Looking at my modem lights and such, it appears that it's running client/server, so much of the slowness is due to having everything go back to the server. I disagree that this is the way to go, but I suspect for monetary (how can you charge for a 'run' of it) and propriatary reasons (protecting their own code from hackers) they do it this way. Nate
