My guess is Verizon runs your connection through a Juniper router (on their end). The re-transmissions cause unstable speeds. One more thing you can do to verify it is to run a speed test from »www.speakeasy.net/speedtest. Run one to NY and another to LA (or SF or SEA). You will most likely see good speeds from the West Coast servers and bad ones to the NY server. If so, it is indeed a Juniper.
What you need to do to get around this is download DrTcp (from the Tools section here) and change your Recieve Window (RWIN) to 13068. Save, exit, and reboot. You should now see much better speeds to the NY server. You will lose about half the speed to the West Coast, but your connection will now be stable throughout as the re-transmissions should be gone. |

| Well here is another kicker, I lugged an old (circa 2002) Westell Wirespeed home from work and I get my rated dl speed no matter what. I seriously don't get it.
It obviously isn't a Verizon only problem because I would have had the same result. |

So, when using the Wirespeed modem, your up/dn numbers are always good ? If so it's a fair bet the other modem was a contributing factor, if there's a firmware update available, that might help out. -- reboot, reset, reconfigure, then recycle. |
