Subject: Download speeds
I am on dialup and am upgrading my system. Synaptic (the GUI updater) tells me
that I am downloading this at around 5,000 bytes per second and that at this
speed it will take about 4 1/2 hours to complete. Now sometimes the download
speed will increase to 10,000 bytes per second (which decreases the
completion time considerably) but that only lasts for a couple of seconds. I
was wonderring if there was anything I could do to keep the download speed at
10K or if my provider could do something to keep it at that speed?
