s...l...o...w... ppp xfers

["Rick Hayter" <rhayter@acad.udallas.edu>]

I'm looking for some troubleshooting help.
Slink is working like a champ in all aspects but ppp connection speed.
Actually, I connect at high speeds, but my sustained throughput runs from
only 200-400 bps!  When first downloading, I get a burst of speed, but in
seconds all activity seems to stop.... then another short transfer burst...
then another pause... etc. (I am using an external modem that works fine in
windoze98). Am I looking at a buffer overflow or handshake problem? What
should I do to help diagnose this? Thanks!
