Yes, I've already experienced this with my MT firewall. But, as you know, ISPs are always fighting the new bottleneck whether its at the core or the edge, we just move it around. The never ending battle.
Lol, I just had an email come in from a gamer on my network: "Rick, Just wanted to drop you a note saying the network performance is amazing. I'm loving this. My friends, on cable in Lexington, are envious of my net access while we play Warcraft. I'm smokin them on real-time game play......their latency is now an issue. LOL! Thank you for all your hard work and commitment to the network you've developed here. Thanks again, Cory This is what I live for - speed! Thats why file-sharing bothers me so. It goes against that goal. What is it that gets advertised on every ISP commercial and that everyone talks about? SPEED! Thats what they want. I've had people say they'll be glad to have a serious talk with their torrent running neighbors. The way I look at it is this - you cant let 18 wheelers on the Indy500 with the racecars and expect a good race, they just get in the way.
