Great new server, same lousy connection

I should say that for more than a year, Time Warner Cable (business class) has had a very strong, reliable connection. About a week ago, though, they had a cable cut and lost DNS for all of Texas...then took about 24 hours to fix it. Today, the connection dropped again and they immediately leapt into action and promised to send someone around on Monday to take a look at it. I politely convinced them to send someone today instead, but the connection has returned of its volition.

I took advantage of today's extended outage to switch the old server (iMac 333MHz G3 with 512M/80G) out for the new server (PowerEdge SC440 Dual Core Xeon 2.4GHz with 2G/2x250G RAID1). As long as the business line stays online, this should speed things up a bit.
