slow network and modem

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.broadbandnet.hardware (More info?)

This newsgroup is only for the Microsoft networking hardware & not
networking in general.

Please either post what Microsoft networking hardware you are using or
post in a different newsgroup that is more appropriate.

Newsgroups that would be appropriate is one for your specific version of
Windows or a general networking news group assuming you don't have any
of the Microsoft networking hardware involved.
