Colin, specifically re: cable modem access

I have a Mediaone cable modem (only one way since they still don't have broadband where I live)

It loses packets every other minute. IMHO, this is a major cause of the problems you are having. I am fed up with it, but they also do not have DSL here either (NO, I DO NOT LIVE IN THE MOUNTAINS AND MAKE MOONSHINE FOR A LIVING <ggg>)

I use Cybertrader too, and that is really unstable too. I am pulling my hair out. I don't think it's my machine as I have a 300 mhz with 128 MB RAM etc etc.

I really think cable modem access sucks. The minute DSL comes out, I'm switching.

Unless of course someone tells me that DSL is worse (please don't).

Good luck.
