sucks that 20mbit = 14mbit

I suspect the caps may be around 15/5 and not 20/5 (their new upgrade speed which they've taken to 90% of their network).
The upstream speed seems about right, 5megabits upload gets you around 3.9-4.5megabits, nowhere near or over 5.0 megabits (4.6-5.25 megabits would be better). My upload stays around 3.8 megabits to just under 4.6 megabits (around the high limit on a GOOD day). Anywho, thankfully for Verizon, I'm not an avid uploader

I get 20/5 (ish)

Are you trying to test over wireless, or using another router in the chain?

Re: sucks that 20mbit = 14mbit

I get around that speed too (20.x/4.4), I was referring to the poster.
On wireless I can get nearly my full wired speed with an external wireless-g usb adapter. Internal gets a few megabits less.
