i have a t-mobile usb modem for mobile broadband in the uk (can't get a wire at home at the moment). they've got some traffic shaping going on or something as the quality of bittorrent downloading or yousendit uploading (i collaborate on music over the net so it's not all piracy) varies greatly but if i'm doing some basic browsing the connection speeds are higher. i'm guessing that the traffic shaping can't deal with the less isp friendly activity so well if it's clouded by regular web surfing. at the moment i get round this by having the basic google search page auto refresh every 5 secs and it seems to help. something like AntiPhormLite might be better though. any thoughts anyone?

oh, and after a mac solution too.
