It took them about a week for mine to get up to speed about 5Mbps constant give it a couple days and see what happens

were going to prolly switch from crappy insightbb cable to sbc 6/608 DSL

I have DSL Elite, and had a number of problems when it was first switched on. I had 3 calls to tech support in India, where they told me to do the same things I was doing on my own. Then, I'd get escalated to a level 2, here in the states, and those guys were awesome. Ran diagnostics, and scheduled a tech to come out to my house. He gets the full bandwidth from the central office to my house, and here I get the following stats:

I've gotten better scores, late at night of course, but I really have no complaints at this point in time. When the guy came out to my house, he essentially changed my box so that I didn't need a filter anymore (house was wired for 2 line phones, and just put the dsl on one of the two twisted pairs). He also replaced my line from the house to the pole, and all of my intermittant connection problems were fixed. What really blew the guy away was the internal network I have in my home. It's a little more than what he's used to seeing, I think.
