LoL, I kinda did.  Oops!

But seriously, what did you use to tweak your connection?  TechTV says that software programs that claim to optimize speed are pure crap.

Perhaps you got a firmware hack?

If your character is from after the 2004 clear but appears to have been deleted or reset, chances are it was caught in one of the inactive account purges over the years.  Backups were made before such events, so try the support form.

Yeah, well I also screwed around with registry settings in win2k.. I pulled a jumper off my modem that caps the speed.

So my connection speed is as fast as it can come to my house.

Pulling the jumper off, yeah.

You probably can't get the old cable modem that has that jumper there anymore.. My modem is the olderst part on my computer.

Yeah it is illegal.

However, they don't moniter bandwidth.

Is it that old purple (or black) Road Runner modem that they used to give out when the service was in premature stages (4-5 years ago?)?

I got a friend who has one of those.

That is impossible on residential RR.. Unless he is the only person on his sector.
