<font face="Comic Sans MS">I'm using firefox on both computers. On
both I look at the downloads window where it shows how much of the
file has been downloaded. On the dinosaur that number is always
changing. On the linux box it stops for 10 to 15 seconds. Also
there's a lit indicator for each machine connected to the router.
It blinks rapidly when that machine is sending or receiving data.
There's also an indicator on the dsl modem that blinks when data
is coming in or going out. Also iptraf shows nothing's happening.<br>

What are you using to download on the Dinosaur that proves there is
actual constant data activity?
Here is my point: I can download a file with wget in Linux and watch
the progress in various ways so I know when it is working and when it
has stalled. I can copy a file from my USB drive to my hard drive and
disconnect the drive in the middle of the transfer and windows will
still show activity for a few seconds as if nothing happened before
crashing and BSOD'ing... lol
How do you know for sure the Windows box has contant connectivity and
the Linux box does not? Sounds to me like you are having consistent
problems with the DSL and Windows is remaining hopeful that your
download is coming.

<pre wrap="">Here's something else I've discovered. With the dinosaur
downloading a file, I would start another file downloading on the
linux box. When that file stopped, everything stopped including
the download on the dinosaur. When the download on the linux box
resumed, so did the one on the dinosaur. Later I shut down the
dinosaur, started ktorrent and had it downloading a couple of
files. I tried another download from one of the sites I've been
having trouble with. When the download with firefox stopped, the
transfers ktorrent was handling stopped also.
Thanks
