Hi there, what is the exact date of you purchasing/ordering the new internet speed?

Also what router/modem do you currently have?

MofoKilla · 16 Apr 2007 at 18:16

erm the upgrade was done on the 9th of this month.
the router is Linksys WAG54GS. the download speeds from proper servers is good at around 650k but torrents and ping on css etc are worse than befor ...

Does the router say if you're currently using fast or interleaved mode?

how do i find out ?? is it in router settings?

Yes, it'll probably be in the web interface if it's anywhere.

Ahh...
650kb/s is fine for 8mbps

Well, what servers are you pinging to, where are they located?
And what sort of pings are you getting?

You should be getting a ping of 10 - 60ms from your house, to a server in the UK

The torrent speeds really depend on how many seeds there are, less seeders there are, the lower speeds you probably will get.

Along with SNR margin and attenuation, I'd imagine. "WAN/ADSL status"?

Either way, Nildram should be able to a) tell you if you're currently on interleaving and b) have it disabled.

mostly uk css servers i used to get ping of around 20-30 now its 60-70 :confused:

its the torrent speeds that are really poor thou for some reason 10kb at most
