CableModem Problems with WindowsME Box

Mocomm_E · June 6th, 2001, 05:21 PM

OK. CableModem service was installed today, and on two of the three boxes on the LAN - good stuff!

But the third box, an Athlon-800 that is nicely equipped and running Windows ME seems slow and really sluggish. Pages load slower than the current aDSL. LAN is pumped through a router, but that is working fine since my two other computers are online and operating at a much improved (and noticable) rate.

Any known WindowsME issues with 3COM CableModems?? Or Cable Internet access in general? I know, seems like a stupid question - but I am at that point now.

Grr.

Thanks,
