Broad band speed problem??

Charley · 19-02-2005, 06:26 PM

I've taken the Dataone connect from BSNL. The speed is supposed to be 256kpbs, but even though i have an old system P-133mhz the speed is only abt 159-170kpbs. My friends also who have latest configs get the same speed ... Is it beacuse of the provider or what .. Cant understand why so less

drgrudge · 19-02-2005, 10:18 PM

Man, i have no such problems (i can connect at 252 kbps), but others in chennai say the same thing....

They say by 10 days to make it proper. Keep ur fingers crossed....

@chacko : have u tried actually overclocking ur 133 . change the jumpers to 150 and then 166 and check which is more stable . this isnt to boost ur net performance , but over all performance on ur pc . btw which os and browser u using ? try opera any version 5 or older for ur config .

hack expert · 20-02-2005, 09:12 AM

as suggested opera is very good also for downloads try leechget or flashget
btw are u talking about the connection speed
n wat speed do u get while downloading some thing

Charley · 20-02-2005, 02:00 PM

Dude, how do i chage that to the 166 using jumpers? What shud i do?

And regdg speed for 256kpbs plan from BSNL, dont u laugh ... I used to get a whopping 20-25kpbs for some time and now 8kpbs, hows that !!

Many of my friends have the same problem too. I have IE5 in the system .....

drgrudge · 20-02-2005, 02:03 PM

I have no such problem, i get around 29-33kbps!!!

As i have told u, it takes time to restore normality, wait for some time and see the speed.

Ur a lucky one dude of the lot........LOL

I have downlaod problems too. When I download any file or softie from the net, it completes the download , but the file when opened says this program has performed an illegal operation and will be closed... Some errors r mentioned too .. Then a msg it is due to restrictions on your computer.. Please contact system adminstratr..

I'd had this same problem when i used the ENternet 300 for logging then I reduced the firewall level to medium then it worked fine. That software got corrupt and i'm using the modem[Huawei] config for connection and same problem.. Can u help me dude....

@achacko

u better ask BSNL customer about it.... my frnds use it.... they got it on their home Ph line.... they say if u find (pick up the riciver) chrechi noise over the phone then their is some line pro....

as i said u better ask BSNL....

pradeep_chauhan · 20-02-2005, 02:09 PM

The " chrechi noise over the phone" is when you connect a phone BEFORE the data/phone spliter given along with the modem. This also causes problems in data downloads check that the phone line comes first to the splitter and then goes to all the telephones also note there are no parallel phones connected to the tele line before the splitter.

Charley · 20-02-2005, 02:16 PM

They've tried everyhing abt 5-10 times.. right now they've given a direct connection to the pole in the bldg to check it .... The same though....

Guys pls check the quote i mentioned to dr.grudge just 2 msgs above and give me a suggestion on what cud be the problem or a soln..

I've Wind 98 sec edtion in my systm, P-133 mhz, 64mb ram...

Man, it depends also on the server you're downloading from, its geographical locations and its current load. Try a connection speed benchmark from a couple of sites to get an average. 7kbps on an ADSL connection.

paul_007 · 24-02-2005, 07:29 PM

sify people r offering 256kbps ,700mb limit for 2 months
now my ques is that does the size of temporory internet files which r saved while browsing and saving images frm web pages by right click\saveas will be included in 700 mb ??
