First off, I am sorry if I posted this in the wrong place!
I just got DSL today from our small telephone company (the only choice in town for ANYTHING). Anyway, they do not get the whole upstream/downstream thing. Totall over their heads. This company is full of airheads, but that is beside the point.
Anyway, my download speeds are great - about 220 kbps! I love it, but my upload speeds are at 35 kbps! SUCKS. They tell me that both the download and upload stream are BOTH capped at 250 kbps.
Why am I only uploading at 35 kbps.
This is on a Win XP machine 2.0 Ghz with 256 MB of RAM. No viruses are on it.
I compaied the speed with another friend and they are about 200 kbps both ways. My ISP doesn't understand anything I am telling them. It is like I am talking in greek, so hopefully someone out of this group of smart people can help me out. Thank you so very much.
