1.1gig in less than 1 minute, that would mean more than 140Mb/s. The fastest
DSL line I have heared so far has 25Mb/s and it is not symmetrically, the
upload is much slower. I am not sure, but I think VDSL is doing 40Mb/s, still
not enough. How did you connect you DSL-Modem to the computer,
the normal 100Mb/s LAN is much too slow.

Please, do me the favor and stop shouting, it hurts my eyes.
