anyone help? i only seem to get a good connection from modem users, why?

i do get connection from adsl and t1 but not very often!!

i use adsl by the way

It's a user customizable setting. There are various reasons why modems seem to have good speeds and DSL don't

2) ppl. tend to ignore setup wizards (modem gets selected automatically)

3) ADSL isn't per se fast . The A in ADSL stands for Asynchronous and means different speeds for up- and downstream. Usually fast downloads but slow uploads. For example 1MBit/256kbit, 4Mbit/2Mbit. ADSL has also the drawback that download speeds drop to about the same speed as the upstream if the upstream is maxed out (a fix is to adjust the upload bandwidth slider and/or to select a lower speed, see 1).

4) Real modem users tend to select a higher speed in the hope to get better download speeds!?
