is it possible for updating firmware to lower your throughput of a dsl modem/gateway? I just updated mine, and my throughput seems 5-10 Kbps slower than before i updated, according to pcpitstop.com (but on their forums, many people complain of getting lower speed results on the test lately, so i'm not sure if ,my speed has really been affected at all). These two light that normally blink simultaneously when there's network activity now blink differently (timing of the blink slightly dfferent, brightness of one light dimmer when blinking than before). I have Qwest DSL, ActionTec GT-701-WG DSL gateway. It might just be in my head, but it seems like i have to lead my shots a tiny bit more than before.
