Yeah, it was unfortunate that they teased us with 3Mb upload though. :) Of course, it is still usable so I won't complain about that.

The cable service in our area keeps lowering the upload speed. I think it is down to 64Kb or 128Kb now.

Tom, if you have an upload speed of 768 Kbps, that's a pretty fast upload speed. Usually the upload speed is much less than the download speed.

When our DSL provider increased our speeds, initially it was 3Mb up and down. Then, after everyone was converted to the new speeds, they dropped my upload to 768kb. Oh well, can't have everything.. :)

My only complaint with our DSL is that you must pay for a landline, even though we rarely use it.
