think the other guy is a bit over temper man. I agree with you Crispy.

There's nothing wrong with my hardware. I used all the brandname ****s like Best Data Cable Modem and I bought that **** for $200. My Ethernet is 3COM, and my computer is pretty damn fast with 1.0 GHz CPU and 1.0 GB of RAM ...

tweak101

Yep, I think ever since the bankruptcy deal they have. My speed lags like **** man. I called them and asked if they can send someone out to test my line signal. They said that I have to pay $50 for that cuz it's extra. Damn, this sucks bad.

Also I tried everything as you did but still no go. To be ...

tweak101

Yes, I wanna play it as a client....!

SO there's no client for Linux??

tweak101

I only see the CS mode 1.3 Full file (this is an upgrade from 1.1 right?) Can I play CS with this cuz I don't have version 1.1 yet!!

Any1 knows where I can get this Counter-Strike game for Linux????

tweak101

OK, after a while of messing with RWINs this is what I came up with very weird though.

At first I used RWIN 999999 that I saw in this forum, I entered it in the adjuster. Reboot. Amazingly I connected to ftp.adobe.com and download one of the Acrobat reader file 21 MB and be able to hit max speed at ...

Hi, I posted some threads regarding the problem I'm having rite now is that my download speed drop dramatically. Back then I used to get around 600 KB/s on download with RWIN 513920 (which I found best for me) and now I can only go up to 120 KB/s is the max I got so far.

So the question I wanna ask ...

tweak101

Ya, back then with RWIN 513920 I could get up to 600 KB/s on download with ATT @Home. But now, with nothing change, I don't know why on earth my speed drop down to about 100 KB/s. Yes I called up the tech and they said 100 KB/s is still good for a cable modem connection. I was so pissed off and I ...

tweak101

really, that @Home is going out of business? dang, didn't know that. I didn't contact them since a long time. So what happen to us as users when they went bankrupt? We don't get Cable anymore?? damn...

Hello, all! I think @Home now cap my download speed and so as the upload of course. The reason I said that cuz now no matter what RWIN I tried from very small to large like 513920 but have no luck. My download speed is still going any where from 120 KB/s to 140 KB/s max. Back that with the above ...
