Not to be to much of a meany, but you won't even get 2x your connection speed without paying for a better connection. DSL still goes through phone lines and is limited to the quality of phone wiring, hops, etc. Usually DSL has more node hops than cable.Most cable is at 2-5mb/s depending on the speed cap on your modem/IP. For example I have a 5mb/s connection from Road Runner. I get almost exactly 5mb/s and 700kb/s upload. If I wanted to get it to be faster I'd have to do 1 of 2 things: 1: upgrade to a business class connection, which doesn't entail to any hardware or wiring changes, just raising the bandwidth restriction for my modem. 2: hack my modem to remove the cap, which I would rather not do.But, there are programs that can help you find the shortest and fastest path to the server your connecting too. In some cases where you usually take 10-20 hops to get to a server, they can nock it down to 5-10 and this would seem to be so much faster, but your connection is still the same speed.*edit*After looking into the program I noticed it's nothing to do with traffic directing but traffic "shaping". Apparently it organizes your connection traffic for better flow. It sounds logical, but not sure if it's practical. I'd have to test it out myself to see if there was any improvement. (and I will of course *smile*)*/edit*
