Re: slow speed

Looks possible. Are you on the cable modem? If so, click here: http://192.168.100.1 (may need to reboot modem for that link to work).

Username is "root" and Password is "root". Once in, on the left goto Operater Configuration and look at the Maximum Downstream/Upstream field. What's it say?
