Bigfoot Killer NIC

That should be fine i think, my DS SNR drops to 7db (Tweaked with DMT) in the evening and i have no probs. You could give it a go and then if it dont work out get it turned back on. Up to you Ian if your happy then leave things as they are. :)
 
Here's what I got when I pinged BBC...

...Mmmm...something ain't right if i got an 8Mb connection and I'm less than half a mile from my exchange:mad:

Just realised i was downloading a torrent file! I've stopped that and pinged the same site....

...Mmmm...much better:D
I'd like to see what i get if I ask Pipex to turn interleaving off...anyone else with Pipex who has done this?

Lets (sorta?) hope that UT3 will change that

I suppose there's no harm in trying, so I might give it a go :)
