Did you verify w/ SBC that your DNS settings for your physical location are up to date/correct ? Out of date DNS addresses can slow your surf speed to a crawl.
SBC is my vendor. However, I did NOT install the "AOL like" SBC-Yahoo wrap-a-round browser "upgrade" when if was offered.
I get pretty good throughput (for PPPoE) 875-1.5 with a PPPoE configured router. Running Me on an old Dell Dimension XPSR400.
Use patched IE 5.5
Good luck !
