Do I ditch ME and trying upgrading to XP? Anyone got any other ideas on
other settings I could change on ME box?


The OS shouldn't affect your connection speed. I regularly pull 1,290 to
1,301 downloads with SBC Yahoo! DSL Service on their 1,536kpbs Express
package. PPPoE and ATM overhead eat the difference between what I actually
get and my potential maximum; all with Windows ME.

USB 1.1 should be good for 12Mbps, considerably higher than your 2Mbps
maximum.

Have you tweaked your MTU settings in the Windows ME computer? It should be
capable of matching the Windows XP dl/ul speeds.
