How can I tweak cable modem upload speed?

[RTWMooseMan]

Hello all, 1st post here, and I wasn't sure exactly which forum to ask this in, so I'm starting here. Just got cable broadband available in my area. For the past 2 years I have been using Wireless DSL, and was used to upload speeds of around 500 kbs. With the new cable bb I am seeing at best around 80kbs upload. The TCP setting is not affecting the UL speed, but my DL speed is 5 times what it was on WDSL. SO my question is ..... can anyone here provide me with either info on how to raise my UL speed, or provide links to sites with instructions. I appear to be unable to find anything that is providing me with info on how to raise UL speed.

TIA!

i've played with the registry settings and have found that none of them work. Good luck to you, though

Get a different power block for your modem. More power = faster service.

becareful as if you get caught they can shut you down

Many cable systems are hard capped at 128k, so you could hopefully get up to that level with tweaks, but not beyond it unless they support a higher speed.

Oh, and you don't get caught and shut down for trying to get advertised speed, hacking a cable modem is what gets you shut down.

Maybe you could add some wings to reduce wind resistance. Some racing stripes would be pretty sharp

Don't forget to some VTEC decals on the side too, that'll add some mad speed to your speeds.
