Re: 1MB Cap download speed

Thanks for the reply. Can you tell me why is it that I can hook a laptop
directly to the DSL cable modem and get speeds around 4MB down? But when I
go through the firewall and Win2003 server it can't get above 1.5 MB? We
were able to get the posted speed with the T1/VOIP speed of around 1.5MB
before we switched to DSL. We just can't get much above that with our
current configuration.
