I tried you guys' advice.  I was signing on at 49.2Kbps but whenever I did a speed test, it was always 38Kbps(4 kB/s) or so.  I had 4 other things things in my house plugged into a phone jack.  Two phones, and two DirecTV boxes.  I unplugged all of them, signed off and signed back on, and the speed test was giving me 45Kbps(6 kB/s)  Very Happy.  Now all I wish for is for Verizon to get off their lazy bums and wire us up for DSL (if ever).  Thanks. cool

It says I need help because Level3 is also a broadband provider, so the scores get mixed in with that.

Glad you were able to see some nice results.The two DirecTV boxes were prob. a big culprit that was hindering your speed.
