Re: Advertised speed.

Regarding the speeds, if it is advertised 6M they mean 6 megaBITS per second, not megaBYTES. 600KB/s download rate is right where it should be as you will never actually hit advertised speeds because of overhead. Speedtests aren't always accurate, go by "real world" download speeds.
I understand that... And re-reading my review, I could have been clearer. 6Mb/s is comparable to 600KB/s. That is why I was making the comment about the speedtests showing (on average) about 4Mb/s down, but my file transfers on certain files showing a download speed that was closely matching the transfer rate of 6Mb/s that I am paying for.

Other than that, I have been satisfied with Teksavvy.

Thanks for your comment.
