so i just bought this dlink dcm-202 cable modem to use with my starpower internet service to avoid paying cable modem rental fees. i called the guy and set it up. usually i get about 7 megabits (consistently) download and 800 Kbps upload. after getting this thing to work i only get about 5 megabits download and 600 kilobits per second upload. i talked to the guy at starpower and he said everything was fine on their side and that i should be getting the proper speed. we were on the phone for almost an hour and finally said that i should call dlink and ask them what's wrong because if it was working ok with the previous modem it should be working ok with this one. any ideas or suggestions before i call?

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
