You've tweaked your Firefox but have you ...

OMG!!

I went from 1.9 MB to 4.0 MB.

This really works. :)

In which test? To download a 1 MB file? That is totally inaccurate. That could have even been from the cache via your ISP's proxy or your local cache. Also the server load at the times you initiated the test. I seriously doubt that changing your settings would have doubled your speed.

Which DR tcp should Use...

[Twisted.Raven]

Already tweaked.

Would be faster if I were not listen to 128kbps music, playing urban terror online (quake 3), downloading from irc at 103kbps atm and uploading at 20kbps. A third of my max upload btw.

That and its wireless and who knows what my brother is doing on his pc right now. Sure he is at least listen to music at 128kbps and playing urban terror. Sures hes in a few irc channel on enterthegame as well.

1.1 megs to 1.3 thanks :D

[spingmis2004]

Holy cow mine went from 1.2 to 2.4 !! Appreciate your share and everyone else here too

[i0niZ]

I gained just over .2 mbps. Thanks :)

[_I am Reptar]

Went up .3 =)

[mr_skrilla]

WTF?

I'm on 3mbit broadband, and all the speed test give me less than 1.5mbit.

Something must be screwed up with my setting. :(

You have to do a speed test that is close to you (geographically). If you go to DSL reports and look for a speed test that is close to you it will give you a much more accurate speed.

1.1 to 2.5 ... damn!?

[Hankyone]

re-test without any tweaks and u will still get something different

:yes:

to test this i first went to bandwith palace and then to pcpitstop right afterwards.

i tested bandwith palacefirst and got 2.5

then for pc pit stop i got 2.1

then i cleared my cache and cookies and did it again

i got 1.4 for bandwith

2304 kilobits per second pcpitstop

and agian..........

982 kilobits per second bandwith palace

1992 kilobits per second for pcpitstop

after that i can't do anymore of bandwith cause it says limit of 3 test per month per IP adress.

SO, in conclusion, these tests prove jack sh*t. the fact is you won't notice any diffrence from any tweaks out on the net. you may see a tiny boost while playing games, but that's it. they are all mostly adware and spyware anyways

but if you want to believe the complete strangers.............go ahead. i'll just sit back and wait for natural selection to kick in :sleep:

Flaming really?

Please find the part where an insult is directed at you. Then you can call it flaming.

who else is the sarcasim pointed towards? the fact that you put /sarcasm there implies that in that situation i was an idiot for posting something so dumb

yes, i know that you didn't say that exactly, or even close to saying that, but you know as well as i that that's what the /sarcacsm was implying

otherwise, there was no point in posting it now was there?
