Yeah, is the one greyed out in the box the default (74.213.207.1)? If it is, it gives me from 10-17ms (on the default 4 ping test). I don't know how to change the ping time limit. How does one change that?

I may try changing the target to another server although I can't imagine I'll find one with better pings than that. Right now I'm just monitoring the ACC and seeing what behavior I observe. Thanks for the suggestions!

The ping limit can be modified starting at v1.5.2 but I see little benefit in doing that. Your limit is currently 85ms which is a good limit for you.

I read your last post and you seem to have a good grasp of how the ACC works. The link limit means nothing unless your load is at the limit.

In next few weeks I will upgrade the ACC to version 2 which will include more goodies to make things work even better. Stay tuned.

OK, sounds good to me. I don't see any advantage, either.

Yep, now I understand that. The Speedtest (like you said) was not enough of a load to raise the limit. I got it!

It just keeps getting better...can't wait!
