Very Slow Broadband Connection Monday, July 11, 2005 at 11:06 am Windows 98 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Jim Helwig (43 messages posted) I am currently running Win 98 SE. My isp is Comcast High-Speed (?) cable. Honestly, as slow as the d/l speed is, I may as well have dial-up and pay MUCH less than I'm currently paying. I have a two-fold question: 1. Is there a program (preferably free, lol) that can identify if my system is the problem and where the bottleneck(s) are? I currently have TCPO Optimizer, and have configured for optimal performance. 2. When I contact Comcast regarding the very slow speed, all I get are excuses. Are there specific things I should be requesting from them to improve the performance? Obviously, this assumes that the problem is their's and that my system is OK. I should also mention that I'm using a wireless router (Linksys) WMP11v4. the signal indicates "excellent" and "Quality" is always "Very Good" or "Excellent" Thanks for any help anyone can provide.
