In plain english your connection is capable of bursts of 1.0 Mbps but in real use your sustained speed will never be that high. In other words you'll never see a speed test that high, so don't pay too much attention to that, it's just a marketing term. As an example on satellite a burstable 128 Kbps upload means a real world 30 to 40 Kbps upload. As always YMMV edit>> If sbwireless.net is your only broadband option then just buy it and be glad you have a broadband option. -- Al Adelphia HSI 6000/768 Will Work For Captain Morgan or Admiral Nelson |
