As my Mum used to say, 'If the wind changes, you'll stay like that'... ;)
Bit late in the day to worry about the Winds of Change. Any rearrangement to my features due to my prevailing expression is now firmly etched upon my countenance. :D

What settings did you change? I've checked the logging on mine and it's already disabled yet still struggling to beat 4 meg.

You both have different routers and if your router isn't up for the job.. i'd buy another which can.

Running the DD-WRT on 54G wired connection - and just found how effective the QoS settings were even on the download...

Reset them for 10meg, reboot router and jobs a good 'un. :D
