Not bad for a 5983kB test. The servers won't let me take a 2992kB test.

[brobertsleo]

I love my internet connection. For 19.99 a month I am getting very good speeds and only plan on getting faster in the future. SBC hasn't even finished optimized my internet connection yet... I don't do that much uploading so I am not very worried about the upload speeds but download speeds are extremely important to me.
