Your current bandwidth reading is:

292.00kbps

thats 2.2mbps ASDL , but it fares well with download speeds , upload not so good,

Lucky, all I get is a 2.0 mbps with crappy 160 kb/s up and 40 kb/s down. :/

I'm fairly lucky in that Verizon FiOS is available here. We signed up for the reisdential 15 mbit download/ 2 mbit upload tier and recently got a free upgrade to 20 down/ 5 up. Still costs around $45 a month. I've been considering switching to the $35 a month tier, which is 10/2, just to save a little money.

The download speed is no help for webpages, of course, but it's a real boon for torrenting and downloading OS updates. The upload speed is the best part, I haven't seen any residential service in the US come close to these speeds. Makes using VNC over SSH somewhat nicer, and the lower latency is nice for games too.

I just hope they don't start using QoS on things they shouldn't mess with. I've been real happy so far, but it's still Verizon. We'll see how it all goes.

I have 3mb down by 800 up until stupid sympatico cut my upload saying something about connection stability problems, now I'm stuck with 512 up only, but it's still okay for torrenting and radio brodcasts.

I am on wireless so my connection speed won't be what it should be, but we have a DSL connection downstairs which our router connects to. Rolling Eyes
