How can i increase my internet if i have a dsl modem.?
I have a dsl modem i run a speed test and it told me that my speed is 500 kpbs
is there any trick that i can make to increase my speed
Maybe i could change the configuration of my modem or something
or my speed really depends in my dsl modem
my dsl modem is speedstream 5100
you can watch in this page:

please help me out i don't think that software can increase my speed.
Maybe i shoul try to use a different dsl modem|||You can increase your speed by fine tuning your computer. For example, when was the last time you ran disk cleanup or disk defragmenter? Next right click your task bar, select task manager and tell me how many programs you have running. If it is over 42, that is too many and it slows you down. To stop junk from running at startup, if you have XP type "msconfig" in the run box. Then click the startup tab. Uncheck all the boxes and restart.
You may have to recheck some of the boxes if, for example, your printer stops working.|||Download this free program called TCP Optimizer. It lets you optimize your Internet settings in your registry for DSL. DSL is like sharing a highway with allot of people, there will be bottle necks and slow downs, only so much you can do. Chow

What determines maximum DSL internet speed?
My dad is currently subscribed to the 3mbps DSL service from our local telephone company (Hawaiian telcom), I recently found out that they offer a 7mbps and an 11mbps DSL service. I called Hawaiian telcom to ask if we could get the 11mbps service, and they said that our line can only support a speed of 1.5mbps, but I tested the download speed of our 3mbps service and was able to download files at the advertised speed of 3mbps. Why was the phone company giving false information? and what is required for the line to be able to provide 7mbps or 11mbps?|||The distance between your location and the location of the "divider box" (sorry, but I do not know what the correct English word would be for it) in your area determines the maximum speed of your DSL connection, as well as the internals of this "divider box" itself. If it is shared with many users in your area, the speed will drop as well. Your Internet Service Provider will not lie to you about the maximum speed, as they will always want to try to sell you the most expensive subscription of course. You can test your download and upload speed at http://www.speedtest.net. If the speed is higher than what you were told, contact them and tell them that the speed is higher than they claim is possible. Still, it might be that 3 Mbps is the maximum possible for your location.|||The distance from the nearest phone company switching station (exchange) and the line power determine the top speed the ISP can offer. Real world speed depends on the internet itself and your computer.
You are probably too far away from the exchange for 11mbps speed. Why do you think you need that much speed? If you are streaming hd video, maybe cable would be a better choice.

Bittorrent speed drops rapidly on AT&T DSL?
I download torrents (cant stress this enough THE LEGAL STUFF). When my speed is at around 200kbs for a while, it suddenly drops to less then 4kbs. Same with my upload speed. I ran an online speed test to see if my speed is messed up. But it turns out that my internet is fine. I also run PG2 so i don't get corrupt peers. Whats going on? All the trackers appear to be fine too.|||It can be a matter of your internet traffic. Your ISP might be throttling your connection. It's not fully legal or illegal, but it's what they are allowed to do.
By using P2P programs, the company will likely associate you with downloading illegal files. Likely, your ISP is throttling the P2P connection, which would result in randomness in speeds.|||Comcast decided to do throttling to ppl using 70% of their bandwidth now b/c their bandwidth cap wasn't working enough to their needs|||try to uninstall bittorrent and get ultorrent its way better doesnt do that 200 staight to 4kb/s thing.

Am I the only one getting stupidly slow DSL speeds on ATT- Yahoo dsl service ?
Download time from texas to atlanta: 4.5mb ..texas to chicago: 3.1 mb. Varies up and down every speed test.and various locations..never reaches 5.0 Mbps
http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/|||Same here. My download speed hovers around 100KB/s, which is ridiculous for $30/mo. I'm fed up with ATT but there seems to be no better alternative.|||There are many components that could be making your internet seem slow.
1. There are A LOT of people online. (Seems dumb, but it does have an effect sometimes).
2. Your computer is slowing you down.
-Try to delete cookies and any excess files you have laying around your computer.
-Defragment your hard drive.
-Restart your computer.|||i'm right there with you brother
I used to have their "uverse" and it rocks for speed, but ping isn't any better (necessarily)
now I moved out of that range and am stuck with their dsl, does your router reset a lot? i think they're scamming me, either way i'm P'O'd

Please estimate my internet speed for a laptop (using router)?
Ok, I recently ordered laptop+router and was wondering how much of internet speed I would be able to get. I need some expertise on this, so please do not say it's going to be fast enough / just wait for it to come blah blah etc.
First, my wired DSL speed for main desktop (I ran speed test):
2.54Mbps (430kbps for upload)
Second, my laptop's wireless card: Intel 4965AGN Wireless-N Mini-card (supposedly 300Mbps is max, but we know it's not gonna happen)
Third, my router: Linksys WRT160N Wireless Router (not much of an idea how good this is, but we know it's better than normal G's)
Fourth, I will be using this laptop in my room, which is about 20~25ft away from where router will be (plus 1 wall in the way).
Thank you!|||your bottle neck will be your internet connection speed. You can only be as fast as your weakest link. it doesn't matter what type of ethernet card you have (10/100, 1000, wireless g or n) you are only going to get what your internet connection allows. if you are transferring data around on your internal network it will be alot faster than transferring over the internet.|||you should get around the same or close to what your desktop is getting|||speed test. www://toast.net|||First it depend on bandwidth speed you receive if you do not know your bandwidth speed test it here

The wall will not make any difference unless you are using
WI-Fi ,wireless ,then it depend on wall materials ,also metal and electronic stuff that disturbs your radio frequency,,including TV and cell phone microwave....
IF you are using N card with G router ,it does not make much of different than using G card and G router ,You get advantage for quantity(distance a bit) Not quality(better range may.be)..
if you want max speed you Must have N card with N router.
20 to 25 feet away is descent distance,,
I would recommend Airport Extreme Router ,I use it for classrooms Wi-Fi it is very stable and good speed.I tried D-link and Sys-link also Balkini ..connection was not stable at all I replace them with Airport I got great result.|||Unless ALL the equipment is from the same manufacturer your speed will be limited to G standard 54Mbps. This is much faster than your connection.

My dsl tests at .52mb/s, why is actual download speed only 20kb/s?
I'm paying for about .5 mb/s that I'm not getting, I don't get it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.|||You've got to differentiate between megabits (Mbps) and megabytes (MBps). ISP's advertise in megabits so they can look better than they really are. A bit is 1/8 of a byte, and so when you're downloading in firefox/IE, and it says 20 KB/s, thats 20 kilobytes, which is 160 kilobits. Granted, that is less than 500 kilobits, but you see the issue. The best speed you could hope for is 500/8, or 62.5 KB/s.|||As a rule of thumb:
(Download speed divided by 10) minus 20 to 25% = average download speed
So the download speed of a broadband connection with 500kbps (0.5Mbps) results in:
(500 / 10) * 0.80 = 40 kBps resp. (500 / 10) * 0.75 = 37.5 kBps
I reach with my 8Mbps link a download speed of around 820kbps, it all depends on the overbooking the provider makes. If you live in a crowded area it is possible the speeds are lower, Of course it also depends on the connection of the remote server where you connect to.
It looks indeed your connection is a bit slow
