Hi I run the system as set out below. I have just installed a silver
surfer. And yes the speed has increased a lot. I used to get a max of
3500 when downloading files from Aminet via Voyager now I get up
to 5000. However since the install I get frequent lockups that need a
reeboot that apear not to follow any patten. Whether this is the
Silver Surfer or something else I have done I have not yet fathomed.(
any ideas greatfully received). Hope this is of some use. All the best
