I have a friend of mine who seems to be complaining that his DSL is on the slow side.
I went over to his house and checked it out and it seems relatively decent to me. He has a 1 Mbps DSL connection which equals to a theoretical 128 KBps. I installed utorrent and downloaded ubuntu as a test. With all the speed tweaks, I manage to get around 110-118 KBps steady. That's around a loss of 10-18 KBps. Is that about normal with the PPPoE, TCP/IP and DSLAM overheads? I would say it's aboooooooooout normal. Maybe a bit wee on the high side, but nothing to cry about. -- Best Regards, Zulfiqar Naushad
