You may also wish to test to an ftp/http server that is located at your ISP's POP, just to see if the bottleneck is your connection or their connection out to the 'net. In all fairness, there are a number of locations that I cannot get more than 90KB/s out of no matter whose backbone I'm sitting on. Oddly enough, I remember in the 'early days' of the internet it was much faster... :) Charles --- Charles Sprickman spork@super-g.com --- On Mon, 24 Apr 2000, Ryan Thompson wrote: > > Posted to -chat as this really isn't FreeBSD related...
