I thought it was the connection to the backbone that made my new ISP feel so much faster. Nope, just the convenient location of the webpages I visit most frequently. ;)

i thought it was because the hot deals forum &quot;is suck&quot; now, so there is much less traffic.

Yeah Russ, it really is nice. Of course it helps that the server is located in the next room...:p

I haven't done the traceroute for Orlando, but I'd be on social security before I got the results back. I'm on cable, and sometimes the Forum pages take 30 seconds to load. The main site is still pretty fast, but the Forums are much slower from here.

Alter.net (aka UUNET) always rocks. If I get the sprintlink.net crap, it sucks. Makes sense from my perspective though as we don't have a peering agreemnet with sprintlink.net.

Still laggy at times though. Strange because it finds the server like NOW and begins loading the page, but sometimes hangs loading a page.

BTW that's 768kbps SDSL from Voyager.net (Formerly ExecPC, soon to be CoreComm). :)
