| COVAD speed Delivered 
Paying 100.00 a month for DSL phone service with a separate VOIP line.
Running ZyXel Modem with a Linksys Wireless G Router.
Barton 3000+ with 1.5 GB memory
ASUS MOBO
Speed provisioned at 6 MB down 768K upload.
Had "nasty" bad speeds at first-Really was a pisser and the techs at EarthLink didn't care to much to hear me bitchin
Ran a clean CAT5E cable to the TELCO BOX and a new Phone biscuit and new wire to Modem and went from 2.3 to 45-4.6
Naturally- used the tweak guide
DR TCP21 etc.
The twisted pair of CAT5E really cuts out the noise on the line.
Earthlink and COVAD teaming up making the DSL experience
I get similar performance over wireless to a laptop with a linksys wireless card. Look at your wire to the modem and it you're still using the old red,green,black,yellow wiring-change it out and you should see a lot better performance. |
Can't wait until our Covad contract is up..
