RE: Whats your Connection speed?
I have BT Total "up to 8mb" but I live quite far from the exchange so I get
5,504kbps up (Maximum application speed attained 472kb/s)
448kbps down (Maximum application speed attained 42kb/s)

Notice that some people will post in kbits/s which is the speed reported by your ISP to make it look faster, this number is 8 times more than the kilobytes/s speed reported by most applications.
