[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 380683, member: 24160"] With a highspeed connection, download speeds typically have more to do with the server you're downloading from than anything on your end. Try a [URL="http://www.speedtest.net/"]speed test.[/URL] My MBP via wireless connection sittin' 75' from the router is:6586kb/s down and 481 up. Meanwhile my desktop XP machine with a gigabit connection on current test is only:4921 and 464 :( Now I may have to go see what's wrong with my windows machine - naw - ain't used it in awhile anyway.
