Yes another AOL problem

Deathrow · 10-31-2004, 01:11 AM

Hello.

I have been an AOL member fo quite sometime but have recently experienced problems. I downloaded some software that allows you to check pings and see where you computer is connecitng through. I found AOL was running all the way to New York and then back to may house causing huge pings and slow connecitons.

Is there anyway to stop this?

Also i have a BT voyager 100 broadband modem (free with AOL).

If i upgrade a modem say to the BT voyager 105 broadband modem or any other recommended modems will it change anything or affect my conneciton speeds etc?

Deathrow.
