The speedtest seems to be a bit on the low side. I can download with a whopping 365 KB/s and upload about 50 KB/s. My adsl line is 5.2 Kilometers long and there is no cable internet available.
It is however a lot better then my previous connection (other ADSL technique with different modem, but same location). That was downloading with 100 KB/s. A simple 365 MB update took an hour to download.. Awfull.. Now that's less then 20 minutes, which i can live with.
I wish i had that speed on my adsl line, i get brace yourself...... a massive 12 KB/s and my upload is almost nonexistent at 0.1 KB/s.Image

+1. This is currently what I seem to be around. Really frustrating - I asked the building to be upgraded, but no dice. At least it's unlimited?
(my tether speed is faster!)
I usually get closer to 27mb/s down, maybe it's a bad day. It's never the less more than enough for all my online activities.
