Ultima Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 It depends on your internet connection. If you follow the directions, you can find out your connection speed if you don't already know it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 Yes, it's rather slow then. Did you follow all the directions on that page I linked to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 The Speed Guide doesn't say to select xx/1mbit, does it? Read it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 Is it your upload speed that's 1mbit, or your download speed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LadyThriller Posted August 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 It's the upload speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 Hm. Do you have a green light? Did you run the Slackware torrent like in the link I posted earlier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultima Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 ... why'd you say your download speed was 1.2mbit then? -.-Okay, simple solution... just follow everything on that page I linked to. It says, and so does the Speed Guide, to select your upload speed. Now, your upload speed is 467kbps, so why would you select xx/1mbit? Once again, just follow all the directions on that page.

LadyThriller Posted August 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 Could u please just copy a picture of ur settings and paste them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted August 5, 2006 Report Share Posted August 5, 2006 No, because each person's settings are different -- I don't have the same connection type as you. Is the setup guide difficult to read or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyThriller Posted August 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 WTF?I'm port forwarding and I entered my Static Ip (which is my ip address right?) and then i put it in the browser but it doesn't work.help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 You're not supposed to put the static IP in the browser. The portforward.com guides clearly say the default gateway IP address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
