Well a friend told me about similar sounding problems he had when he went to DSL at home.

He found something that told him to make a change in the Registry. Something about message buffer limit for the NON-'host' machine(s) connected that way. He did as instructed and his problem went away.

My memory fails as to where he found this, but I think he said the site for the network card he was using. You can try google or you can wait for Monday, when I can ask him.


Cheers
