Does not rebooting twice erase most of the time savings of downloading at 48Kbps vs 44Kbps?
Have you actually measured download time on a stopwatch, when getting the same size file, and verified that the reported greater speed is giving you a faster download? Never believe everything you read until verified...

There is a modem, a U.S. Robotics V92 Fax PCI model 5610, recognized in both systems. When Win98 is used the connect speed is 48 Kbps or higher. When Win2K is used, the connect speed is usually 44 Kbps or lower, seldom higher. The end result is that I usually boot into Win98 to download, a inconvenience and a security risk. I assume that the drivers are causing this difference. Is there any way to get the W2K speed up to the Win98 speed? -- ---------------------------------------- WIN-HOME Archives: http://PEACH.EASE.LSOFT.COM/archives/WIN-HOME.html Contact the List Owner about anything: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Official Win-Home List Members Profiles Page http://www.besteffort.com/winhome/Profiles.html -- ---------------------------------------- The WIN-HOME mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software.
