My cable/phone company offers the following package for cable internet:

Download speed up to 256 kbps :lol: (it doesn't even advertise the upload speed) for $39.95/month (with modem and surge protector lease).

To make matters worse, here are my latest tests:

:::.. Download Stats ..:::

Connection is:: 56 Kbps about 0.1 Mbps (tested with 97 kB)

Download Speed is:: 7 kB/s

Tested From:: https://testmy.net/ (server2)

Test Time:: Thu Dec 15 19:49:52 CST 2005

Bottom Line:: 1X faster than 56K 1MB download in 146.29 sec

Diagnosis: May need help : running at only 9.15 % of your hosts average (netins.net)

Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-A2YNRG9WQ

:::.. Upload Stats ..:::

Connection is:: 119 Kbps about 0.1 Mbps (tested with 97 kB)

Upload Speed is:: 14 kB/s

Tested From:: https://testmy.net/ (server1)

I've installed cablenut, ran spybot and Norton anti-virus and nothing is wrong.I've also read some of the other stuff on here, but nothing seems to help :-|

I'm about to throw the whole thing out the window.
