You are running a clean comp, right?
Have you tweaked it yet?
Are you on a router?
Have you defragged or cleaned out your registry lately?
Are you cleaning out your cache before each test?

seeing as your testing from jamaica your result looks pretty good.

dsl is usually capped pretty much right where the advertised speed is supposed to be. so i doubt any amount of tweaking would bring much improvement. plus, your connection isn't that fast that fiddling with the receive window would make much difference. is your upload as close to your cap as your download? and what os are you running?

animex like resopalrabotnick said dsl is usually capped at what your advertised speed is, in your case 256Kbps, so no amount of tweaking is going to make that connection go any faster. your at your max.

I agree... That test is not the worst i have seen. That 256 connection is right there for what you are supposed to get especially over seas.
