What is a Good DSL Speed
You can do a DSL speed test to know how fast your connection actually is. When doing this, it's highly recommended that you shut down any other programs accessing the interent, since these programs may greatly impair (slow you down) when testing your internet speed.
For your information, the following represent average speeds for each type of high speed internet connection.
- DSL- 768 Kbps up to 1,500 Kbps (approximately 25 times faster than standard dial up service)
- Cable - from 500 Kbps up to 2,000 Kbps (approximately 30 times faster than standard dial up service)
- Satellite - approximately 500 Kbps downstream (still considerably faster than dial up)
Understand that DSL speed may vary as this type of interent service is oversubscribed. This means that many people/computers are pulling from the same resource. Hence, during peak times (evenings mostly) your internet access can be slower.
