My downloads on myDirecWay.com's site are a whopping 75Kbps.  My UPLOADS however are around 200-300Kbps.

April 13th, 07:52PM - 229/159 Kbps
April 13th, 07:20PM - 161/234 Kbps
April 13th, 07:01PM - 188/299 Kbps

::::::::::.. Upload Stats ..::::::::::

thanks...

Still... my upload speed seems kind of up there.  As fast as it is, you'd think my download speed would be a little higher.  Has anyone else encountered this?

Apparantly, according to tech support, I'm on the "new" satellite.  They've only been using it for a few weeks, which could explain the upload speed.

Engineering is supposed to be "on it".. we'll see.

This test may take 1-2 minutes to complete.

test is finished.
..
** Speed: 773(down)/298(up) Kbps **
(At least 23 times faster than a 33 Kbps modem)
