My broadband test results under 10.2.3 (and back to 10.1) are always at the ATTBI cap of 1.5 Mbps. Results are consistent across test sites. I have had broadband optimizer in my startup items for over a year -- perhaps it really makes a difference.
As for Jim's problems with ethernet to router to dialup, I have no solutions to offer. I don't recall reading of a similar setup and what might be needed to make it work. But, I would assume the answer is tweaking the network settings like broadband optimizer does for you, behind the scenes.
