OT - I've never bothered using the proxy servers either. I've noticed speed to the net in general has seemed to improve lately. I pulled in the Rock Ridge CD image for Redhat 5.2 (~500MB) last week in a little over an hour. I can usually get sustained speeds in the 1-2 Mbit/s range during the peak evening hours. That's not bad when you factor in the overhead of IP and Ethernet. My only complaint at this time (other than the somewhat sporadic routing and DHCP services) is the news server speed. Downloading a days mail sometimes takes several attempts, and is pathetically slow. This may have more to do with warez and porn dudez sucking in all the alt.binaries feeds to their machines than the @Home configuration, but they're going to have to do something.
