Re: Long Overdue said by ronpin:A 15% DSL speed overhead/loss is absolutely guaranteed! At least impose that statement! Yah, for the misinformed like yourself who couldn't fathom to think that some DSL ISP's actually over sync to compensate... Check some DSL speed tests here sometime and see all of the people who have 6 meg service who constantly are running 6.2-6.4 mbps. |

I would say that would be the very first time I have ever heard of a DSL provider over sync'ing. |

Well, I'm sold 1m/128k DSL, but regularily test at 1.2m/240k ... I don't complain, though I wish faster speeds were offered  |

The higher sync isn't enough to cover overhead. With Verizon DSL I was synced at 3.3Mb and saw just over 2.8Mb. Same with my 7.1Mb service with DSL Extreme. I was synced at well over 7Mb and was lucky to see 6.5Mb. Other ISP providers seem to have the same result. |

Agreed with both RideRed & Cod---but---I've noticed that this is true the closer one gets to maximum offered speeds. My 'on the cheap' 786 DSL regularly hits at or above 786. When I paid for higher speeds, they fell short more often than not--many times not even close to what was being offered.
