              English doesn't borrow from other languages. It follows them down dark alleys, knocks them over, and goes through their pockets for loose grammar.

                The 100 Mb/s Ethernet connection between the NIC and cable modem doesn't seem to help with the 3 Mb/s cap Cox sets on the downstream. And it sure doesn't help with the measly little 256 kb/s upstream.

                  I've got 128 up, and with PPPoE that's more like 100 up, if I'm lucky.

                    Shame, I was looking forward to you showing us what a real connection was.

                      Yup, my "128" up on swbell dsl is more like a rock solid 92.
                      On the other hand, my "384" down is more like 1,200.

                      PS No PPPOE though, thank God.

                        PPPOE bad?.................... why?

                        Am I just lucky here then?

                        Running a 512 down 256 up DSL link based on PPPOE and see those figure in practice via my Alcatel "FROG" Speedtouch USB ADSL modem.

                          Maybe nothing now that so many home broadband routers support it in firmware.
                          But my Dad has it in software and it SUCKS.
                          Frequent disconections, unexplained slowdowns and just general badness.

                              Yes, you may see those numbers, but PPPoE is a crappy little wrapper. Whatever bandwidth it says you're getting, you can reduce that by about 20%, because that's the bloat that PPPoE is adding.

                              Go to DSLreports or somewhere. Their bandwidth test even shows the graph in two sections - total, and effective (after PPPoE is accounted for).
