Forgot to mention: My netgraph has no red lines, but usually
has a triangle-shaped appearance, like this:

                  -----|                  -----|
            -----/     |            -----/     |            -----/
      -----/           |      -----/           |      -----/

------------------------------------------------------------------

If you know what I mean... the ping goes from low to high, then
drops back down again, only to slowly rise again.  My ADSL modem
is connected via USB -- I heard that ethernet should be used, but
I don't have an ethernet-compatible ADSL modem (it's a D-Link
DSL-200).
