Well what do you know, d/l speed is superfast today (minimum 35k).

How quickly things change.

I really must learn to be more patient in future

*************************************************
I have had DSL for about 3.5 months and, as I said, the d/l speed is very poor. Seldom do I get above 5kb/s. I am not sure what you mean about the number of sources.

Most of the time I look for files with 4 stars ****. Sometimes I will d/l a file with just two and they seem to be as fast as 4 stars.
And it doesn't seem to matter if the computer that has the file is modem or dsl/cable. or T1 as to the speed.

Just to reiterate I have Bellsouth.net dsl. The computer is a Dell Pentium III with 640megs RAM and a 160Gig h/d that is the #2 drive I use for storing the files. It has about 150gigs free.


Number of sources? I don't know.

Thanks.
