Sorry, I need to keep my abrevs straight. My skybeam nominal connect 
speed is 500 KB, 1/2 Meg a second. It normally runs on download at a 
little over
500 KB. I just checked a 132 MB download in about 5 minutes. The machine 
speed on the two ports are 1000 MB (which does not work well) and 100 MB 
on eth1, which runs well at 500 KB. This where I got confused.
