Upload is usually capped around 60 KB/s for my brand of cable modem on RR's network & I've achieved higher download speeds when pulling multiple files from multiple sources. Just the other day I hit 1.9 MB/s.

Use one that is geographically closer to your own location, silly.

Thats like me testing my connection on a server in Seattle.

Nope just cable. Sudden Link (used to be Charter) sucks I guess. Not many other options here that I know of

On my wireless laptop upstairs. I'll try it again on my Linux server on my DMZ to see if there's a difference. Also, I bet my work VPN eats a chunk of this up...

Does connecting thru a router with 2 computers and a laptop on wireless thru it make a difference?
Inside each person lives two wolves. One is loyal, kind, respectful, humble and open to the mystery of life. The other is greedy, jealous, hateful, afraid and blind to the wonders of life. They are in battle for your spirit. The one who wins is the one you feed.
