- I recently bought a USR Sportster Vi 28.8 with Plug and Play (model No. 282).
- And, as some of you can identify with, I've been having some problems. First, let me
- say that it performs excellently in Netscape when I have autoload images turned off. In
- other words, it "screams" when just plain text is involved. It's another story when I
- try to access a page with pictures/graphics on it. It doesn't even display anything.
- Also, when I try to transfer a compressed file (by FTP or through the WEB), it
- goes (at an alarmingly slow rate) for about five seconds and then it totally stops.
-
- If you can identify with this or have some technical insight, please E-mail to:
