that is absolutely freakin' horrible. You're talking less than ISDN speeds (well, 2 BRI ISDN). That sucks donkey balls. You have 2-3x the throughput of a dialup modem, basically.
When I had ADSL here, I got 80KB/sec downstream and 16KB/sec upstream (640/128). On cable now I have about 260KB/sec down and 32KB/sec upstream. So, anyway, to keep it simple: That Connection Sucks Donkey Cock. _________________ They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

lol. yeah, seriously man, i don't know how they manage to get that sold as being ADSL, that's awful beyond knowing.
I got ADSL too, and i got: - Download speed : 2840 kbit/s or 355 kbyte/s - Upload speed : 106 kbit/s or 13 kbyte/s If i'm not tripping then i should have a connection that's over 15 times as fast as yours, that's...bad. _________________ "I find a Burger Tank in this place?

Hmm. I agree with you satis, but lemme just point something out. (unless I am missing something)
I posted that i have Downstream 118kbs Upstream 65kbs you put 80kbs/60kbs that makes mine faster than yours? _________________ Games to complete: GTA IV [100%] (For Multiplayer next!) Fallout 3 [50%] Rock Band [35%] http://www.cafepress.com/SmeepProducts |

nono, I put 80kB/sec. That's kilobytes rather than kilobits. 80kilobytes = 640kilobits.
My current connection: 2080kb/sec down, 256kb/sec up. _________________ They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. |

My brother will get 8000 soon, sharing it with five other people.
I have to do it with 1024 down and 256 up. _________________ Melchett: As private parts to the gods are we: they play with us for their sport! |

Must be nice. I can't wait till broadband over powerline becomes an option. My fucking cable company is raising rates, the cock smokers.

why the fuck it called Tiscali 512?
512 Kbps should dowenload at 64 KBps! Yours is 14.8 KBps i have 16 KBps with NTL 128! _________________ "Well a very, very hevate, ah, heavy duh burtation tonight. We had a very derrist derrison, bite, let's go ahead and terrist teysond those fullabit who have the pit." - Serene Branson |

I did another speed test recently, and got much better results. guess something was bandwidth sapping. so maybe thats why.
