Caps are the limits put on the speed with which you can upload and download. Its important to know this so it can be properly assessed whether you are being screwed or not. I would make a call to your ISP first to get this info then tell them what your speeds are..then if all else fails look into using speed tweaks. good luck

next you need to find out if you are using PPPoe which your ISP can tell you if you are or not. The link to the tweaks site is below but make sure you find out if you are using PPPoe before you do anything.

bits and bytes are the rate with which you get throughput over the internet. you need to find out the difference. as for PPPoe here is the definition.

Point to Point Protocol over Ethernet is a proposal specifying how a host personal computer (PC) interacts with a broadband modem (i.e. xDSL, cable, wireless, etc) to achieve access to the growing number of Highspeed data networks. Relying on two widely accepted standards, Ethernet and the point-to-point protocol (PPP), the PPPoE implementation requires virtually no more knowledge on the part of the end user other than that required for standard Dialup Internet access. In addition, PPPoE requires no major changes in the operational model for Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and carriers.

The significance of PPP over Ethernet has to do with its far greater ease of use versus competing approaches. By making high speed access easier to use for end consumers, and more seamless to integrate into the existing infrastructure for carriers and ISPs, PPPoE could speed the widespread adoption of Highspeed access services.

Also, PPP over Ethernet provides a major advantage for service providers by maximizing integration with - and minimizing disruption of - service providers' existing dial network infrastructures. Through tight integration with existing back office automation tools that ISPs have developed for dial customers, PPPoE enables rapid service deployment and cost savings. From authentication, accounting and secure access to configuration management, PPPoE supports a broad range of existing applications and services.

For bits and bytes link above
PPPoE:
PPPoE ( Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet ) is a method for building PPP sessions and encapsulating packets, as described in RFC2516. Although it is not a standard, PPPoE is already being used by a number of DSL providers. It requires either routers that have built-in PPPoE support, or PPPoE software to "dial up" and establish the session.

Note: If your ISP has implemented PPPoE and you are tweaking the Windows Registry, note that PPPoE supports MaxMTU=1492 or less, rather than 1500.

Call your cable provider and make sure you use PPPoE, not PPP. I know you think this is a hassle but without right information we cannot tell you what you need. :)

If your not going to call and just ask questions all day, go ahead

PPP is used w/ dial-up
PPPoE is used by some DSL providers

zmbs, if you don't have to "log on" to use your DSL, you are not on a PPPoE DSL connection.

what is meant by "log in" is if you have to enter a username and password to connect to the internet then thats a "log in"

Have you tried any tweaks? http://www.speedguide.net/Cable_modems/cable_patches.shtml

What are your caps and who is your provider? Contact your provider for cap info.
