Interesting. I hadn't heard that. I have rebooted it on a number of occasions but I always thought it was for some "unknown" reason. This morning, from my desktop machine: Ping = 18 ms Download = 9.29 Mbps Upload = 3.64 Mbps More tests, then I go digging in the closet for the WRTs. Last night, without the router, I got a download speed of 19 something. The nice lady at Comcast was impressed and said I was paying for 12. How much loss should there be going through a router and a switch? -- Regards, Dick Steffens _______________________________________________ PLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pdxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
