   The Surfboard is an excellent quality modem. If you have upwards of
15 Gnutella connections open at one time, you will have problems with
any connection. That is a very large amount of bandwidth you are talking
about using at one time, so of course your pings will be poor. With that
any open connections, you are probably overtaxing your PC as much as
your connection. I have used Napster and Bearshare in the past and had 2
or 3 downloads going simultaneously, but at that I saw a slight
difference in speed as I started each download. I imagine at 15 it would
have been crawling and I know I have a good connection, as well as a
1.4Ghz system.
