Either way it goes...you would be better off with cable....get out of the slow lane pal.

I have 1.5/384 and get every bit of that, minus about 15% for the "overhead." My downloads are rock-solid consistent at 160kB/sec and uploads between 35-40kB/sec 24/7/365. All of this for $39.95 per month (plus tax).

I love it **SO** much that I ordered a SECOND, identical DSL line (just received the DSL modem yesterday) and plan on BINDING BOTH connections in a Win2000 or Linux router system to aggregate the bandwith into a single 3Mbps/768Kbps connection. If this works well, I have two more lines (SOHO) that I can add that will give me a total of 6Mbps/1.5Mbps for an el-cheapo $160 per month.

I LOVE this thing!

I have 768/384 ADSL (which is really SDSL and was sold as such) with Speakeasy/Covad, and my download/upload speeds are nowhere near those that have been mentioned above. I am also 12,000 feet from the CO, and the best I can do is a little over 700Kbps for a download, and that's an ftp transfer to and from my ISP. My downloads quite often are in the 400 to 500Kbps range, tho on a good day, they can be in the 600's. That's with an ftp transfer tho. Regular downloads are nowhere near that good, especially after accounting for overhead, and my best speed test from DSLR took place today from the Eastcoast server of 656000 (down) / 568000 (up) bps. You guys are really getting some good connections and must be routed wonderfully. I have been looking into switching to cox@home due to my horrible DSL experience re: reliability and speed. I would be envious if I were that type of person.
JKK:-))

I have SDSL 784/784 through Megapath/Northpoint and get very consistent uploads and downloads near 80+ KBytes/second. Thats pretty darn close to reaching full bandwidth usage in both directions. I'm about 12,000 ft away from the CO.

Very good if you ask me. BTW, my roomate now has cable through Road Runner, and his download speeds are great, but the upload speed kinda sucks.
