Chances are, you'll get LOWER connects and speeds. By the way, a 150 ping is fairly decent and the download rate 5.5 corresponds to a connect in the 40's (mid to upper). What's your connect rate?

One thing to keep in mind is that the lucent DSP can be software upgradable, and uses about 3% of your processor. Although a hardware modem uses less processor, it must be flashed. Flashing is risky, as it could damage your modem. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it"
