This is a single 3MB/s system.  And I think it is slowing me down.  I haven't 
noted a download getting to 360kb/s yet, most wander around at about 150-200.

Which is nowhere near the spec for the box I'm running dd-wrt on, its a 
450Mhz K6-III, half a gig of ram.  That spec above ought to blow smoke 
against any system.

Is that going to be able to keep up?  If not, my test machine, "goat" (cuz 
its sacrificial), can be pressed into service I suppose, its a 1Ghz athlon, 
but only 384 megs of non-banked memory so its no speed demon either.  Some 
sort of a bastard HP Mobo that I can't find memory for or I'd fix that.  
Maybe I should just go get one of the newer mini boxes when they go on sale?

Shentel.  Only other choice in these here parts.

That should be all they need.  What I do on my side of the cat5 jack 
shouldn't mean squat.  This thing is an ARRIS modem.

And this modem locks to me, so it seems to be stuck to my lappy's MAC, which 
I had to clone into the linksys.  And when I called, they didn't seem to be 
able to cancel the lease.  I'd have to wait for it to time out, which may be 
a friggin week.

Thanks Gene.
