Thinkpads Forum

The question is in the subject line. My net connection is decent (usually), and my machine is current. So why does ThinkVantage system update act like it's connecting through a 14400 baud modem? I half expect to hear that good old scratchy noise that those modems made during the handshaking phase.

I'd think a slick outfit like Lenovo or IBM would understand how much their customers value speed and time-saving.

Thanks.
