Sounds like a plan - please do so and after a few days I will switch off
polling you.  That way you can send to me when your system has light traffic
processes running   -   may be.

My broadband seems to have increased over the last month or so from 8 Mb /
800Kb  to  18Mb down / 1.2Mb up.


The new house will have speeds from 40, 74, 100, 150  - its more a question of
wallet and as we are retired it will be the most cost effective one that gives
20Mb upload and 70 - 80 down.

At least that way, my downlinks can get their files and be gone quickly.
Not that my system is being stretched in any way with a 8 core AMD FX 8350.
Read that as a 4 core Intel type - AMD lie.
