I live in a rural area and this is the max connection I can get with regular adsl.

We had a much faster connection a year back, but decided we never used it all. Got a cheaper connection at home and used some of what we saved for a cellphone dataplan or whatever you call it over there. Now we can surf as much as we want using 3g/HSDPA on the cellphone or via a usb modem hooked to laptop for a fixed price. Much more conveniant for us and overall abit cheaper.

It's funny this thread came up just as I started having major problems with my connection. Tech came out and dialed my signal down a couple of db so now it's "better". Pingplotter sez otherwise.

Can't seem to get the results to post.

2536 down
719 up

Nowhere near what it "should" be.

Pretty good for my provider. Must be a low traffic internet day.
