Using some actual sample download files hosted on known sites ... I'm pushing my connection up to 14.3KB a sec ... not too shabby. just wonder what's going to happen at 8am .... the story of my download hell ;-)

ugh. i wish! we're getting a crappy 5kb/s - if we're lucky. our speeds dropped from being "okay" to being "horrid"
