is this some kind of toll fraud scheme I'm unaware of
my phone rings, so I answer it. immediately I hear ringback which is strange. eventually someone answers. we both maintain the other party placed the call
so obviously someone called both of us and then cross the lines
weird
my first guess is it's like a prank
but i dunno if kids these days would be into phone pranks
much less know wtf "toll fraud" is. Or dialtone. *sigh*
I don't see how it could be tollfraud, your end didn't place the second call.
At least, not in conventional telephony. Now if it were a cellphone with a fake "your phone is ringing" app that you "answered" and it then placed a toll call, that could work. But you'd have bigger problems then.
mercutio: anything I can do to increase my upload bandwidth to ARP?
did you like bbr congestion?
s/like/try/
<mercutio> did you try bbr congestion?

sending from a windows ftp client
server is linux I guess
but I would have to compile kernel etc
oh
it's from windows
what amount of throughput are you expecting?
umm there is a tweak thingy for windows
i'll try and find it
I have 100 mbit upload, so even 40 - 50 would be nice
I was maxing out at about 2.5 mbits /sec
Set-NetTCPSetting -SettingName InternetCustom -CongestionProvider CTCP
try that from powershell
prob as administrator
that's strange that it is so low
holy cow
mercutio is the man
8.25 MB/sec
nice
bloody windows
have a link where that came from?

thanks
you're welcome
I was at the auto show the other day: https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipNyndUjUMBxrNOZ7XDiK9OxhaCKv_AossenMlLXXnyTR62I5ykRO2H5Q3xprPoo5Q?key=U0prWkpJbjZ0N2dpLXpQUHVIejI5dVgtOE9JQUFB
holy crap, so you squeezed a whole 6 Mbps more by just changing congestion control?
60 megabit
i suspect he means MB not Mb
omg
That's what she said!!
hahaha
I should have tested it right before
you can set it back
to ensure it was 2.5 mbit to 80 mbit or so

"yet there is always some room for improvement" LOL
When I asked "20:06:55        nathani | mercutio: anything I can do to increase my upload bandwidth to ARP?"   << I thought I would get a response like: Call your ISP and complain to them :-)
Why didn't I get the full 100 mbit though :)
install linux?
Arch or Ubuntu?
same diff for tcp speed
well actually
arch has bbr
cos they have recent kernels :)
new ubuntu is coming out in a couple of months
mercutio, yeah a prank is possible but I wonder if kids these days even know how to do three-way calling
... except it's easy on a cell phone now that I think about it
i think most peopel struggle to do 3 way calling
people don't want to do it frequently enough to know how to do it
but yeah it's kin dof easy on cellphone
with a landline you've got to flash the hook....
i've seen a few people doing dial in conferences now
and god forbid you have call waiting and three way calling
i think people find that easier to understand
That's what she said!!
