whats your download speed?

Well, last night i was getting an incredible 2.4kbps, but this morning, thank god, things have improved:

Your line speed is approximately 150.4 Kbps or 18.4 kBytes/sec

[quote="MrG]How do you know what you sync at[/quote]

You can check on your router (If your router is the standard Telkom Marconi, log in and check under the ADSL settings, halfway down the page it shows you a list of variables - SNR Margin, Line Attenuation, etc. - look for the one that says Data Rate: the number on the left is your downstream, on your right is your upstream.)

Anyone know where to find this on a wrt54gl with dd-wrt firmware?

Line is now syncing at 384/128

Speed tests haven't changed at all from 192k

Wtf are they up to?
mine had always synced at 320/192. But download was always 20kb/s and still is. Telkom is full of it.

The WRT does not have an ADSL modem in, it's just a router. You probably have another device between the WRT and your telephone socket, you need to look on this device (the ADSL modem) at what speed it's synching at.
