AT&T West → Re: Does this sound all too familiar?

What is your upload speed? I am 17800 feet from Co and upload is 109 which is pretty good. Is that about what your at?

What kind of network hardware/software are YOU running?
I now get 95kb uploads, after 'bleeding' the modem overnight (Unplugging the power and phone line with the computer off).
That's the highest yet. Previously I could not top 55k. But this was early in the morning, so we will see what happens this evening. I am not too optimistic.

Im using a 4060 USB modem,Windows 98, 266 mghtz puter, but instead of enternet I use raspppoe. What could also be slowing you down is if you had a 56k modem connection before and you tweaked the registry for it. Even though one tweaks it for dsl the registry still contains the tweaks for 56k,thus those need to be removed.

We got the same setup, though I am running a PIII.. I went to speedguide.com and downloaded the patch the sets registry to default, then installed the one for PPPoE for W98SE. I have tried others, like Navas, and RWIN patches here, Dr. TCP, etc....not much difference there.

If I can keep close to 100k for uploads, and my downloads don't slip below about 500k I would be happy.

I have considered going with a different external modem that uses the NIC card, like the Westell, or another. Just a thought.
