Please explain to me why I can be downloading, then suddenly I'm "waiting in line, position x". I seem to be downloading from the same sites, so why am I getting bumped?

Also, I just upgraded to a cable connection, and I'm finding it not much faster than modem. I changed the setting for speed in the options menu, running no other programs, choosing files with multiple sources, yet I often can't seem to get more than 4 or 5 KB with any regularity. What gives? Is there some settings I'm forgetting?

I'm running a 466 Mac G4 with 800+MB ram, from home with a cable connection tested prior to this post.

Thanks,

Joseph Byrnes
