I'm at work, and I just tried downloading the same 45MB file I've been experimenting with for the last week.

It downloaded at 1.6MB, and took 6 seconds..... WTF??? I'm REALLY scratching my head, now...

I can DL from Rendo at work, and get 1.6MB/sec. But at home, I get 90 - 130 KB/sec. But only at Rendo... I can DL from anywhere else @ 1 - MB/sec.

Looks like there's a lot more at play here than I thought... Most baffling, but it does explain why some folks have no problems with slow DL, and others do.. And why the techs at BW are having difficulty tracking the issue down..
