Re: "In either case, my cable modem is simply unbelievable. It's the fastest thing I have ever seen!"

It's great as long as it works properly. Mine didn't work when I first got it, then they "fixed" it and it worked great for a while, then for no apparent reason it went haywire agin. They've been trying to figure it out for the last four weeks with no success. At least they had the decency to credit me three months for my aggravation.

<off topic>I had ISDN, but then Pac Bell up'ed the fee's and I found that cable modem was actually cheaper. I regularly get 50K/second downloads and I've never seen a slowdown due to anything but the speed of the server. If I have any complaint, its that the DNS isn't as lightning fast as the download speeds.

So now I have an ISDN modem mothballed. (A Boca Webglider)
