Default New Router / Download Speed Down 75%



Our small business uses Cox Cable for internet access. We have been
using a Cox installed and configured Netscreen Router. Agreement changes
(initiated by Cox) required us to provide our own router. Changed to a
Linksys BEFSX41 Firewall Router. Now, our download speeds seem to be
only about 25% of what we enjoyed using the Cox Router. Measured this
(before and after installation) using
http://www.pcpitstop.com/internet/Bandwidth.asp . Yeah, I know a lot of
things can affect speed, and online tests can be sketchy , but this
seems extreme. Any ideas?. BTW-I'm holding right now for Cox tech
support. Thanks.

Quality is a function of design, materials, and craftsmanship.
Inspection can only confirm quality or reveal deficiencies.
In no case, can quality be inspected into anything.
