Can cable modem ever get as slow as 56k or even slower?
Yes
yes it can but if it does then u have a serious problem...contact ur ISP
mines bogged down before, but i dont think that slow.....
what brand of modem?
(on motorola sometimes its as easy as unplugging the modem for about a minute, it lets the modem reset itself cause, from what rr told me it can pick up errors sometimes that affects performance)
All depends on what the other use can give you.
ok, i think i get it.....you mean on d/l's from kazaa? then wizz is right, we're all limited at times...
if ur downloading from a crappy source then u will be getting crappy speeds. if u constently getting crappy speeds it could be ur isp, u can check ur speed when ur connected by using something like DUmeter. In sygate firewall it shows me my speeds when im downloading etc which is pritty useful :)
if you have a motorola surfboard cable modem, you can reset it by opening internet explorer and typing in http://192.168.100.1/startupdata.html then you can see all the ins and outs of the modem and reset it from there if you need to :flowers: go under configuration and click restart modem
you can also go to speedguide.net and download or read about & apply some registry tweaks for your cable modem.
