3.5MB/s is damn good. Thats higher than advertised. They doubled download speeds from 1.5MB/s to 3MB/s, so your getting pretty good down speeds.

With my tweaked Registry, bandwithplace.com wont even allow the test for me anymore lol. It says the speed is too high.

I score about 4150KB/s (a little over 4MB/s) on PCPitstop.com.

Your 3029KB/s from PCpitstop.com means 3 Megabytes, or a tad more actually. So thats right on

They promised to double, so anything 3MB/s or over is great.

1000 KB's = 1Megabyte

If you really want to test, and "tweak", go here and read. It really isnt that hard if take your time to read up 'bout it.

You may have to join the site in order to use the East Coast test server, but this test server is located where it can reach major backbones via a DS3 connection (DS3 is 45MB/s). Make sure you have Java installed too if you wanna use this site. If you dont, they have a link to it.

Actually, just go here....

Download DRTCP, open it, and in the TCP Received Window box, put 36956. then go back to PCPitstop and retest. You should get 4000KB/s for download speeds, maybe a little more.
