so, don't blame it on over subscription.. over subscription is a fast easy label to attach to all of the actual problems that can really cause your slow downs.


hehe

I've had my place rewired twice - my connections to the modem and through my netowork are all with the best quality coaxial I could find. All connectors are gold plated, and it made not one bit of difference.

It's the network, not the signal. At times I have 99% packet loss from the gateway on my ISPs network.
