    Unhappy Slow connection

    Can anyone help me?
    I have just been connected to a cable modem and it is running very slow. On speed tests at Bandwidthplace.com I'm getting 4 kilobytes sec. About the same as my dial-up was. I talked to my cable/internet people and they say everything is running fine at their end and all my settings are right..
    I have a Pentium 200mmx running Windows 98 and have 64meg of ram.
    Here are the results from the sc tcp/ip analyzer.Main

    SpeedGuide.net TCP/IP Analyzer

    TCP properties for IP = ()
    Note: Read the FAQ if the above is not your IP address.
    Browser/OS = Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; m18) Gecko/20010131 Netscape6/6.01

    TCP options string = 020405b401010402

    MTU = 1500
    MTU is fully optimized for broadband.

    MSS = 1460
    Maximum useful data in each packet = 1460, which is equal to MSS.

    Default Receive Window (RWIN) = 2144
    RWIN Scaling (RFC1323) = 0 bits
    Unscaled Receive Window = 2144
    For optimum performance, consider changing RWIN to a multiple of MSS.
    Other values for RWIN that might work well with your current MTU/MSS:
    513920 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 8)
    256960 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 4)
    128480 (MSS x 44 * scale factor of 2)
    64240 (MSS x 44)

    bandwidth * delay product:
    Your RcvWindow limits you to: 85.76 kbps (10.72 KBytes/s) @ 200ms
    Your RcvWindow limits you to: 34.304 kbps (4.288 KBytes/s) @ 500ms
    Consider increasing your RWIN value to optimize TCP/IP for broadband.

    MTU Discovery (RFC1191) = ON

    Time to live left = 110 hops
    TTL value is ok.

    Timestamps (RFC1323) = OFF

    Selective Acknowledgements (RFC2018) = ON

    IP type of service field (RFC1349)= 00000000

    20862 connections tested since 03.10.2001.

    Analyzer version: Beta 0.99

    Click on help thread below in signature and follow directions exactly, please leave your OS and system specs if you have not done so.Also if you have Cablenuts adjuster installed I need to know that. There are some Tips and how to do speed test on help thread. Thank you and good luck.
