This is exactly the sort of problem I need to fix. in a nuthsell : dsl 
modem parked in the machine room at home, i get 1.2megs uplink and 
7.3megs downlink. With the modem parked downstairs, next to the BT 
master port, i get 2.1megs up and 17.6 megs down. however, that will 
need about 50 meters worth of cat5 to connect. Not too keen on doing 
that  :)

Also, moving the internet link to wifi would mean my wired network can 
all finally go jumbo-frame'd gigabit. Since the dsl modem is the only 
thing in my network which does not like either jumbo's or gigabits.
