Side note: As for my (& Khalid's) Roger's Express, up to 10 Mbps (and above?), that's just a fantasy anyways. The net won't feed you that fast, heck, the net isn't feeding Rogers that fast for them to send it on to you. YMMV, average browsing, etc., etc., yada, yada, yada. I never have, and never expect, to see speeds that fast.<br>

And hijacking the thread again ... apparently Rogers business service has no cap. I expect you must have a business address. Don't know if traffic filtering is an issue on the business service - Paul? Charles?<br></blockquote>
