Gene.... photochopping your numbers doesn't make it real!

45mb in Kansas! WOW!

I just tested my cell... TMOBILE. Getting 2.5mb right now, but TMO is supposed to be feeding me 7.2mb. Even so, 2.5mb on a cell phone is pretty sweet!

Mine is slow today, but supposed to be at 10mb/s download. My cable company just started to offer 40mb/s for extra money of course. I'm happy with what I have now when I think back to the old days of 256k baud rate modems, I'm ecstatic!

ATT Dsl, we're too far from the sub-station to kick us up to the next level.

I can't check my std DSL home connection at the moment, but last time I did I think it was about 2.6MB or 2.8MB down and somewhere around 700KB up. We just started the Netflix trial and using an older WiFi setup, I am still getting HD quality a lot of the time. There are usually a few very minor hiccups, but I am VERY impressed even with this. So, can't imagine what 10X that speed would be like.

Damn Phillip...you're the only one that was slower than me. I wonder if slow speed is typical for our area.

My ISP knows it's slow, they're looking into it and have been for several years now with no change.
I've had nothing but problems here, mainly drop outs and slow speeds, I've had technicians almost living here.

I get around 4-5 megabit, about 1 megabit up. Being out in BFE I'm thankful we're not on dialup though, there is literally 70 miles of nothing (except the Bonneville Salt Flats and some mountains) in a radius around us. My friend in Vegas is getting their 50 mbit connection, sometimes I'm envious, but realistically I rarely use my current capacity anymore.

charlie,, if you call and moan about the bad speeds,, they can sometimes do a reset and clear the whatever they clar,, and the speeds will go back up. SBC is the same as mine.. And I did the old whine deal and it worked. But, you just can't say "it's slow,, Give them some numbers.. but you should be getting at least 1500 down and 500 up.

They will also say every thing is fine.. It seems they do a test then do a reset and then check system and declare it all good.
