First of all i would like to thank VanBuren for his Guide which speeded up my connection by a staggering %125.

This Teusday i got  Telestra BigPond Cable, i thought i would be very fast, but even after tweaking my connection it never goes 180kb's+. My ISP now says thats the average i can expect whilst my friend on the exact same connection goes 400kbs average. can anyone help me =(

Hey dagger and welcome to the forum Smile

thank you, always fun when ppl reporting back good speed increasing. Most of the time ppl reporting back, when it dosent help at all or speed got even worce

 Laughing

Do you use any tweaks after you changed to Telestra BigPond Cable? If you use same tweak as you had with your previous ISP it might be in conflict.

Best way is to open cablenut, click delete cablenut tweaks + click save to registry and reboot.

Now check speed, and follow the tweak guide, make sure to find the right MSS value and then use one of my custom files.

Post score before and after tweaks

good luck

Smile My guess is you have to  tell the computer that the nic card is installed....and yes when I have run my connection with a USB port it was always slower.....have you gone into control panel to network connections to verify that your systems is setup for your connection??

Go to your control panel and add the hardware manually.

It may, but I would say that's a little extreme for something so petty. Did you try installing it manually like I told you?
