Do test 1000's of miles away.

Now also DSL on the flash test on some sites say that comcast compress the uploads so it will show a faster speed then you really have.
The Male site speed was really slow.

Guess these are not to bad.


Now they all show the wrong times because you have to keep cookies or and let it keep the flash cookies info on you computer to remember the setting you save.

bump?
What do you mean by "BUMP"? It's been a couple of days now, and there is a lot of items behind mine. I don't know if they are even going to look at mine now.

Speakeasy.net
I did some tweaks from your speed test site from one of the earlier notes I received, and this is what I received from speakeasy.net on the downloads and uploads. Maybe its in my firefox. I'm going to tweak my microsoft internet explorer next.

Navigate to your other thread. Type "bump" in a reply to it. That will take it to the top of the list again.
You can do that daily, but not hourly.

They are very busy, please be patient.

confused
I sent the report, this is what I got back. What do I do?



Welcome to Tech Support Guy.

The Report feature is not for asking questions;

Please use this form ONLY to request a Moderator in case of a problem. Reasons can include: requesting a thread be moved or closed, report advertising messages, and problematic (harassment, fighting, or rude) posts. This is not a method of requesting technical assistance!

This is stated in RED LETTERS both above and below the form you used when you clicked on the report button.

If you do have a question or problem you would like assistance with you need to post a new thread in the appropriate section of the forums.


Thanks, and have a great day,

A lack of response for 48 hours or more in the HJT forum is an exception. Some of the canned info on the site hasn't been modified to reflect the new protocol.

The report was a bit confusing as the poster made it look like she was using the report option to ask a question, instead of reporting her own thread in malware. She reported this thread.
