wolfbayou and justinlay-
I am running DirecWay and cannot really get speeds faster than the following:

::::::::::.. Download Stats ..::::::::::
Connection is:: 1029 Kbps about 1 Mbps (tested with 579 KB)
Download Speed is:: 126 kB/sec
Tested From:: http://www.testmy.net/
Bottom Line:: 18 times faster than 56K you can download 1MB in 8.13 second(s)
Validation Link:: http://testmy.net/cgi-bin/get.cgi?Test_ID=WMDVBEJFG

I was just wondering what hardware you have connected (including anything about your send/receive modem models, your computer system, etc) and if you have changed any settings to optimize the DirecWay connection. Also, are you paying for upgraded DirecWay professional service or is this the regular home service? Thanks in advance for your reply.

- I miss having cable internet SO badly, and Comcast will not run service out to our new house.

my upload is slower than hell. I was on the phone with DirecWay for 2 hours yesterday to get a 2kB/s faster upload. I hit 8kB/s yesterday. Are you using the two way receiver or the new DW6000?

I am using the DirecWay 4000 and sharing the connection with a network using Microsoft ICS on a WinXP machine. I gained a little speed using DrTCP to change those receive settings. I am now up to around 1.4-1.6 Mbps.
