256483 2004-07-29 12:17:00 I hooked up to Saturn cable a couple of days ago. Went to Speedguide and set MTU to 1500 and R Win to 256960. A 5 Meg file came in this morning (as reported by Opera) at 250 KBytes - lovely !

What settings have other Saturn people found useful ?
I think Susan the Wise is on cable. Comments ?
Cheers

256484 2004-07-29 13:38:00 Can't help you with thre speed settings Tony but, did they run the cable up your end of the street for just you or did you have to get some neighbours together to persuade them it was viable?

256488 2004-07-29 21:47:00 Hi Murray and Steve. http://www.speedguide.com. They will analyse your connection and you can DL a setup prog for your system.

Neighbours all have cable TV etc. When I first enquired, Saturn said sorry, could not hook me up. Problem with getting access they said. But I could see the poles and cables, and asked for a review. This time they said OK. But as access under the house was a problem, cable went neatly into the gutter and round to the back of the house ...

The RWin fig suggested by Speedguide seems higher than others suggest. Comments anyone ?
