There probably isn't much more speed lying around.  What are your caps?  If you are on a 4mb/s line, that is about as good as it will get.  

If you are on a higher cap, then let me know.

Yeah I have Adelphia too and was wondering if it could get any faster well at least my upload. I play some X-box games live and need upload download not that important to me.. This is whats advertised with the package I have. Any tweaks or anything I can do?

Premier High-Speed Internet addresses these types of internet usage with download speeds of up to 4 Mbps, and upload speeds of up to 512 Kbps.

My upload

Your connection is:      549  Kbps      (about 0.5 Mbps)
You uploaded at:    67 kB/s
Your TRuSPEED™: ^info^    615 Kbps :: 75 kB/s (12% overhead factored)
Bottom Line:    You are running: 10 times faster than 56K and can upload 1 megabyte in 15.28 second(s)

Looks like you are getting what you pay for Wink ~~ Does Adelphia in your area offer 5Mbps / 768 Kbps package yet? ~~ If so you should be able to upgrade for about 15/month ~~ maybe if you game enough it would be worth it to you.  Any tweaks that we would tell you would involve windows... your XBOX may run slower than what you are getting with your PC.

So far this is the highest package available I pay $99.01 including cable so Im not sure if I would pay more thats why I was looking to tweak it if it was possible. I usually get ove 5mb download when I do my test here but the upload is just plain weak!!  So I guess if tweaks dont help im sol but thanks for  the info.

Your upload weak?! Man. Look, this is worth whining over:

::::::::::.. Upload Stats ..::::::::::
Connection is: 99 Kbps about 0.1 Mbps (tested with 386 KB)
Upload Speed is: 12 kB/s
Tested From:: http://www.testmy.net/
Bottom Line: 2 times faster than 56K you can upload 1MB in 85.33 second(s)
Validation Link :: http://testmy.net/cgi-bin/get.cgi?Test_ID=JQP4HX5TC

Advertised: 384 Kbps

IIRC there are some upload tweaks, and they can be found here.

Guess its not bad but hey for 70 bucks a month I would like some more. The only reason I want upload is for x-box download is more than enough but I would like to get to the 700 area.. Guess I will have to wait?

624 is more than enought to do just about anything...  Xbox should be able to run fairly big games depending on what game it is... I think you should be able to run a 16 player halo game with no problems..

My dad pays 50 euros, and I get that. I've even got a 12 Kbps score once, that was really rediculous.

624 would be nice but I only get like 520, I play Ghost Recon and I need like 700 or above to hold 12 people with full explosives right now I can only hold 8 maybe 9 with no explosives.

I think there is something else going on as far as GR because with my stats of 355KB upload I can do a 16 players you might see if you video card is causing the problems
and when hosting it will only run as fast as the slowest connection
