Hello All, I subscribe to Linux Journal, which as gone digital only. When I go to get the digital copy, things time out with a connection closed message when I use wget. It can be anywhere from less than 1% to somewhere below 20%, and currently not doing partial downloads to continue, having to restart from scratch. I ran traceroute, and attach the results. Some of the times appear way out of whack. I am on the Telstra BigPond Ultimate Dial Up Plan, so each time I "connect", it is a local call fee, and a maximum of ten hours before being disconnected, along with the limitations of an _external_ 56K hardware modem. Just to put the lie to some of my experience, the current invocation is past 22%, but the traceroute was running concurrently. That should not have an effect, but then I think that some of the systems are badly misconfigured. It would be good to put a suitable "explosive" under the irresponsible sysadmins, and the incompetent management. Regards, Mark Trickett
