I need somone to clear somthing up for me. I have a Bellsouth Fastaccess DSL internet connection, which SHOULD be at least a 256k connection. I only looked really hard for the first time today, and from what I've gathered, this means that I should receive files to my CPU at least 256kb/s, right?
However, the test file my friend is sending me now over AIM file transfer says 26k/s, and its been coming in steady at that same speed for the past hour. This download rate is worse than a 56k modem users, isn't it? Can somone please tell me how to optimize my connection?
The worst ISP ever. .. .. AOL, they are the biggest piece of -blam!- anyways, your Downloads will never download at your full connection if your on 1mb you should download at aroun 100 - 120kbps aas for your 256kb, get rid its a piece of crap. the reason it doesnt download at your full speed is because your computer may be using other resources which are connected to the internet, although it really depends on what site you can download at, at fileplanet i can download at the full 8mbps
