I was having problems too. I upgraded to 10mb on the 25th and wasnt getting even half that speed. I changed to an ethernet cable and it went up to around 7-8mb max. I have now uninstalled my Zonealarm firewall (out of mere curiosity) and I am now hitting nearly full speed... this cant be coincidental.

1st 512K took 438 ms = 1169 KB/sec, approx 9633 Kbps, 9.41 Mbps
2nd 512K took 422 ms = 1213.3 KB/sec, approx 9998 Kbps, 9.76 Mbps
3rd 512K took 437 ms = 1171.6 KB/sec, approx 9654 Kbps, 9.43 Mbps
4th 512K took 438 ms = 1169 KB/sec, approx 9633 Kbps, 9.41 Mbps

Overall Average Speed = approx 9730 Kbps, 9.5 Mbps

Does anyone know of a less restricting firewall that is as good as ZA?
