I wish I could get this all the time. It is slow slow between 5pm to 10pm CST that I don't really get online during that time. Direcway customer support says it's "normal internet traffic" slowing it down. I really need to move out of the boonies. :::..

Thanks for the information. I am going to try this out for a couple of hours. The speed seems to fluctuate ALOT these days.

I am new to this. If someone can point me in the right direction to learn how to try and tweak this Direcway 4000 it would be greatly appreciated.
