Re: [TWC] TW SoCal roller coaster speeds UPDATE
I am in Arcadia and am experiencing the same thing. I upgraded to Turbo and am getting around 5000 kb DL and like 1500 kb UL. Most times it's around 2500 DL. When I upgraded the service I did not get a new modem. Sould I have? Also, what is modem provisioning and how can I check mine? Sorry for the newbie questions  |

This is what I got today. The UL is awesome but the DL is still half of what I am paying for. |

This appears to be what my "normal" Turbo is for the moment. Just want to take a moment to thank all those who took time to respond to my original post. MacLeech: I, for one, do appreciate your contributions to the forum. There's comfort, no matter how small, in knowing there's at least one person inside TW who seems to care about their service and will put himself in the line of fire. |

I'm using vista and it said it's not advisable to run the tweaks test.
Here is my latest:
This I can live with. It just seems to be so random. When I upgraded to Turbo should I have gotten a different modem? Right now I have the Motorola SB5101 |

Right now I have the Motorola SB5101 The Moto 5101 will run Turbo just fine. Adelphia was using them for 16/2 without issue (if the firmware was higher then 1.1.1.1 some shipped with).
If you log into the the RR account management page, what Bandwidth class does it say you're configured with?

BTW, The tweaks page says "Vista TCP tuning (tweaking) is NOT advisable" but I'd still like to see the results of the test. It's the actual tweaking that's not advised, not the testing. |

| Mac,
First off, thank you for taking the time to help me. I really appreciate it. Here are the results of the tweak test:
1. Your Tweakable SettingsReceive Window (RWIN): 261340
Window Scaling: 2
Path MTU Discovery: ON
RFC1323 Window Scaling: ON
RFC1323 Time Stamping: OFF
Selective Acks: ON
MSS requested: 1460
TTL: unknown
TTL remaining: 111
TOS flags: none set
2. Test DownloadActual data bytes sent: 1024001
Actual data packets: 703
Max packet sent (MTU): 1500
Max packet recd (MTU): 1500
Retransmitted packets: 0
sacks you sent: 0
pushed data pkts: 107
data transmit time: 5.225 secs
our max idletime: 230.9 ms
transfer rate: 182165 bytes/sec
transfer rate: 1457 kbits/sec
transfer efficiency: 100%
3. ICMP (ping) check Target unpingable
If your IP could be pinged then we hit it with various streams to identify any loss, or exessive jitter from our server.
4. Notes and Recommendations Choose RWIN between 94900 and 251120 (FAQ #586)
Vista has no tunable TCP settings
Read the tweak FAQ
Observations:
Good data stream (no/few rexmits)
Observations:
Become pingable
if you need basic packet loss tests done
Check tweak FAQ
When I went to login to the RR Account Maintenance page the only option it gave me was to change password. I will try again later and let you know what my modem is provisioned for.
Thanks again! |

SoCal | The tweak test results are good. Nothing unusual.
Can you post a tracert to 209.244.0.3 ?
How are pings to your 2nd hop from that trace?
Run "ping -n 100 ip address" and post the final results please. |

THEN ping the 2nd hop that shows up in tracert. You should post this information so that he doesn't have to ask you for it then you have to wait more time before he can help you out. |
