If you guys want to test your speed use this:

Did a few tests, most I got was 2833 Kb/s down, 384 kb/s up......and probably averaged 1.5 to 1.8 mb/s through a few other tests.

Keep bragging! I can't even get my DSL to work at home.
Few days ago, the shortcut icon to DUN stopped working. Connection setup appears to have gone bad. I tried re-installing it w/ the ISP setup disk and got stonewalled by "DUN cannot be found or unable to create new DUN" error.
Tried re-creating the DUN manually and got stonewalled again. This time by the ghosted-out "create connection w/ user id and password" option. This appears to be the cause of the problem. WTF!! I hope I don't have to reinstall my OS... sigh

I think VTEL just kicked in!! That looks to me like a test using data pulled from the Calix or Alcatel DSLAM. The real-world performance will no doubt be lower than 16mbps in most cases, but downloading from a site like yahoo should be around 1.5megabytes per second........Justin u suck.
Just a note about those speed-test sites... those are measuring your throughput across the Internet, to that speedtest site - not your actual connection size. If the speedtest site has problems with their connection (considering these sites host this for thousands, if not millions of users it's quite likely they have a bandwidth problem) then your connection will look slow. We have a terrible time with customers using these and then complaining that they have a slow connection. The fun part is if they go to a different speedtest web site they get vastly different results... while the path across the Internet may be different, it does demonstrate that the "connection" speed is not being accurately measured.

I finally found a tap at the other that would not limit me at my end.
downloaded 100 meg video clip at 508kBytes/sec or just over 4 mbits/sec.
comcast cable.
