However last night I was able to find that my online backup program was eating up most of the upload bandwidth. With the up saturated, the down was not able to work. I paused the backup and traffic stabilized. The other day it was the Voip phone that I unplugged to achieve that. I am going to upgrade my modem and see how how that affects things. And I will probably end up upgrading my connection as well. /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
