mudmanc4 Posted October 4, 2010 CID Share Posted October 4, 2010 Hey Dan , try testing several times in a row , then later in the day as well. Many times network traffic is heavy , so it appears as if your connection has issues. Not saying either way at this point, but it's a start.

coknuck Posted October 5, 2010 CID Share Posted October 5, 2010 fastdan, you might want to give this program a try. Its about the same and has been around for a long time and many here swear by it.
