can someone help me..
AS i uploading 100 mb i= 1 hours…. this sux
Answer #1
Usually… your download speed will be what the ISP says (In your case 512kb/s)… But the upload speed will be different (generally it is slower)
Don’t ask why… Thats just the way internet providers work. When choosing a new plan, you should ask your ISP to give you both, good up and download speeds.
Answer #2
yes, i understand but the uploading speed shouldbe atleast above 30 kb…. as when i was using my 256kb… after 11 PM my speed is always Doubled and uploading speed is also doubled this mean i was uploading @ 40 kb…
I think i will have to ask them again for the uploading speed.as i cannot bear 1 hours to upload 100 mb
Answer #3
with that bandwidth you can be happy that it only takes one hour…i have a 128kbs/1Mbs upload/download so my upload is around 15-20kb/s. More money, more speed…
Answer #4
Exacly , more money more speed ..
I have upspeed 15 KB :/ and Download 500 ( max ) KB/s
Answer #5
you didnt get ….
earlier when i was using 256kb myuploading speed was 30kb
now i am using 512 kb … the uploading should be atleast above 40 kb.
Answer #6
I think you are correct the ratio of up/down should remain the same if its the same provider so with doubled download you should have doubled upload speed The reason most providers use ADSL (assymetrical digital subscriber line) is that the majority of users do more downloading than uploading
Answer #7
I have a download of 1.7 mbs a sec and upload of 70 kbs a sec so don’t feel to bad.
It all depends on your connection, where you are located, and what you pay.
Answer #8
u gets what u pay for and whats available in ur part of the world…..move to japan for awsome d/l & u/ls
Answer #9
Lol… better to change the IP …. though i contacted the ISP provider… as what i am hearing from my friends… if you have download speed of 60kb so your upload speed also should be 60 kb….

This would only be true for SDSL (symetrical ) noty for ADSL (asymetrical )
just google it to see
Symmetric Digital Subscriber Line (SDSL) is a Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) variant with E1-like data rates (72 to 2320 kbit/s). It runs over one pair of copper wires, with a maximum range of about 3 kilometers or 1.86 miles. The main difference between ADSL and SDSL is that SDSL has the same upstream data rate as downstream (symmetrical), whereas ADSL always has smaller upstream bandwidth (asymmetrical). However, unlike ADSL, it can’t co-exist with a conventional voice service on the same pair as it takes over the entire bandwidth. It typically falls between ADSL and T-1/E-1 in price, and it is mainly targeted at small and medium businesses who may host a server on site, (eg a Terminal Server or Virtual Private Network) who do want to use ADSL, but don’t need the higher performance of a leased line.
SDSL was never properly standardised until Recommendation G.991.2 (ex-G.shdsl) was approved by ITU-T. SDSL is often confused with G.SHDSL; in Europe, G.SHDSL was standardized by ETSI using the name ‘SDSL’. This ETSI variant is compatible with the ITU-T G.SHDSL standardized regional variant for Europe.
SDSL equipment usually only interoperates with devices from the same vendor, though devices from other vendors using the same DSL chipset may be compatible. Most new installations use G.SHDSL equipment instead of SDSL.
Answer #11
well… then….. when i had 256 Kb…. and at midnight… i used to get a download speed of 60kb…. and uploading speed of 40 kb……..
Now when i have updated i 512 downloading at nearly 70Kb… and uploading at 28 Kb….
It doesnt make sense..
i have contact the provider they said they will call me about the problem … so i think i shalll wait for their repsonses.
Answer #12
Other factors can interfere, for example… the amount of people from the same ISP as you browsing the internet… and your distance from your nearest exchange server.
