Just a shot but could it have something to with linespeed being 6Mb but xfer-rate still 3Mbps? KPN only has upgraded the linespeed but is still limiting the bandwidth at 3Mbps. I tried it myself and and I also got delays but not that extreem: 8ms regular and once in a while 50ms. fc1, 2.4.22, usb speedtch rev 0 kernel driver, pppd 2.4.4b1 Michiel Liste de diffusion modem ALCATEL SpeedTouch USB Pour se dйsinscrire : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
