High speed Internet

[Guardian360]

Alright so this isn't the 1st time i post something like this, but now that i understand what kpbs is an KB/sec is i know exactly how much speed my download should be. I have purchased a 7mbps connection which is equal to 875kb/sec download speed. I am only getting 80KB/sec, which is kind of occured... here is my A.Report

I'm sorry to be asking this again, its just that my connection was changed and now i have a problem. Is there anyway to fixing this without the analyzer?

Then select "Apply Changes" and reboot to take effect

This is bullshit i still get 80KB/sec, while i'm supose to get more...way more. Bad enough i had my ISP hang up on me while im trying to get the service i need. is there another way then this TCP Optimizer? I don't get why it's so slow.

[YARDofSTUF]

Do a speed test at www.speedtest.net and copy/paste the results.

[Guardian360]

can't copy the window.....ill write it out instead...
Download 660kb/sec
upload 378kb/sec
ping 50ms
distance 300mi

[Guardian360]

i take it as my ISP provider is screwing me over....?

[YARDofSTUF]

Do you use torrents, leave them running a lot?

Have a router or firewall? Antivirus/adware scanners?

[YARDofSTUF]

i take it as my ISP provider is screwing me over....?

Could be a lot of reasons, hopefully we can narrow it down.

[Guardian360]

No Torrents at all. Is there any other way of fixing this connection? i hate calling my ISP provider they never seem to help or answer my question

[YARDofSTUF]

No Torrents at all.

What about my other questions?

[Guardian360]

have wireless router, even without it still gives me same ****. got mcafee virus scan, and firewall is ON.

[YARDofSTUF]

Run spybot, windows defender, and super antispyware, then do a tracert to yahoo.com in a cmd window.

In the cmd widow when its done right click and select "mark" Then select the text and copy it and paste it here.

Log into your modem/router and disable built-in firewall, also disable Windows Firewall.

[Guardian360]

how do i disable modems firewall? type ip address? cuz that doesnt help considering i have a belkin router, i need to reset the wireless in order to do so.....which is stupid i find

[YeOldeStonecat]

Your modem may or may not have a firewall...depends on if it's a pure bridged modem (in which case there is no firewall)...or a combo modem router..in which case it's running NAT. Also your Belkin router has a firewall..NAT. That's how broadband routers work..via NAT, you don't want to disable that.

What make/modem modem do you have? If it's a combo modem/router..and you've added your Belkin router to that mix...there's a problem there...you're running double NAT. Not your ISPs fault.

[Guardian360]

My Modems speedstream 4200, and wireless belkin g router. Even if i remove windows firewall i still get "request timed out".

[YeOldeStonecat]

My Modems speedstream 4200, and wireless belkin g router. Even if i remove windows firewall i still get "request timed out".

Ahh...and does your Belkin router obtain a public IP address on the WAN interface.....or another private IP address? (192.168.xxx.xxx)

[Guardian360]

I'm not sure to tell you the truth. When i type CMD on Run then ipconfig my Ip address is 192.168.2.13 ...for some reason it's supose to be 192.168.2.1 (not13) but i don't think that would make much difference though.

[trogers]

Speedstream 4200 has a built-in router and firewall. Your tracert from hop 2 is blocked by this firewall.

You need to connect your comp directly to the speedstream, log into it and set it into bridge mode to turn off its firewall. Save and reboot the speedstream.

Then connect the belkin to the speedstream. Press the reset button at the rear of the belkin for 5 seconds and release to let it acquire a public WAN IP address from the speedstream. Connect comp to the belkin and you should connect normally.

[Guardian360]

how do i log into my speedstream? where do i even go? sorry noob question...

[Guardian360]

Like how to i go into bridge mode?i have no idea where to go...

[Guardian360]

alright nvm i got it working, sorry about that, here's my tracert www.yahoo.com

Was this tracert done without the Belkin? Because the router IP address of 192.168.1.1 at hop 1 is no longer present.

Ping times at the modem in hop 1 of this tracert shows high and uneven ping times.

Scan comp for possible malware.

[Guardian360]

yup belkin is on as well...or connected. Ill scan for malware, then what?

[Guardian360]

this is what i have on Ipconfig

Your Belkin has not reset to factory default. If it has reset, Default Gateway would have become 192.168.1.1 and your DHCP served IP address would have been 192.168.1.x

Did you connect your Belkin to the Speedstream with a crossover cable? Or with a normal blue colour CAT6 cable?

[Guardian360]

normal blue colour CAT6 cable

[Guardian360]

do i restor factory defaults?

[trogers]

do i restor factory defaults?

Just press the reset button at the rear of the Belikin for 5 seconds with it's power on to reset it to factory defaults.

[Guardian360]

even if i reset it , it still gives me the same problem.

[trogers]

even if i reset it , it still gives me the same problem.

This is what I have on my comp. My connection to the router is through my Nic (ethernet adapter) and that is why its physical address is shown.

Your connection is through "Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection 2" with "PPP adapter DSL". What is your Local Area Connection 1?

[Guardian360]

Local Area connection 2

[Guardian360]

just tell me what u do step by step, on getting your connection speed. that way i don't have to ask so many questions.

[trogers]

just tell me what u do step by step, on getting your connection speed. that way i don't have to ask so many questions.

I suspect you are connecting your comp to the router through some software and it is shown as Local Area Connection 2. Your direct Nic to router connection is probably Local Area Connection 1.

I do not run such a software and connect directly through my Nic and thus have only Ethernet Adapter Local Area Connection. This should be the correct way to connect to your router.

[Guardian360]

the only reason why its local area connection 2 is because my ethernet busted and had it replaced with a new one, and ever since it was are connection 2. im not using any software to connect, i don't even believe there is any. But i have read up on articles concerning bell and how many ppl are getting screwed by the internet service. Even while doing speed test i notice its not the required speed i need, its a lot less then what i asked for.

[Guardian360]

even by tweaking the most i can get is maybe 1kb more.. pluss i also noticed when i only have my router on it still gives me same internet speed, so my wireless is fine. I would rather hack my internet connection at this point to tell you the truth. But thats all i need is my ISP giving my a fee and canceling.
