What speeds do you get?

Just changed isp's to bt. Its meant to be a 8meg line but its set at 2 megs but its still only the first day hopefully it will go up.

anyways they give you free access to giganews but its limited to 3 connections and so the most i have got so far is about 250 kbps.

From my ISP's news server I get anywhere from 50kbps to the 150's on a good day. With the premium news server just under 200kbps. The max download is rated at 384 - so I only get a little over half of that

FIOS (fiber optics) is coming next year - maybe - so no updgrades to our DSL until then.
384/1.5 isn't so hot.

I get 240kbps.

Hopefully I'll get 8mbps very sooon

I'm on 8Mbps and I use SSL connections to my news server so I get 850KBps 24/7, otherwise it drops to ridiculous speeds in the evening - they even half it during the day too.
