why man ,this is not fair.

if you pay for a faster connection you can download faster: however, your download speed can also be effected by the Upload speed of the server you are connecting to.

so if your download speed you pay for is 20Mb/s but the server you download for can only upload at 1.4Mb/s then the max speed you can download is 1.4Mb/s

no broadband connection.

"Not fair" depends on how much it costs the ISP to supply you that bandwidth.

100Mb/s for $40/month may be expensive in Toyko but 100Kb/s for $100/month may be cheap in New Zealand.

Are we talking Kb/s or Mb/s speed?

my dial up modem does 56Kb/s.

usually broadband should be around 500kb/s and up


What speed are you paying for and what speed are you suppose to have?
