cable modem ping

Is there any sites out there that have tweaks for cable modems to lower the ping? Thanks MILO

You can try http://www.speedguide.net/index.shtml They have lots of info, something there might help. Also try the comp.dcom.modems.cable newsgroup, they have some pretty knowledgeble people over there.

**** Post for FREE via your newsreader at post.usenet.com **** Also remember that the ping reports in N4 are for both directions, not one direction like N3. That's why everything looks twice as bad. Race hosts need to keep this in mind, and double the setting they used in N3. -Larry "Todd Walker" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Hi Milo, You should know how your service provider handles pings. For example Shaw@Home puts them as a low priority. I have to download a file and then use ping while the file is downloading to get the real ping counts. Jason.
