I have had no issues at all with speed. I should also mention that this is one of the most reliable forums sites I have ever joined, site is rarely down. Excellent job Dennis!:thumbup:

loads fine at work, at home, at my parents, on my girls laptop... If the site connection were to be upgrades, what would you upgrade it to??? or would it be worth it to have it hosted by a 3rd party??

I'm not having any speed issues. And I even have the ads turned on as well. I visit many sites daily that are a LOT slower than this one.

Dennis, do you have a bandwidth usage chart showing the daily/weekly/monthly? What's the peak kbps (or mbps) in use at any given moment?

Ever since providers started capping use, there's been tools available for the home user as well.

I use a Linksys WRT54GS router at home but I loaded it with DD-WRT which has a TON more features in it. One being the ability to monitor your own LAN, WAN and Wifi traffic with daily, weekly and monthly charts. :D
