should it be half..or..Full duplex?

Nope this is the only one..a desktop computer

But I've gotta Westell WireSpeed Dsl Modem...Can that act as a router?

uh-uh...

I think tha central office might be in Atlanta...and i'm in Albany...about 2 1/2 hours away... and ohh yesss!!!... My computer stays clean of spyware..adware...malware...anything that a ware the computer down!... I've got avg free and kerio firewall...wit all types of spyware...registry...and cleaning ish...so i don't think that will be a major problem involved..and i'm not behind a router...

I'm with Bellsouth... I can't really remeber what the price is... But i can tell u it's no more than $30..

Preciate my boi!!!... But how did u come up with the latency for these settings?

I can't seem 2 find the right settings for my connection...must be a rare connection or sumthin..

Since cablenut won't let me do it... How do i chang my MTU to 1500 and MSS to 1460... and I'm NOT using a router,my dsl is always on... so why do i get 1492?

How do i know if i have PPoE or not?

That is wat i'm using it's just me and cholla are pm each other trying to find the perfect RWIN for my connection...

I'm using XP
