I get 8mbps down, 256kbps up. Post your speeds here! It would be nice if the fserves and admins would also post here.

Stop making me want to get Verizon FiOS even more!

Your speeds aren't fully there yet tho Vamp, you said 16mbit down, which is 2MBps, and your only getting 1.5MBps.

If I ever get my 15mbps up, I will serve again this summer.

I realised that Verizon fios is actually fiber optic!

Yes, Verizon FiOS is pure digital fiber optics to the home!

I am on an ADSL line, so your doing better then me!

I'm currently on a sluggish 2.5mbps down and 415kbps up (300kb/s down and 54kb/s up) for $25 a month for the Pro DSL package from AT&T.

**crash** · 04-20-2008, 04:49 PM

Oh i forgot to mention that i was on cable. And it costs around $35 (converted to USD).

Yeah i agree with that. Its so unproportioned. I expected like at least 512kb. The next plan i can upgrade to is 12mbps down, 512kbs up, which will cost me bout $15 more every month.

1.5mbps down, 256kbps up (= about 150/25). Upload sucks but it doesnt worry me because I dont upload much, and i'm happy to wait when I DL at 150kpbs (not that it takes that long). If we could get better upload speeds for a reasonable price over here I'd do it and serve.

Same problem here. My upload speed is the same as yours although the dload speed is 8mbps. If I have a free speed upgrade to bout 512kbps, i will serve.
