I AM NEW TO THE FORUM AND NOT AS ADVANCED AS MOST OF THE POSTS I HAVE READ.
MY PROBLEM IS I HAVE TESTED MY Comcast CABLE CONNECTION AT VARIOUS SITES WITH THE RESULTS VARYING SIGNIFICANTLY.
I RAN  3 BACK TO BACK TESTS AND THEY WERE 
 CONNECTION    3947        2245      696
 DOWNLOAD         482          274        85

I ALSO RAN A FEW UPLOAD TEST AND HERE IS ONE

::::::::::.. Download Stats ..::::::::::
Connection is:: 767 Kbps about 0.8 Mbps (tested with 579 KB)
Download Speed is:: 94 kB/s
Tested From:: http://www.testmy.net/
Bottom Line:: 14 times faster than 56K you can download 1MB in 10.89 second(s)
Validation Link:: http://testmy.net/cgi-bin/get.cgi?Test_ID=TP5KEYC1W

MY SYSTEM IS RUNNING XP ON A PENTIUM 4M 1.7G
THE CONNECTION IS VIA ETHERNET TO Comcast CABLE.
JUST HAD Comcast CHECK THE SIGNAL AND REPLACE THE MODEM.


ANY THOUGHTS ON WHERE TO START?

"LEEV "

You say your on Comcast. Yet every time you post its on a different ip address. This meaning your using aol proxy servers. You cannot take speed tests running thru proxy servers. Now either that is the case, or your just trying to be funny and waste our time.

this is wrong Receive Window (RWIN):     65535

make a screenshot of your cablenut adjuster ( where you see the values )

you can use Print Screen and then open MS Paint and paste it, then save it as a jpg file.

when you attach it to your post click  Additional Options... below and browse to the file you like to attach.

this is what it suppose to look like

Yes I do connect to AOL via Comcast, does that degrade the speed? Should I go directly through IE?
