    Default Speed up your internet speeds

    http://www.speedguide.net/downloads.php

    1) Download "TCP Optimizer"
    2) Go to www.speedtest.net and run a speed test.
    3) Open TCP Optimizer, select "optimal settings" in the bottom right corner
    4) Apply/restart
    5) Go back to www.speedtest.net , compare results, dance



    NOTE: Results may very, but typically a 300% DL gain.



    Test subjects (all with Cox cable, high speed internet):

    -Vista laptop, wireless. Negative affect.

    -XP laptop, wireless. Download went from [6088kb/s DL / 555kb/s UL] to [19278kb/s DL / 558kb/s UL]

    -XP Desktop, direct-connect. Download went from [12581kb/s DL / 560kb/s UL] to [23356kb/s DL / 558kb/s UL]


    Enjoy. Please post your before and after results.

    I've used a few of these optimizers in the past.. the only time I saw a gain was in torrents, and it was a pretty decent gain in performance. Maybe not 300%, but closer to 150% for me, IMO.

    Thats odd to see those speeds coming from COX internet. I'm sitting in Norfolk, VA and my downstream on their standard package is 10-13 mb/s with an upstream of 2.0 mb/s. When I had my cable upgraded to the premium service I was pulling 18-20 mb/s down and 3.0 mb/s up. That test was performed using the Washington DC server through www.speakeasy.net/speedtest.

    Ya, my 23,000kb DL was because of "power boost."
