I gave my cat a bath the other day ... they love it. He sat there, he enjoyed it, it was fun for me. The fur would stick to my tongue, but other than that . . .- - - Steve Martin |

| Looks like you're getting the right speed from downloading however your speed tests which are java based are off or even much slower. What version of Java you're using? Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling?

Bay Area | What happens if you disconnect your router does it work fine then, have you tried removing your router?

Unfortunately, I have a Netopia 3341 with usb that acts as the router. The only thing I haven't tried is putting it into bridge mode and then using RASPPPoE or similar program for the PPPoE. Need to read up on it and try it out.
