I have the Linksys BEFW11S4 wireless B router and it tops out on the wireless side at around 4800 down with 128bit WEP on.
If i turn that off i can hit 5000. If i plug my laptop into the router i can hit 6000 and that is the limit on my service.

My uploads always seem to test low when i test through testmy.net. I don't know why.

You know, I'm not really sure what the cap is. Do I need to contact my ISP to find out?

Well thank you. The 3mb didn't look right but that's the max that's advertised, so it had to be it.

Yeah, I know. I've got to enjoy it while it lasts, but I really hope it doesn't change for the worst.
