DON
As I stated, the slow down is in the gateway processing NOT the modem. My
post was addressing accuracy, not necessarily functionality.

What I did not mention, is NOT having the slow down worth the extra cost of
extra equipment, telephone lines, etc. One reason I and others went to DSL,
which in our case, saved total out lay of money and slow down.

Life is what happens in between plans.
