This phenomenon is repeated with different modems on different machines.
It's better to compare them against other ISP's using the same hardware
and ask for an explanation.
I once managed to get my ISP to admit they where blocking incoming

What was the reason you paid 49 when they've been selling for 35 for the

Does anybody know how to recover the data? Is there any Open Source tool for
