I was just wondering if his connection is 100baseT or 10baseT or what kind. You know, is it fast enough to matter and does he care? Besides our internet bandwidth is 24kb/sec(192) and 7kb/sec (56k). >>> Cory Petkovsek <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 11/29/2000 4:44:58 PM >>> How much internet bandwidth do YOU have? 32kb/sec (256k) and 7kb/sec (56k)? And you're concerned that dragonsinger's upperlimit of 1.25mb/sec isn't fast enough? He'll be limited by the servers he's connecting to. I've only found a few servers that could put out more than my cable line could handle. One in particular was sun, another was from places like tuscows.com.
