Re: OOL FTP speed test is BULLSHIT

"ME: i did this without a router
Charlie: And?
ME: i think it is the modem than can be causing the first timeout
Charlie: No. The first time out is the router the modem is connecting to. Some of these prevent pinging/tracert as a security measure."
-------------

Obviously Charlie does not read very well. No router. So how is the timeout on the first hop a router?
-------------
Also, as I mentioned before, where is your 10.x hop to the CMTS? Like you friend?
10.45.0.1 2 5 ms 5 ms 6 ms dstswr1-vlan2.rh.nyk3ny.cv.net

Is that first dead hop the 10.x IP ?????

Well a CMTS works as a router of sorts, and I assume that is what he was referring to when he said "Some of these prevent pinging/tracert as a security measure."

The fact that the CMTS does not respond to to the tracert is not important since every ICMP that goes through it is low while still on the OOL network. If he entered a name in the host file for 10.45.0.1 it might not time out, but it also might be for security reasons not responding to the ICMP. If he can PING 10.45.0.1 and it answers then maybe a reverse DNS problem.
For a good reference on tracert

TWG, I just don't buy it. I have never seen a tracert like that where the first hop (CMTS) is dead. Why would with all the CMTS's that OOL has block his? Makes no sense.

His friend is on the same CMTS (pretty sure), look at his tracert. It responds fine.

If he can ping the Default Gateway, it is either a very slow rDNS or some type of firewall on his box that is blocking responses from the 10.x domain. I think some of the routers do this because it is a Private IP coming in from the WAN, they log it as IP spoofing.

The MTU Path discovery should be on.

»monitor.dslreports.com/tweak/blo···a=normal is the more appropriate way of answering the questions. You won't see any warnings. You are using ethernet, not enternet as what you selected in the drop-down.

Though MTU Discovery is off, it's picking the right value, but safe for it to be on.

In Northern NJ, I'm getting just over 1MB pulling that file down. And I assume you mean you're getting 510KB (not kb).

GeekNJ, what do you think is the problem here. OOL became available in my area 3 weeks ago or so, there shouldn't be that many people using it . What can be causing this?

What is your »speedcheck2.optonline.net/speedc···eck.html OOL Java based test result?

Which modem?

What is your OOL speed test result? = 1.08MB/sec

What is the NYC SpeakEasy test result? = 2002-11-03 16:32:19 EST: 4086 / 936
Your download speed : 4086991 bps, or 4086 kbps.
A 498.9 KB/sec transfer rate.
Your upload speed : 936183 bps, or 936 kbps.

What is your »speedcheck2.optonline.net/speedcheck/s..[?] OOL Java based test result: == 9206Kbps

Which modem? Motorola SB4200

Which router? Linksys NR041 (NOT USING during these tests)

So the only test that doesn't give you 8mb+ speeds is the Speakeasy test. Do you really care about that one test?

The tests are useful for making sure you're optimally configured, and from the results you posted I'd say yes.

I don't really think there's anything for you to do but enjoy the speed you have.
