FAO BT Moderator - Broadband speed checker concern...

Hi,
I understand that broadband speed checkers can give very inaccurate readings of what broadband speeds you can expect to recieve. My actual download speed (after running say BT Speedtester or speedtest.net) is approx 4mb and has barely fluctuated in the 3 years that I have been on BT Total Broadband. Whenever I run a BT or Sky broadband speed checker (therefore not an actual test, just a line check), my estimated connection speed is usually around the same mark, 4-4.5mb.
HOWEVER! Maybe once or twice a month when I run both the BT and Sky speed checkers, it will suddenly say that my estimated connection speed is only 0.5mb, even though when I run an actual test, I am still getting the 4mb approx that I have always got. Then maybe a week will pass and it will be back up to the 4-4.5mb again!?!?! I've ran the same speed checks using a friend's phone number (who is on the same ISP and Exchange) and his never changes?????
I appreciate that these speed checks are unreliable and it's the actual test that is the most important thing however it concerns me when one minute these line checks state I can get estimated speeds of between 4-4.5mb then the next minute it's saying 0.5mb.
I really would be grateful if a Mod would look into this issue for me. In the meantime, does anybody else experience this problem or not why this may be?
Any advice would be gratefully received!!

It most certainly does and thank you for the speedy response as ever Roger.
My current IP is 4000 however my exchange did have a network upgrade 8 days ago (hence the 8 day connection time). I've ran a few BTSpeedtesters since then and the download achieved has been coming out at approx 4.2-4.3mb so I'm assuming or more hoping that the IP should be raised to 4500 the next time the HH re-syncs.
Thanks again.

Broadband Speed Check

I have been trying to check my broadband speed for the last two weeks but every time I tried I get the same answer, "We are unable to carry out the speed check at this time-please use an alternative speed check". This has been going on for at least the last two weeks. In the mean time I have replaced my computer with a brand new machine, and still have the same problem!
I have been able to confirm my speed by using the alternative. Any help will be appreciated.

K8N Neo2 Platinum - Four Kingston DDR400X64C3A/512 can't run at 400mhz speed

Hi every one !
Why 4 sticks memory only run dual channel at 333MHz . How can I speed up them to run at 400MHz ? Thanks for any help and best regards

Hello, its the limits of the AMD cpu's memory control not a mobo, only am2 cpu's can handle four sticks at rated DDR speeds..
you can try to up your buss speeds and get four sticks to run faster than 333 but hitting DDR400 will be hard to do..
I have my four sticks running someware around DDR370..
There is little proformance difference between 333 and 400 so if you need two gigs of memory thats your choice with four sticks
Two 1gig sticks is allways better to use than four 512's
hope this helps

Can't run Adobe accessibility checker on new PC

Hi Jasmin / Jayan / and anyone else,
We have new workstations with newer versions of JAWS installed and can't run the Adobe accessibility checker. The option is disabled. When JAWS is open, can't run Adobe's read out loud feature. Using Win XP Pro, JAWS 11, Designer ES (8.2) and have Acrobat 9 Pro and Reader 9 on workstations. Any ideas?
Thanks

OK, I'm not sure exactly how, but I've managed to fix it.
Shortly after writing that post, I renamed the libraries on each PC, and was then able to see both on my iPhone, but still couldn't see the XP library on my Windows 7 PC.
I had done a soft reset on the wireless router earlier, but I decided to try a complete cold restart - turned off both PCs, and unplugged the power cable to my router, left all off for a few minutes, plugged the router back in, turned my old PC back on, loaded iTunes on that, then turned my new PC back on, at which point some message came on about the firewall, and then loaded iTunes. So I'm syncing now - it's worked!
I guess that's another problem solved by turning it off and back on again!

Difference between BT Broadband Speed Test and all...

