the purpose of the post was NOT to gripe about p2p stuff. i was complaining because 1 machine will send ANY files when 2 weeks ago both would send. i was writing about the fact that one machine will allow me to modify/update the router setup and its not the one i set this up with. finally and most significant - and it has NOTHING to do with p2p! 2 weeks ago i was able to send from either machine at about 4.5mbps - then suddenly (when all this other stuff started) the d/l speed went down 90%+ to 400-600k. that is my gripe and where i need help. i need to evaluate each device till i get the bad one and replace it, but how to best evaluate, a.k.a. what programs must i run to do a performance analysis of both the router and cable modem. tks
