Yes, I have the same Bellsouth ADSL internal 3com modem as you. Except I am getting very slow speeds, much slower than you. I connect at 25,6000 bps, and I usually download at 20 kb/sec.. I read some where that the internal DSL modems are slower than external ones. So i figured thats why Im getting ...

BiG DaN

Ok, i have it. thanx for telling me, thats why the tweaks probably werent working. im gonna install the Windows 98 SE ones now. later

BiG DaN

Hi, I have no idea what Windows 98 SE is. lol. I have windows 98, but i dont know how to find out whether it is SE or not... or what windows 98 SE is. hah thanx

BiG DaN

this is exactly what happened to me, when i first received my alcatel 3com aDSL external modem from Bellsouth. i called bellsouth [my ISP] and they sent a tech guy to me and he couldnt get it to work so he put an internal dsl modem in there.. so i guess u should just call. peace

Somebody told me i should go to http://www.cyberwizardpit.com and get their tweak program, and i did... it supposedly works for every body else. but not me. for me it actually made my connection MUCH slower. look at these results before the cyberwizardpit.com tweak, and after..

Ive tried EVERYTHING there is to speed up my slow DSL connection.

I've tried:
- Calling bellsouth and complaining, numerous times
- MANY tweaks
- messing with RWIN's
- asking bellsouth to check my phone lines, more complaining, etc.
- more things i cant remember.

I don't think I have ...

Does this "Crazy Man tweak" work for DSL? if so, how do I do this? Thanks.

BiG DaN

so if i get Windows XP, or XP whatever its called, it will boost my DSL speed? cuz im not sure if i get bad speeds because of my DSL, or because I have an internal DSL modem. Cuz when i first got my EXternal alcatel DSL modem from bellsouth, about 6 months ago, we couldnt even connect to DSL. So ...

BiG DaN

Whats XP?? is it for DSL as well as cable? where can i get this?

BiG DaN

My tweak tests on this site look fine [513 kb/sec up, 1028 kb/sec down] but when I take the kbps test, on performance.toast.net it says i only have 223 kbps, which is my OLD speed... also, when i download, although im getting great test results on THIS site's tweak tester, i'm still only getting 25 ...

BiG DaN

Yes, i think i am on pppoe, or whatever, i think i will put my mtu on 1492 now then. and my advertised speeds are ughm, id say 800 kbps ? and im getting like 200 kbps connections. and downloads are 25 kb/sec at MAXIMUM. by the way, no, it didnt work. i changed my RWIN and rebooted and it told me i ...

BiG DaN

Hey what did u do, cuz on your first tweak test, you had the same results [132.kb/sec] that I usually get. What did u do to fix it, and raise it up to 500 kb/sec ???

BiG DaN

NotFastEnough, I tried 32767 for RWIN, but it actually made me slower. Here's my test results with 32767.

This past week i been messing with cablenut, and all the .ccs files and changing the numbers in them, so i deleted all the tweaks i downloaded off this site, and uninstalled cablenut.. So i can start over, cuz before i mixed up all the numbers on the .ccs files on cablenut and all that. So what ...

I've been messing with the RWIN on cablenut, and I wanna know if it worked. here's my results for the tweak test.

BiG DaN

Ok, now that I know what numbers to try, which .ccs file do i load and type in the RWIN number for, or do I do it in all of them ?

BiG DaN

Do you have AIM, or AOL? If so, what are your screen names?

BiG DaN

thats what it told me. I used the 2nd or 3rd one it told me though, so maybe ill try 64240 [the 1st one] this time and reboot. but my MAIN question is... theres a bunch of .ccs files on the cablenut adjuster program i use, and am i supposed to open each one [there's pppoe_enternet100-300_2k, pppoe ...

BiG DaN

Hello, I am still at it with tweaking my DSL, but it keeps giving me a message when i do my tweak test, to put my RWIN to certain numbers... Does the number I have in RWIN matter for tweaking DSL modems, or only cable? Please help - I called my ISP [bellsouth] and they said they dont guarantee speed ...

BiG DaN

I understand pretty much all the instructions except what I do on Cablenut. Do I open each .ccs file and click "save to registry" after loading every one, and then "Exit" ?? and THEN reboot? or is there more ??

BiG DaN

It didnt work. thanks for trying to help me out. I just called bellsouth, and they told me they dont guarantee a fast speed. ;[
i cant get it. the instructions are too hard for me

BiG DaN

i just did all that and rebooted and well im back. i tested it out by downloading an mp3. same speed. [20- 25 k/s] well i think it didnt work but heres the results.

I just did it again, and restarted, it didnt work. My computer is still slow. If u could please help me out on what i did wrong, since the instructions werent that helpful for me, that would be great.

BiG DaN

I tried tweaking it myself, I'm not sure if i did it or not, I just finished, do I need to restart my comp now for the changes to take effect or something? cuz i just tried downloading an mp3 and it went as slow as before..... Heres my results:

BiG DaN

I was following the instructions under the "Manually backing up your registry" part, and it said I need to download a program called Cablenut or something, for this to work? So should I download that now and continue with the steps on the help page?

BiG DaN

Whats the OS and system specs ?? Sorry, Im good at computers, but certainly not when it comes to modems.

I downloaded that mtupatch98.zip and double clicked the main file [mtupatch98] and it SORTA helped speed up my DSL. When I download, I can usually get a maximum of 25 kb/sec, but after i "tweaked" my DSL, i downloaded an mp3, and it started at 25 kb/sec as usually, and moved up to 65 kb/sec but then ...
