Dave, I guess I'm getting my "bits" mixed up. I just tried downloading Communicator 4 and was getting 42 KB/Sec, I got over 8 megs in three minutes. Not as fast as your connection but another guy I was chatting with took 10 minutes to get 20 megs so your doing great. At times I can get close to what your getting but it's not reliable, not complaining though cause this is much faster than my ISDN line! Derek: I generally get much faster file downloads than the 75-80kbps you have apparently experienced. For example, the Netscape 14.7 MB Communicator v4.51 file downloaded in under 3 minutes, and that translates into about 80KB/sec or 640 kbps.
