MACs & cable modems...

[n1hlk at nsradio.org (Keith Triplett)]

Christoph, My brother has mac's on my network. And he complains to me that 
the downloads are slow. We ran a bandwidth test between my Win machines and 
his mac. Using the same test from 
http://www.2wire.com/services/bandwidth.asp  His MACs were slower by 
200Kbps. Oh, yes I have cable too.
