Where can I get the cable modem upload speed limit remover?

I'm on Rogers@Home and recently had my Lan City cable modem upgraded to a Terayon which supports faster upload speeds (Lan City = 50kps, Terayon = 150kps!). Unfortunately my provider caps my upload speed around 40kps. I know there's a program that can uncap it but I can't find it. Anyone know where I can download it from?

First of all, thats pretty screwy that they limit you, I have never heard of it. And second, if they have some sort of software on your computer, that is restricting your speed, re-do Windows. NEve heard of this before, and I think its highly likely, that the problem isnt in software, its in the cable modem itself.

The upload cap remover does exist and it does work because a friend of mine used it. Before he was stuck at 40kps uploads, now he gets over 100kps upload rates when he sends stuff to me! He's on the same service with the same modem and lives just a few miles away. Unfortunately he didn't keep the program handy.

Try this software: http://www.wisenetwork.net/skylam/ The Intelli-Dial-Up may work for what you want to do.

There is an upload cap and its very common. Modem caps are set up via the cable routers....not internal software or flakey modems....they are very real. My provider has gone through about 5 different kinds of modems. I have had cap removers for all but the newest modem (com21 modem). If you find a page with a veriety of cap removers I would appreciate an e-mail as well. Good luck!
