A few people have commented that their initial reaction was one of disappointment with the speeds. I felt a bit the same. During general browsing it does seem to stutter. If you are downloading a list of groups from a newsserver it struggles to reach 200.

Download a tune from usenet using one connection to the newsserver or do a plain download with your browser and you get the same story. BUT try using a download accelerator or open multiple connections to the news server and the speeds go through the roof. Amazing difference! So the bandwith is there.

What I was wondering was is there anyway of using this multiple connection theory for general internet activity?
