Old IP's usually have low internal pressure, which limits timing advance, causing poor performance. It's a simple external check/adjustment thats covered in several threads, Hagars epistle provides lots of info on the subject. Regards

I emailed to your address on web page, it's a little over 800kb so don't know if it will make the trip!. Just downloaded file from Rapidshare with no problem, what's happening when you try?
