Update on this as I did some checks today.
This morning I gipped a few R3/4/4x programs. The fetch rate varied over
the range from about x5 to x10 'real time replay'. Since I have a
connection that always tells me it is in the range from 14 to over 70 mbps
this seems a tad slow. As on an occasion

Just did the BT speed test and my connection speed is *way* down low. About

question is to find out why it keeps happening... But looks
You may be too pessimistic. If I were in your situation I would be

Did anyone check if your mysterious line drops and restarts coincided with the
