Re: Extremely slow upload speed
Your Port Rates are correct as seen by the sync rate in the Modem, but that is not the only thing that controls your speeds. If the Service Type doesn't match, you get throttled to the Service Type speed instead. Usually they are matched, but I have seen the rare occasion where they are out of sync. For example you are Syncing at 6.0, but are getting 3.0 Plan speeds instead. That would be the 3008/384 Service Type and would show up as 2500 Down and 340 Up on speed tests.

The Covad Tech did verify the service plan was 6 Mb/ 768 kbps. |

I didn't believe it was something on our end. The Covad Tech said the circuit tests were passing so I'm not sure what's going on? Anyway, appreciate it. |

It's definitely on their end., but where exactly I can't tell. That is the hard part to determine. I have the same 6.0/768 Plan as you and my speeds are withing normal ranges.
