What is the maximum bandwidth of your connection? I know it's a silly question for a test site that I'd imagine is not using cached data but could it be that the 1 Mbps results are somehow related to the cache? What happens if you connect a station directly to the Internet on your ISP's link? Do you see the same poor throughput? - John -- John A.
