Your ISP designates more speed toward download rather than upload, they do this because people tend to download more than upload.

Thank you for your reply.

We apologize for the confusion caused.

We understand your concern that you would like to know if Earthlink provides any
Symmetric speed for Cable connections.

Currently we do not offer the Symmetric speed option for Internet connection wherein
the Upload and Download Speeds are same.

Please note that the Broadband connection speeds has been devised in such a way
that the download speed is more than the upload speed based on the assumption that
customers download activities are more from the upload activities.
