I'm having some minor troubles with my ppp connection.

I have managed to achieve a stable internet connection with ppp, but I'm
still not 100% happy with it. For instance, I'm downloading StarOffice for
Windows right now, and I have downloaded about 50% in 2 hours and 30
minutes. Since I've been browsing, I think it is a quite good time. When I
connect with Linux, however, something is not as fast as with Windows, and I
think it should be quite faster. I've never managed to get StarOffice to
download more than 7%, at some moment, the connection stalls. On the other
hand, Netscape hangs quite often. When I use it for a while, it stops
responding (all open windows). When I close it and open it again, it seems
to work properly. What can I do about it?

I'm using a IBM Thinkpad 380ED (Pentium MMX 166Mhz) with 80MB RAM and a
Xircom (CEM56) Network/Modem card. I reinstalled Linux because I didn't
quite like the previous installation, and now I'm using Redhat 6.0 with
Enlightenment.
