Re: Back up in Milwaukee
How far from the CO are you? I am 18,600 feet and TDS was able to get me DSL. Unfortunately, I'm only getting about 107KB download speeds with around 400 upload.
Obviously, I'd like the download speed to be faster. I've tried the RWIN and MTU tweaks and they don't seem to help.
Any ideas?
Thanks. |

|  Sorry, I did not reply. I just did another post. But to answer your tweak question. I checked out my settings and they are at optimal right now. I have Windows 2000 and had to do no tweaking. I also see you were with Velotel. I was bummed at the way they handled the Northpoint shutdown. I spent 250 dollars for hookup and only had 5 months of DSL through NorthPoint. Good luck on your new connection. |

| Yeah, I had Velotel from December until March. I was mainly pissed because they just simply ignored their customers and didn't answer the phone the day after shutdown. Pretty shitty if you ask me.
I didn't know TDS would open a ticket with Ameritech. I was told by some of the techs that my problem probably has to do with the distance I am from the CO.
Did you need to open a ticket to get the 600 DL speed or did it come up that way?
I'm just west of HWY 100. How about you?
Thanks for all the input. |
