Subject: I'm having a big problem connecting to CCC

I'm having a big problem connecting to CCC since switching to a cable service,
which is supposed to be faster than over the phone lines, but at CCC it's about
50 times slower than accessing it over the phone lines.

So I had someone from the cable company come back out and run some tests, and he
checked everything out, and according to him, everything is working, _except_
here at CCC!  There's nothing he can do to fix this problem, he claims everthing
is working on my end and I need to contact CCC's webmaster (Tim?) and ask to
check CCC's TCP/IP settings.

He ran a Trace on CCC and it went through about 14 routers, and one in Atlanta I
guess had a bit of a lag, has says posibly I bypass that router with my phneline
connection.

But this whole thing is very aggrivating, because I can't get it fixed on my
end, and the local cable tech claims that the problem is most likely CCC's
TCP/IP settings.  Am I stuck with a slow connection here?  Because it's not just
slow, it's REAL slow.  You know those days when CCC got slow because of server
problems?  It's _allot_ slower than that.

Any ideas?  Thanks.

Pete