I have recently moved to BT Broadband from TalkTalk as I was dissatisfied with the speeds that I was getting with my TalkTalk line – they were OK outside of peak time but woeful in peak time. With TalkTalk, I was on their ‘up to’ 8Mbps which, in practice, translated to about 6Mbps for download outside peak times but dropped to below 1 Mbps in peak (around 500Kbps and sometimes even lower!) – these measurements were taken regularly with both the TalkTalk and Think Broadband speed tests which were usually roughly in agreement and I haven’t had to rely on memory as I downloaded the spreadsheet records available to Think Broadband registered users.
I am now posting this in the hope that somebody can explain the difference between the BT Broadband Speed Checker (Here) and all the others available on the web.
When you are first connected to BT Broadband they warn you that your speeds will vary over the first ten days while they test your line to ascertain optimum speeds for it. During that time, I checked it every day early, mid-day and evening (usually around 0630, 1230 & 2000 hrs) with Think Broadband and, yes, it did vary – the first day it started at around 1Mbps for download but rose to 10Mbps by the end of the day. On the second day, it rose to a peak of 17.8Mbps which was unbelievably fast to use (well, to me anyway) but never reached that speed again as over the rest of the ‘test period’, the download speed dropped and dropped to the point where I am now outside of the BT test period and consistently seeing only 2 to 2.5Mbps over a 24 hour period.
I emphasise that those speeds were all recorded using Think Broadband but I am now doing tests using the BT checker mentioned above and the speeds which BT indicate for downloads are consistently in the 14 to 18 Mbps range. If I do the BT and TB test in quick succession, they generally show the BT calculated speed to be better than that of TB by a factor of around 7 (ie. TB at 2 Mbps whilst BT show 14Mbps). Now either they are measuring different things (or the sams things differently) or one of them is lying – all I know is that my general browsing experience is slower outside of peak times and I can tell by the time it takes to load pages.
I might have misunderstood something in these tests but I am now beginning to regret that I fell I for the BT sales pitch which promised me ‘up to’ 20 Mbps but ‘more likely’ 17 Mbps. I have tried to discuss thisl with BT Broadband technical support but they were no use whatsoever – indeed, I got the impression that he was reading from a script and as it didn’t cover my issue, I was wasting my time – it would also have helped for English to be his first language!
According to the BT test, I am well within their ‘minimum guaranteed access speed’ (Here). for my area (about 4Mbps) and therefore cannot do anything about it. BUT that is only when measured using the BT speed tester – with any other, I am well below. I am beginning to feel very conned and might even start looking to withdraw from BT if I cannot get this settled.
Can anybody help. I will happily post detailed records of my various tests or router stats if they will help.
Thanks in advance.

For what it's worth, I followed the guidelines for the BT test and took all of the tests within a 10 minute period.
All I know is that my daytime BT connection is nowhere near as fast as I had from TalkTalk. Indeed, it was not even quick enough to watch non-HD YouTube videos earlier this morning without freezing to buffer.

Will a new router increase my broadband speed in this configuration

How much (if at all) can I increase my broadband speed by getting a faster router. Here's my config:
DSL line --> DSL modem --> Lynksys BEFSR41 Router --> Ethernet cat-5 wiring in house --> TimeCapsule WiFi
The computers using this network are an Intel iMac (10.6), a PowerPC iMac (10.4), and two Intel MacBooks (10.6).
The modem/router are located in an in-wall distribution box in a utility room. I want to keep the hardwired ethernet available in case the WiFi quits temporarily. The TimeCapsule is in a good location (top shelf bookcase on first floor) for coverage of my 2-story house. In principle could eliminate the Lynksys modem, and use the TC as the primary router, but it would be difficult to physical locate the TC where it could both distribute to the house ethernet and have good radio reception.
Testing via the hardwire ethernet (using Speakeasy and speedtest.net) shows download and upload speed 1.27Mbps and 0.32Mb/s. My ISP is pacbell.net. I get the same result via my W-Fi. Speedtest.net tells me my result is about 40% of the average for pacbell.net to my zip code 94301.
I've heard there are much faster routers than the BEFSR41, but I don't know if my internet speed is limited by my current router or by pacbell's DSL service.
Any insights would be appreciated.

