Ouch!  Might as well be a dial-up connection!   B^)   Wasn't ISDN 64kb/s
with the option of ganging two channels together for 128 kb/s ?  That
makes your DSL not much faster than ISDN, or roughly the equivalent of 2
56 kb/s dial-up channels.  Not what I'd call broadband....then again,
you probably don't get random hang-ups!   (then, then again, I have a 10
mb/s cable modem connection, so I don't usually complain about how slow
it is.... B^)  If it is slow, its usually my ISP's fault!)  In any
event, good things come to those who wait!
