I FINALLY got my Comcast installed this past Saturday. Sorry for the caps but the order went in Feb 14, 2007! I hope I hold the record for longest Comcast install time, I’d hate to think anyone has had to wait longer than I have.

On the upside I’ve gotten in at DOCSIS 3.0 and my untuned network speedtest.net results through an Apple Airport Extreme router via 100mbit ethernet were 26Mbps!!!

With that level of performance I’m not sweating TCP tuning yet. :-)

This is mostly effective on direct connections to the Internet I would wager, like 3G connections directly on a Windows machine, or ADSL or cable connections also directly to one Windows machine – stuff that isn’t dialup but also isn’t low-latency ethernet.

A household with a router will probably either have decent performance or not, since the router does the talking over the broadband link. Still, interesting tip, thanks!
