That sounds about right actually. For some stupid reason, modems are usually measured in bits/s while download status monitors are in bytes. Since 8b=1B, your 24kb/s should download at 3kB/s, which apparently it does.

So at 2.5-3 kB/s, thats 16-19 days.

Unless you gave me kilobits both times ... in which case it would be 4-5 months.




Wow, I'm really bored right now
