| 20836 | 2001-10-10 04:59:00 | My internet everything is slow I would like to know how to change the settings to get a bit more speed up. There is a way but I have forgotten how to do it. For instance it takes 25-30 minutes to download a 1.60mb file. I would appreciate some help on this Thanks |

| 20843 | 2001-10-12 09:11:00 | I have a 56k modem V.90 at the moment it is at 44,000bps but it does vary in speed. I am lost as the phone lines are fine I had them come out and check but even waiting for a web page to load I can be waiting for up to 5 minutes before it is done. It's got me beat???? |
