Re: EMBARQ F.A.Q. and Slow Speed Issues

said by bbjordan:

The result was 355 Kb to which she multiplied 8 to get the bit count. It came out to 2840 which she said was acceptable for a 3MB service. I was appalled and she all but called me dumb-ass for questioning her. She would not stay on the line while I re-ran the test through the router (it was the same speed).

This result was in the same range that my DSL Reports test were running, only in DSLR's case the 355 KB translates to .355MB.

.....I did not get a call-back from anyone, and never have...

Quite frankly sir you are a little ignorant of the whole "Big" B (Bytes) "little" b (Bits) difference. a DL speed of ~350KB IS FINE for a 3Mb connection.
