Software Upgrade? How do I get one?

Anyways here is my 2MB internet speed test:

Wed, 28 Dec 2005 18:04:40 GMT

1st 512K took 2188 ms = 234 KB/sec, approx 1928 Kbps, 1.88 Mbps
2nd 512K took 2171 ms = 235.8 KB/sec, approx 1943 Kbps, 1.9 Mbps
3rd 512K took 2157 ms = 237.4 KB/sec, approx 1956 Kbps, 1.91 Mbps
4th 512K took 2172 ms = 235.7 KB/sec, approx 1942 Kbps, 1.9 Mbps

Is this ok for like 2mb internet connection? or is it bad? I'm using USB and I think I should maybe upgrade to ethernet. Wat u fink?

Sorry for all the questions!

Overall Average Speed = approx 1942 Kbps, 1.9 Mbps

That speed is fine for 2MBit.

Ethernet would certainly be better overall as it places less demand upon the CPU, however as Zeph said, the speeds look fine.

Is there like a software upgrade that I can download?

Your modem will automatcally pick up and install any software updates available for it. You cannot install new firmware on it yourself.

Yep! But, I was looking at some threads and one System Upgrade thingy was ntlhm100_ntl0002.cpr or something like that?

Your speed is fine and there are no upgrades you need.

ntlhm100_ntl0002.cpr is only required for the 10 meg service, which you don't have.

BorderLine · 28-12-2005, 21:35

Oooh, Kk! Thats fine. Thanks for your help guys!
