		Does that work with cable ? DSL isin't in my area; it would be but the local company that was backing it where bastards and went bankrupt.

		You really just playing with MTU settings and so....I know I can get you a program that will "assist" you in chaging a WHOLE lot for ANY win32 OS. But....if used wrong you can kill things....this can even tweak external programs and hardware settings too.....Also has settings for internet stuff.

		Did you test these speed increases on single connect only FTPs, or just regular downloads or surfing in general?

		Yea, that things not reliable. I just did a speed test and it says I go at about 4545.5 K bytes/sec. I just aplied the regestry patches for my cable modem, but I don't belive for a second they made my connection THAT fast.

		If you use IE hold the ctrl key when you refresh the page or you will get this unbelieveable speed. It was quite accurate for me (96kB max normally) : approximately 760 Kbps or 95 K bytes/sec. By simple reloading the page: 2272.7 K bytes/sec (would be nice to have this)