Will a new router increase my broadband speed
No...your speed is only going to be as fast as your weekest link, which in your case is the DSL modem and the connection speed package you subsribe to.

HP Omen not running at highest speeds questions

I just bought a HP Omen, I bought it the best of the best with 16 gigs of ram, and maxxed out everything I could. I've found that games run, "smooth", but FPS is super low. I was reaserching the issue and found that low GHz could be the issue. So I looked at my GHz and found that it was only 2.60. Is their a way to increas that? Or a way to just increase my overall performance.?

Hi, Firstly, please edit your post and REMOVE the s/n of your machine. Your machine is one of the following bunch: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/products/laptops/product-detail.html?oid=7771339#!tab=models They use Intel® Core™ i7-4720HQ with Intel HD Graphics 4600 (2.6 GHz, up to 3.6 GHz, 6 MB cache, 4 cores). For CPU, its max speed is 3.6GHz but system can only run at that speed in a very short period when required (automatically). Because higher speed will generate heat and this will damage a machine in no time. Alter BIOS can increase clock speed manually (or overclock) a machine. Unfortunately this is not the case, because one understanding reason: vendors (all of them, may be Asus not on the list) don't want customers return their machines due to heat therefore they lock the BIOS down. If you wish to overclock your machine for games, build a desktop machine for yourself. Note: I know a company, it has to reduce clock speed of their CPU's on newer machines due to heat. Regards.

What Speed can I run on my PowerBook G4 1.25GHz Matshita DVD-R UJ-816 drive

What Speed can I run on my PowerBook G4 1.25GHz Matshita DVD-R UJ-816 drive?
Can I run above the 2x speed, say if I bought some TDK 16x DVD-R would they work. Please can anyone help me.

Be careful of the Verbatim 16 X DVD-R. I just made 14 Coasters before I got the correct answer from Pioneer who supplied the DVD 104 Super Drive on my Mac even though I installed an A227 firmware update.
They will not burn reliably on my g-4 mac when running Mac OS 10.4.5. I can not burn these DVDs using Toast 7.02.
I have no problem with HP 8X DVD-RW or DVD-R though.
I checked with Pioneer on this and they were helpful explaining the inability of that drive to handle that disk with the present firmware version.

Make a smart playlist of your whole library but only checked songs - #4 on http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1801
Highlight all files in that playlist, then drag to the other drive. This isn't preserving any playlists or whatever, just copying files from one drive to another.
You might want to delete the smart playlist this once you are done because it will probably gobble up resources with that many files.

My mac mini is running very slow all of a sudden, how can i restore it's speed?

my mac mini is running very slow all of a sudden, how can i restore it's speed?

This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve your problem.
If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to gather information about the state of your computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it on this page. However, you should be cautious about running a program at the instance of a stranger on a public message board. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them.
Here's a summary of what you need to do: Copy a line of text from this web page into the window of another application. Wait about a minute. Then paste some other text, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page. The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. Details follow.
You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in your browser, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign ($) or a percent sign (%). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for your password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator rights.
The test may take up to a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. There is no indication of progress until it's done. Wait for the line "[Process completed]" to appear in the Terminal window. If you don't see that line within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report your results. No harm will be done.
When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." That's because the forum software falsely identifies something in the post as a violation of the terms of use. If that happens, please post the results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.

I am using a timed while loop and am unable to get the loop to run at a speed of less than 1ms (I am currently using the Wait(ms) function). How can I get a faster response?

I am trying to create a virtual engine within a timed while loop and am unable to get the loop to run at a speed of less than 1ms (I am currently using the Wait(ms) function). This does not however allow realistic engine speeds. How can I overcome this? I have access to a PCI-MIO-16E-4 board.

Andy,
Unless you use a real time platform, getting extactly 1 ms loop rate
(or even less) is impossible. It starts getting troublesome at about
0.1 Hz for standard operating systems.
I'd tackle your problem with "if i mod 10 == 0 then sleep 1 ms".
Of
course this is jerky by design.
HTH,
