OK, OK so it is only the 5 computers I have tried it with, not all are mine. Also, going through various ISPs doesn't seem to make a difference. However, it is better now than it was.
This forum is a business for someone. Its' goal is to make money off our desire to swap lies and stories. From what I understand such was not always the case.
I go to numerous forums and web sites in the course of any given day. If it were a problem with my setup(s) I would see similar performance from at least some of them. Such is not the case. I'm not about to change my setup for the one site that doesn't play nice. I'll just keep on using it when I've got time on my hands and not when I don't.
Oh, Weak One, I'm actually pretty pleased with my speeds. Did a 61 mile circuit of Metro Denver yesterday and was totally happy with the speed. Now the Butt; that is another matter.
