INCREASE FROM 100Mbps to 200Mbps?

[gunsite]

I have just had my ISP increase my speed frpm 100Mbps to 200Mbps. However, the status screen shows the speed to still be 100Mbps.
Does this mean that I am not receiving the faster internet supply?
Do I have to make any adjustments to change this?
I receive my supply via a cable modem and a Linsys LNE100TX Fast Ethernet card. Running XP Home. AMD Athlon. 1.5 Gig of ram.
Will I have to change the ISP supplied modem or the Ethernet card?

Are you sure about those numbers? I have a 5Mb connection with my ISP... that equates to Maximum download speeds of 640 kilobytes per second... for you to be 200Mb, your downloads would be in the area of 25 MEGABYTES per SECOND... not likely....

I would think your speed has been increased from 100 KILObit/s to 200kbps... this would equate to your download speeds increasing from about 12.5 kilobytes per second to about 25 kilobytes per second which is still way faster than your ethernet connection, no changes need to be made anywhere.

Are you SURE your speed was increased from 100 Mbps to 200 Mbps? That's amazingly fast. I've never seen broadband service that fast.

Anyway, even if it is accurate, the "100 Mbps" speed shown on your network connection icon in Windows is only the speed between your modem and your computer, which is 100 Mbps by default. It is not reflective of the speed between your modem and the internet; only bandwidth testers will show you that.
