Ron,  When you hear the buzz, buzz, buzz - that is a busy signal.  When you 
are connected and your normally speedy link is slow - its likely because the 
internet is overloaded.  I mostly nitice it from work where I use a direct 
T1 line (no busy signals ever!)

By the way - why is this stuff being posted to Sacramento - it really 
doesn't apply.  Why not keep whining local?
