Tweak Test:

1) DGL-4100 (DLINK) but first through a BEFSR41 rev. 2 (Linksys)

dude how come you are pingable? Isn't that complete and utterly bad in terms of security?

I have no idea where I should record the speed at, Comcast uses a burst method so my speed goes down after a few seconds, but it kept going.. and going, at about the end of the 20MB, it was at 511KB/s from 858KB/s or something. Advertised is 6000mbps, 750KB/s

Being pingable allows hackers and hacking bots to find you when they scan through IP addresses, the way to avoid these guys is to not respond, to pretend you don't exist.

My router is set to know the differance between them so it allows Ping requests.

How well can a router tell whats good and bad? Theres always a way around something, the router would have to be kept up-to-date constantly for such a function to be useful.

The reason I am pingable is so that when I play Warcraft III on BattleNet, people will know that I do not lag.
who cares if people know if you lag or not

What router? Doesn't it suck that your first tweak tests aren't even saved anymore?
