Michael S> What kind of problem are you having?
corvux> its too slow
Michael S> Are you downloading files? Or are pages loading slowly?
corvux> two
corvux> i make a speed test and i got this
corvux> Your connection is: 464 Kbps (about 0.5 Mbps)
You downloaded at: 57 kB/s
Your TRuSPEED: ^info^ 496 Kbps :: 61 kB/s (7% overhead factored)
Bottom Line: You are running: 8 times faster than 56K and can download 1 megabyte in 17.96 second(s)
Diagnosis: May need help : running at only 18.67 % of your hosts average (adelphia.net)

I got mine upgraded, but they screwed up! Supposed to have 4Mb down, 384Kbps up. I got the 4Mb down but i got 768Kbps up!

sHW33T! It's been like this for over a week. I hope my power doesn't go out any time soon though, cuz im sure if i reboot, Ill go back to 384.
Thx adelphia! 
It depends how much you are paying...you must of got this ISP when there was only one package 4000/256 which is $55 per month..then they dropped the price down to $45..instead of telling everyone this they just brought up your upload. I happen to me too but then I got Priemer because having fast upload doesn't help me since I download all the time
