I'd have to agree with iCab. There should be no problems with a PPC/117
processor and 40MB of RAM, especially if you're on cable. I've used a
PPC/100 (Road Apple Performa 5300) with 64MB of RAM and OS 8.6 on a DSL
line, thru ethernet, and it was very fast, using both iCab and even IE5.

Your hardware sounds fine, you might want to check your software.
