after 15 months of trying, finally getting someone in marketing to pay a
little attention, kinda feels good...

even if they totally missed the uplink portion of the problem. Or maybe
they are doing detection?
From the url above....

*"NOTE:* You can set the *Upstream Bandwidth *to *Auto* or *Manual*,
whichever is necessary.

To allow your router to detect the maximum level, keep the default *Auto*.
To specify, select *Manual* then enter the appropriate bandwidth and select
Kbps or Mbps."

Perhaps some commentary on the above blog entry will clarify matters...
(keep it civil please!)

There's even a contest. Why didn't I think of that?
