14. My tally:
Edited on Mon Jun-13-05 01:32 AM by HypnoToad
2005-06-13 02:31:07 EST: 1232 / 765
Your download speed : 1262481 bps, or 1232 kbps.
A 154.1 KB/sec transfer rate.
Your upload speed : 784108 bps, or 765 kbps.

Usually, my upload speed is closer to 968 kbps, but oh well.

Meanwhile, Qwest has a new dsl serice - same price, same upload speed, 2~4x faster download speed. Same price so why they don't automatically upgrade existing customers is beyond me...

And why are they called barriers? "Milestones" seems more apropos, they're not roadblocks trying to stop us!
