g m10 .. Sounds like you're having the same problem I had when I first got my cable modem. It drove me nuts for 2 months before I finally spoke to an @Home technician who suggested that I disable my proxy server. I did that and went from 30 second to 2 minute page downloads to 1 to 2 seconds.

In case you don't know, here's how to disable your proxy server.

Press the MS "Start" icon, then Settings, Control Panel, Internet, Connection and then in the Proxy Server section, make sure the box is unchecked and then click OK.

Hope it works for you as it did for me.
