I cannot get high speed internet access at home.  In fact, I can't get 
more than about 26400 on my dialup.

My dialup is my FreeBSD machine (5.3).

I am wondering if I setup a proxy on the FreeBSD machine, if it would 
speed downloads up any.  If so, what would be a good proxy to use?

Anything else I could do to speed things up?
