    Okay a friend talked me through it over our yahoo connection. I set up mine's and my wife's email accounts. So as the Taco Bell commercial says "We're good to go."
    Surely your wife's name isn't Wilma.

      Re: Hawaiian Telcom DSL

      How's everybody's HT Dsl connection lately? I live in Waikiki and after the transition, my download speed has gone down

      When I was on Verizon, I used to avg about 60-70 Kbps downloading a file....now, I'm going below 20 Kbps.

      Does anyone know if HT DSL is PPPoE?
      What's HT's DSL connection speed for Residential customers?

        My HawTel DSL connection has been just fine
        What is your connection speed rate at 1.5Mbps/3Mbps ?
        HT DSL does not use PPPoE
        3Mbps/1.5Mbps are current flavors.

          I really don't know. Does Residential accounts have a different speed?

          I've been trying to optimize my dsl connection with TCPOptimizer and when I set the speed to higher than 768 Kbps, my download starts slowing down.

            Aaron, what's a good speed test site? I remember you recommended one, but I've been all through this thread and don't find it.

                Thanks. I just tried it. 1238/364 from the LA server. 1264/366 from the SF server. That's a residential phone line.

                You've obviously got a problem somewhere; whether it's distance from the switch or a tiring piece of equipment I don't know enough to say.

                  Re: Hawaiian Telcom DSL

                  Here's my result (LA server)

                  Download Speed: 142 kbps (17.8 KB/sec transfer rate)
                  Upload Speed: 100 kbps (12.5 KB/sec transfer rate)

                  BTW, what dsl modem are you using? I have the one provided by Verizon (Fujitsu Speedport). Could that be the problem?

                    Re: Hawaiian Telcom DSL

                    Westell (also provided by Verizon). I went DSL about 22 months ago, and that's what Verizon was giving out then. Also using a D-Link DL-604 router.

                      I had my Fujitsu modem for about 4 years. And I'm also using a Linksys DSL Router.

                        I haven't a clue about how to test either piece of gear. Other folks here may, though.

                          Fujitsu modem...that means you can't get anything higher that 1.5Mbps
                          as your circuit goes through frame relay. The new Westell modems support
                          the higher speeds (e.g 3Mbps). With a 1.5Mbps connection you should be
                          seeing atleast 120KB/sec or higher. I would inquire with Hawaiian Tel to
                          reprovision your circuit.

                            No
                            Right now I'm downloading a file and it's downloading under 5 KB/s
                            Before HT, I was able to download files around 60-70 KB/s

                              I think it is just coincidence that your drop in speed happened during the transition. Based upon the age of your modem, I think your modem is dying.
                              That being said, re-provision your connection may take a week or more
                              from frame relay (Fujitsu) to ATM (Westell).

                                I guess I'll have to give HT a call next week.
