I have dsl through centurytel. The only 2 speed options that are avaiable in my area through century tell is 256k and 1.5
I ordered the 1.5 which is supposed to faster right?
well on my speed test it says 268 for downloads and 132 for uploads.
Is this correct? If not by how much fifference from what I am supposed to actually be geting?
HELP!!!!

call them up and say you're not getting the speed you are paying for. i switched to verizon dsl 2 years ago and i love it! speed is excellent and customer support is unparalleled.

first of all, why do you have the two USB AND Ethernet? i might use purely ethernet. 2d while you're soaring over your community Icon interior the equipment tray (down there on the suited) you're seeing your community section velocity. that may not your rather "internet velocity" DSL would not grant residential speeds that best that i'm responsive to. no person does rather except you pay nicely over $a hundred.00 a month verify your month-to-month invoice and then evaluate that to the charges on the speeds provided via your provider. not something is incorrect with your provider from that fringe of issues.

well to correct all the other people those results are correct
1.5 = 1.5MB...
if you take 2mb for example, this would out at 2048kbps and if u devide that by 8, gives = 256kbps(this is the maxium download speed possible).
so some how your getting just above the average but windows never really gives an exact reading.

Try several sites. If you download from a slow site, their speed will determine how fast you are getting things.
There are sites that let you find out your speed, try a few of those.
