This (internet) would be a great setup except for 1 thing. When I tried it
about a month ago, whenever my internet connection stopped, the computer
would dial in and re-connect but Dynastore would not automatically
re-connect. I had to "manually" stop/start it in order to receive quotes
again.

DB told me he will correct it on the next build. Otherwise, Quotespeed was
quite good.
