I think alot of it was post hurricane problems but i cant see paying almost 50 a month for this service anymore i am trying to get Verizon DSL 768/128 only 29 a month and ...

Doc_Teal

Also Mnosteele in your My Tips section you say to do this

DefaultReceiveWindow = multiply your ISPs download caps in kilobytes by 1024
DefaultSendWindow = multiply your ISPs upload caps in kilobytes by 1024

If we do that formula for our ISP being Cox shouldnt

Doc_Teal

WOOHOO! I got Cox to come back out they brought a loner modem with them, an old SURFboard modem and the connection interrupts went away. i ran out and bought me a new SB4200 lastnight and so far its been rock solid.

I need to get some new tweaks though for my cable nut settings, while the ...

Doc_Teal

Toshiba PCX1100 i bought it only a year or so ago you think it could be messed up already?

Doc_Teal

Whats the chances of my Cox problems being caused my a bad modem? And is there a way to check your modem? Any programs out there to run a Integrity test on your modem?

Doc_Teal

Its not my pings, i ping fine i actually LOSE connection, i get connection interrupts none stop and it gets to the point in the game when i die i cant respawn, as this is all i use my pc for basically, it is a big deal to me

Doc_Teal

yes its a long drawn out story Ace Mnosteele52 has given me loads of great tweaks they all work great. My ISP is COx they suck bottom line, my connection times out for about 5 secs every 30 seconds meaning YUP im losing my connection for that time and they wont fix it no matter how loud i complain

Doc_Teal

Cox cable is good for browsing but im going back to 56k for gaming Cox is worse than 56k. How do i set up to use both in same puter?

Doc_Teal

I see it says it has a switch to speed up your connection is this an automatic switch or something i have to configure

Doc_Teal

I was just reading a post where you told the individual to use Full Duplex mode with with Cox Cable? Yet in your My Tips post you say for Cable to NOT use Full Duplex. Is it because he has a router? If so what do i do now? I just installed a Linksys router do i need to change my NIC setting or any ...

Doc_Teal

got it

Doc_Teal

I just bought one got it all hooked up to my 2 computers everything is peachy keen. Heres the problem, i want to host a gaming server which i have done a million times before the router but now people see the server but cannot join it. I went into the setup and under dmz i added 101 to the end i was ...

Doc_Teal

No prob Mnosteele52, vent away my fellow Cox sufferer, i am gonna call cavalier and Cox and let Cox know they are about 10 minutes from losing a customer if they dont get someone over here in the next day to fix it.

Doc_Teal

Ok i had the Cox cable tech out he did every test imaginable to my line, he said my line noise is low its like 28 and should never be below 32. Supposedly they are sending out a maintenance guy to "tweak" or change something on the line up on the pole . Im attaching a picture of my pings to the ISP ...

Doc_Teal

Just wondering, like for me and Mnosteele52 service provider Cox Communication cant handle a larger than 1470 MTU before it has to fragment the packets up to send them, so what the use of using 1500. I know using 1500 the packets will still get there they just require more handling and processing ...

Doc_Teal

Im doing a little expirementing and i need some help, i know youll think im crazy but just go with me on this mad little adventure for a sec :D I want to reduce my download down to where it is equal to or less than my upload right now my speeds are in the 2700/312 range and id like to try to get it ...

Doc_Teal

I have the PCX1100 from Toshiba, should i splurge and get the PCX2200 is there a performance difference?

Doc_Teal

The one for XP i had it installed before and it slowed my machine down from the day i installed it. Only reason i want it is to get Java Virtual Machine unless you know where i can get just that

Doc_Teal

Should i install it or not, ive heard good and bad

Doc_Teal

Just got off the phone with them, they checked my line noise said it was low it was like 26 and they said it should never be below 32. I have a tech coming out between 8-10 in the morning tomorrow, gonna run ping plotter all night and save it so they can see what im talking about

should i run ping ...

Doc_Teal

Damn that was a quick response hehe, well first off using Ping Plotter im getting an average of 30% packet loss in an hour. When i do more extensive things like download large files etc. it can sky rocket up to 75-100% packet loss. Also while playing online games i will get numerous connection ...

Doc_Teal

Wondering if Cox can really handle running MTU at 1460,1492 or 1500 i am getting alot of packet loss and am wondering about reducing it so its not sending suck large packets but sending smaller more manageable ones. Is there benefit to it?

I tried doing the old ping -f -l 1462 http://www.cox.com to ...

Doc_Teal

sorry MOS im trying to figure somethings out on an online game i play and that answer dont help :D what im getting at is i think people are some how manipulating thier ports to make thier game play better. like messing with upload or download so they kill you alot easier but thet dont die. I know ...

Doc_Teal

How do i know what ports a certain game uses? the game in question is Novalogics Task Force Dagger. another ??? how do i ensure these ports are open once i know which they are haha. Thanks for any help

Doc_Teal

How do i determine what ports a certain online game use? i would have posted this in gaming forum but nonone ever answer there

When im downloading a file from say ICQ or even from any file server that is a large file, it times out on me is this a connection interrupt? all cable lights are still on and going strong but it times out and wont resume. Mainly on large files like 100MB or more, I checked my NIC and the snooze or ...

Doc_Teal

Is there one NIC card that stands above them all? I have a pretty good one but just wondering if any NIC card is better than another, i.e... will it help connection in ANY way like less connection interrupts, more stable line, more speed?
