By the way, Headhunter has both Sprint DSL and Patriot Cable and is testing both. This thread is about dual service testing and he's cross posting in both forums - as am I on this same issue.

But thanks.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-ds-12358253 Tue, 11 Jan 2005 21:15:01 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-ds-12349294 said by YipYipper:

I'm struggling with very poor Sprint performance out of Lebanon area tonight. I'm running manual tracert and ping test - can you suggest a better 'monitor'?
Ping Plotter is good for monitoring. It does the same thing as tracert and ping, but in a graphical, repetative manner. Check it out.

Also, if you are having problems with Sprint DSL, you should post questions in Sprint's BBR Forum and not in Patriot Media's forum.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-ds-12349294 Mon, 10 Jan 2005 23:25:33 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-dsl-12348851 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-dsl-12348851 Mon, 10 Jan 2005 22:44:24 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-dsl-12348667 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-dsl-12348667 Mon, 10 Jan 2005 22:27:01 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-ds-12335600 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-ds-12335600 Sun, 09 Jan 2005 13:36:56 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-dsl-12334311
I wish, however, they would increase the upload to around 1 MB/sec for my VPN use (but that is for a different thread). A side note, the digital TV is very good and VOD is great (watched Chronicles of Riddick over the New Year's weekend). The picture was clear, the sound was in Dolby Digital, and there was no pixelization or interruptions (I do not yet own an HDTV so I can't comment on that). In short, I am a very satisfied customer. Hope this helps.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-dsl-12334311 Sun, 09 Jan 2005 10:13:39 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-ds-12333159 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-ds-12333159 Sun, 09 Jan 2005 01:58:23 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-ds-12331869
Anyway, Patmedia has been rock-solid for the past 2 or so months for me. I did have a problem, but it was on my end dealing with a Netgear and centrino/intel wireless card problem, NOT with patmedia.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-ds-12331869 Sat, 08 Jan 2005 22:33:47 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-ds-12331682 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-ds-12331682 Sat, 08 Jan 2005 22:10:51 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-ds-12330938 Company entry - Patriot Media.

So far you're the only real fan... I hope you're right! I'm not disconnecting from Sprint for a while, til I'm sure I'm not going into the fire from the frying pan. But it sure would be nice to switch!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-ds-12330938 Sat, 08 Jan 2005 20:29:24 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-ds-12329490
Best of luck with your testing!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-ds-12329490 Sat, 08 Jan 2005 16:54:21 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-ds-12328826 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-ds-12328826 Sat, 08 Jan 2005 15:28:58 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-ds-12328748
Now, I'm not exactly sure how Windows (I assume that is what you are using...) will select which interface to use for Internet access if both connections are active. My guess is that it will go with the interface with the public IP assigned to it (connected to your Patriot modem), so you should be alright!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-ds-12328748 Sat, 08 Jan 2005 15:16:02 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-dsl-12328678
My setup is a small LAN on a Linksys wired router connected to the Sprint DSL modem. I disconnected one of my pc's from the router and I'm using it to connect directly to my new PatMedia/Moto cable modem while I do this testing. (For reference purposes, I'll call this pc the PM/PC.) Everything works fine. Here's where I'd like to go above and beyond...

I'd like to put the PM/PC back onto my LAN via the Linksys router without disconnecting it from PatMedia, and without disconnecting the LAN from Sprint's DSL modem. If this is possible, how would I do it? (I'm guessing I need one more EtherNet card.) I don't care whether the other pc's can connect to PatMedia, as long as I can keep using the PM/PC to continue testing PatMedia. (The PM/PC has stuff on it that my other pc's need access to... thus my dilemma... Not that I can't survive without a solution since this test setup is temporary.)

Thanks for any suggestions. I'm pretty astute about this stuff, but my LAN/WAN knowledge is lacking.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/HSI-Help-with-dual-service-test-cable-dsl-12328678 Sat, 08 Jan 2005 15:05:54 EDT
