Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Internet Slowbies - Queries for Gurus

[ken rentiers (rentiers]

Well right now I'm golden...back home and plugged in using simply the  
CrappyCable modem and an ethernet cable. Interesting: I'm getting 5.3  
mbps on the wire, when I hijack another (weak) wireless signal, the  
only reliable one,  I go to 0.2 mbps. So the IPS feed is getting  
through to the modem, if I experience fits and starts I will think  
the modem is the culprit. If I don't I'll eventually go wireless  
again. But for now I will stop wasting Ferrari bandwidth.

Thanks everyone for the insights.
