have told you as much.
The cable modems need more specific firmware then dsl.
There use to be a time when you could hack the firmware and increase your speeds dramatically. Unlike the dsl modems where the through put is at a centeral office hub.
PS
web3 sucks. Too bad you cant switch to dsl.

What have you heard about them?
So far, I like their tech support--generally smart, young, and knowledgeable; and we all share a deep loathing for Rogers. Roger's tech support follows The Official Rulebook For Large Corporations, and thus is absolutely utterly a waste of time and life. Filtering seems to be the same, unfortunately; but at least I'm saving ~20$ a month from an "Extreme" service that is extremely hostile to p2p. On a side note, I have gained an extreme loathing for email blacklists (spamhaus, etc) and mal-configured email servers. There are lots of good servers out there (utoronto.ca, gmail.com) that don't block me sending email directly to them, but many others (yahoo.com) block me (or more precisely dyndns). Fucking retards.
