 Broadband over phone line speeds - A thought - rtj70
I just tried speedtest to the same server but I am in Manchester (so distance is 900 miles). I got a download of 31.36Mbps and an upload of 5.65Mbps. But with ADSL etc. you cannot change the limitations of phone wires. Apart from the short distance to a street cabinet for the VDSL link (less than 200 feet) the rest of my connection is now fibre optic. And costs £25/month.

Picked at random, a speed test to Ghana gave a DL speed of 13.29Mbps and an upload of 4.25Mbps. Distance was 3200 miles (ish).
