Hi RobD & Ronni Rob's final suggestion to power off modem and wait 15 seconds produced these figures:-
Before modem off 163KBs After modem back on 290KBs 15 minutes later 282KBs Can anyone explain this? It would be an enormous coincidence if congestion ceased just then. with only about a minute between tests.
