I recently upgraded my Verizon DSL Account to 3/768. I live in Brooklyn, NY and my download results are nowhere near where they should be. This morning I was registering at 2700, and for the last 8 hours, here is where I have been:
:::.. Download Stats ..:::
Connection is:: 308 Kbps about 0.3 Mbps (tested with 386 kB)
Download Speed is:: 38 kB/s
Tested From:: https://testmy.net/ (server2)
Test Time:: Sat Jan 14 00:36:00 EST 2006
Bottom Line:: 5X faster than 56K 1MB download in 26.95 sec
Diagnosis: May need help : running at only 6.53 % of your hosts average (verizon.net)
Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-KP8EA4LU2
My upload hasn't really changed. Here are the results:
:::.. Upload Stats ..:::

I'm running Windows XP Pro with SP2 through a Belkin Wireless (Computer I'm testing on is Hard Wired through Ethernet) High speed Router and have used the cablenut tweak with no improved results. I read in another form that customers in the Brooklyn and Queens area are having problems with slow speeds because Verizon can't keep up with the rate of new customers. Could this be true?
Any help would be appreciated.
