Hello bloat fighters,

Jim G. wrote me off-list:

   "[Y]ou can't adjust the cable modem; you can use your router
    (maybe) to evade the buffers there, by adjusting bandwidth
    shaping to keep the buffers from filling.  That's what I've
    done: my latencies are now about 10-20ms to MIT, even under load."

Can someone state more specifically what should be adjusted on
my wireless router?  (It's a Netgear Wireless-N 150 WNR1000v2.)

Can't find an answer to this question at:

Thanks,

Seth
