LFS Status:  Rep Power: 27     |  Line Speed Problems ? Hey, Our broadband here doubled in speed today. It's gone from 1M to 2Megs. Browsing is hella faster but downloading wont go over 60kb/s. I've tried D/ling from FTP's and all's I can get is around 56kb/s where I used to be able to get around 100kb/s ? Any idea's or has my ISP set some kind of download cap ? |

Car: 2007 Durango Rep Power: 20 | It's possible it is shaped, so that traffic over port 21 is slower. Is downloading from webpages slower, or is it just FTPs?
