That is better then to be expected. DSL is based on ATM and ATM works with 53
byte cells with 48 bytes payload. Throw in Ethernet frames a
Maybe I can. The phone system in New Mexico is notorious for phone
lines run along the top of fences, which are frequently blown over in
75mph winds or trampled by cattle. DSL is simply unavailable in large
parts of the state, Albuqurque being one of the exceptions. In fact,

We have the most HORRIBLE telecommunications infrastructure run by a national

Don't YOU rub it in.
In Australia, the DSL infastructure (owned by Telstra) provides a
maximum of 1500/256 (down/up). Only now, you can get upto 6MB through
specific providers (because they have deployed their own DSLAM's) and
you need to be pretty close to the exchange (2-3 mile) to get those

I'm unfortunately at 1.5/768 DSL right now. In my neck of the woods, we
have a wireless internet provider, but I wasn't able to get a decent
signal. If it had come through, it would have been $60/month for 10mbps
synchronous, and that included VOIP service with a free ATA, all the

I should clarify. That's the fastest broadband speed available to most

Starting to offer 3 Mbps? There must be something in the "Small town" thread
about that. I think nationwide you can get 8 Mbps everywhere in the
Netherlands,
Looks like the phone company in my area is starting to offer 3MB dsl, and my
price is only gonna be 19.99 a month!
