Damn! We are on AT&T (used to be SBC) DSL and we are supposed to be on some speedy upgrade plan. 1315 down and 323 up from San Marcos:(
Not impressed;(

Odd. My normal download speed has increased from ~600-700 kBps to about 840-850 kBps (6335 kbps on speedtest), but my upload hasn't changed (368kbps on speedtest)

Actually those numbers are pretty good for a consumer connection in the US.

How do you know when you have switched? Our cable channels are different, but we have not switched e-mail addresses. We just got another note a couple of days ago that said to be on the lookout for an upcoming e-mail that would direct us to make the e-mail address switch, but it hasn't come yet.

My speeds are similar to your original ones.



Edit: Never mind. I just read the post that points out the server at the bottom of the speedtest report... I'm not switched yet. There's still hope.

Numbers mean nothing really. These were taken one after the other.
