Dear Pegasus,

You may test your link performance, via the following site:

http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/

As Sky suggested, you may see it slow down in the evening. Consider testing it at different times of day, and different days of the week. You may find a pattern of performance degradation. Also, you could compare your results, with the results of friends and colleagues.

I tested my link yesterday, against the NYC server. My download speed was 13,647 kps. My upload speed was 1,880. Please don't be distraught, if your speeds are substantially lower. I just downgraded, to a service, where my maximum download speed will be 256 kps, and my maximum upload speed will be 128 kps. I downgraded, because my promotional rate on the premium service, I had, expired.

I wish you the best,

Larry
