can you determine your current connection quality?
for example, i have a little icon with bars in the lower right corner of my task bar.
i have DSL from my phone company. i also have a wireless router connected, so all of my computers are using a wireless connection, through the DSL modem, to the internet.
the number of bars indicates signal quality to the specific computer i'm using.
if you are on a wired connection, you might not have bars, but you will still have an icon of some kind in the lower right of your task bar that shows you are connected. there should be a way, using that icon, to determine the quality/speed of your connection.
