Here's a little point regarding my download speed and the pro/against ipcop/efw thing... As i started to get bored by the old hardware, that caused me to loose way to much time, i decided to get a brand new computer... it's not a big one, it's "only" a dualcore E2180 with 1GB ram (instead of my 256 MB)... Now EFW runs quite the same (maybe a little better) as IPcop.... Sometime, it's better to cut the crap and do what you tell to your own customers : "Get a new computer, the price is so low, that you'll get your money back instantly !"... So i lost 15 minutes and a couple hundred euros, re-install EFW and now it runs fine, I'm Happy, and I'll go recycling my old computers/memory modules/noisy old hard drives...
