here's the code:
»opensource.actiontec.com/index.html

I don't know if it's new or not but I stumbled across it moments ago on their site and knew I'd seen this article, etc.
looks like Actiontec is doing the same STUPID crap as JUNGO the people that made the firmware on the MI424-WR ,they want 15.00 in a certified check so they will send you cd. the files for download are coming down at 8kb restricted in speed and in content.

can't wait till someone re-write the code on that hardware and turns it loose.

here's jungo site

I think they Just hosted it on some shitty box with a 1.5 meg QoS limit or something because I just opened 150 connections to their stupid web-server and got 137 KB/sec (vs 8 KB/sec with one connection) and while downloading from a different connection while the 150 thread download was going I got a lovely 700 bytes/sec (much slower than the 8 before) so yeah.... It went much faster with 150 connections though:

Connection 148 finished

how do you open that many connections in a browser? I only use Seamonkey if that matters

axel, a command line downloader. For the 90 MB file I used 250 connections which totally killed their server =P Got almost exactly 150 kilobytes/sec on that. Just did axel -n 250 »url/

Most downloaders have a limit of only 10 or so connections which wouldn't help in this situation but axel doesn't really have a limit so it could be used for DDoS's on web-servers but that is really easy to do by launching a bunch of wget's limited to 200 bytes/sec as well.
