    try opening a command box and do tracert to several sites and see what your delay times are saying. If you see anything over about 70ms then there are probably routing problems through the company's redback routers, fiber, etc.

    Go to Start-Run, and type cmd

    Then in the Dos box try several times like this:

    tracert www.dodge.com

    tracert www.zerotoninety.com

    Some sites will have it turned off so you don't get a reply, so keep trying sites till you get some that work.

    Your ISPs have probably oversold their Internet service and are too cheap to upgrade to give you the speed you want. I live in a small city in northeastern Iowa and my Qwest dsl speed is pretty fast. I'm paying for 5mb down and my downloads (through my wireless network) go up to like 429KB/sec. (This is from a free mediafire download.)
