800 b/s to 50 k/s cable connection


I am running Mandrake 8.2 (kernel 2.4.18-6). My cable internet
connection has been inconsistent; it varies from 800 b/s to
50Kb/s. I have a 1/4 T-1 connection. I have been on with Cable
One and they are telling me I have no thru-put.

Here is what I have tried:
Using another cable modem. Behaviour is the same.
I went to a friend's house and plugged my computer in
Same behaviour.

Here is what I am trying to do, unless there are other suggestions

I am trying to remove eth0. This is onboard a SiS motherboard.
I am trying to enable eth1. This is a PCI NIC.

What is happening:
Both my NIC's are recognised, I can disable eth0 (onboard NIC)
When I go to enable eth1 I get "Stop modprobe: can't locate module eth1"

What I am being told?
How do I resolve this problem?
Or, I am going down the wrong path?

Thanks

Post Question

Do you get the same with windoze? If you do it's probably just to many on that connection. Gripe a little more.

I wish I had that though. I have a dial-up and it's only 24K at max.

I'm going to go have a good now. Excuse me...........

contents of etc/modules

alias usb-interface usb-ohci
alias eth1 8139too
alias eth2 sis900
alias eth0 sis900

I only use eth0. The other aliases should be commented out?
