Boobie

Well guys i just moved out of verizon area and gave up my DSL connection. Maybe someday ill return when they decide to upgrade DSL customers or if im back in the area. I did like the connection.

I like my connection, i just would like verizon to upgrade us soon. Lastest test seems fine: :::.. Download Stats ..::: Connection is:: 2821 Kbps about 2.8 Mbps (tested with 2992 kB) Download Speed is:: 344 kB/s Tested From:: https://testmy.net (server2) Test Time:: Sun Jan 22 2006 05:09:22 GMT-0500 (Eastern Standard Time) Bottom Line:: 50X faster than 56K 1MB download in 2.98 sec Though i can only get 2.8mbps when im on firefox but not on Internet Explorer. Cmon verizon get with it like Bellsouth.

Hopefully Verizon will bring DSL customer a upgrade soon! Happy New Year Everyone!!

How did he get it, did he just call in? Be nice but then i havnet heard anything about it or it could be just a local thing too. Just sure it was verizon, i belive bellsouth in FL and they have a 6mbps package.

See Verizon should do the same and not forget about their DSL customers and it all about FIOS because a person like me who lives in apartment complex wont see fios anytime soon. If they don't do any upgrade I'm sure people who have another option will take it. I know i will.

That would be nice a 5/896 or 7/896 but i think it due time for verizon to do that. Evenutally they'll realized that because there focus is on FIOS that their DSL customer are finding another provider like cable modem. I agree it looks like they forgot about DSL customer, that a shame.

Yes i do have the 3/768 i was thinking higher than that since i see other telephone can why not verizon. This is my 1st time getting the 3/768. I'm sure im lucky since alot of people can only get the 1.5/384 but i think it time that verizon upgraded im sure it possible. If other telephone company can do it so can they. 3/768 has been available foe a while now too. i was surprised to get the 3/768 i though i was going to get the 1.5/384 which in that case i wouldn't have kept.

I was wondering if anyone has heard of anything indicating that Verizon is going to upgrade their DSL customer to a higher tier of service. I see alot of other telephone companies can, i also see bellsouth is up there. And im my area Comcast cable it looking tempting. I like to stay with DSL but i think verizon needs not to forget about their DSL customer and think all FIOS. Especially a customer like me who lives in a apartment complex and wont see FIOS anytime soon. Cmon verizon where your upgrade to DSL.

Just got the upgrade yesterday and very surprise to see this speed at peak hour. I have the 8/768 plan it's 704pm

No speed burst here, but I'm still happy with my result. By the way wow how you guys get that high up?

Oh ok understand it now, Thanks for clarification tbaker397 and resi3js.

Not sure what you mean? You mean im provisioned wrong or the speedtest on here?

Thanks i guess 2.8mbps and 715kbps it as close to 3/768 as it gonna get. Verizon should provisioned higher so we can get the 3/768. Now im pushing it huh!!

Hi everyone i see I'm only getting 80% of my advertised speed and i was wondering if anyone can help me reach at least 90%? I have Verizon DSL 3/768 package, i have only one PC. I have tweak with the recommendation on here for the 3/768 speed. :::..

Thanks Pitbull481 for the welcome, glad to be here.

Yeah i guess it just me with that test. I did another test from a another website i check and i get this: File size transferred : 14.75 MB (15468724 bytes) Total time taken : 19.56 seconds (19563 milliseconds) Throughput : 790.0 KB/sec [Kilobyte-per-second] = 0.79 MB/sec [Megabyte-per-second] = 6320.0 Kbps [Kilobit-per-second] = 6.32 Mbps [Megabit-per-second] Upload: File size transferred : 3.02 MB (3167484 bytes) Total time taken : 34.45 seconds (34453 milliseconds) Throughput : 91.0 KB/sec [Kilobyte-per-second] = 0.09 MB/sec [Megabyte-per-second] = 728.0 Kbps [Kilobit-per-second] = 0.73 Mbps [Megabit-per-second] So it gotta be me with that particular test. By the way this test are at 742am no peak time yet. Will see what i get later.

I decided to try one of the test from the mirror and this is what i got. It also 217am That does look better

When i try that one i dont get as close, this is the one i was using b4 and i wonder since other people get good test result with that one but i dont. Hmm :::..
