Sadly with a question that's been asked a million times I'm sure.
First let me tell you I've been reading a learning from these forums for quite awhile. I can't begin to tell you how much I've learned from you sharing your knowledge. You guys rock!
Now for the redundant question. I just can't quite wrap my mind around this and when I think I have, I read something which puts me back home in my state of confusion.
Download speed ..... I have a consistent 5 mb down cable connection. (road runner)
With grabit I get a consistent 600 kb down speed. I'm also behind a Linksys BEFSR41 router.
Is this the down speed I should be getting on a 5 mb connection??
Also .... Can my router affect my download speed? (seems I read somewhere it could)
Thanks for helping me understand this once and for all
One more question ... If I have (8) connections going in grab it. And it shows my speed at 600 kb .... that speed would be combined speed of all (8) connections correct?
Thanks again

If your getting 600 KB/s then thats about right for a 5 mbit connection.

5Mb = 5x1024Kbytes
5Mb = 5120KBytes
1Byte = 8Bits
Therefore: 5120/8=640KBytes
So theoretically, 640KB/s is the maximum you could achieve on your connection.
