Beginner Dsl speed results question?

I just tested my dsl speed on speedtest.net.





Is this good speed?


1299 kb/s download 322 kb/s upload





My taskbar say i'm connected at 12.0mbps. My dsl package say I suppose to get "up to 1.5 meg download". I don't know what those numbers mean.





How is my speed? If it's bad how can i increase it. Thanks.


|||Speedtest gives your speed in kiloBITS not kiloBYTES (which is what most people refer to when it comes to downloading, especially with torrents).





1299kb/s = 1.29Mb/s, so that's pretty close to what your DSL package states as speed. Your upload is pretty slow though.





Your taskbar is probably referring to the speed you are connected to your modem/router, not the speed of your ISP.|||Purchase a faster plan.|||Well... I'm on 20mb download speeds. And i get 14,000kb per second...





So that is 6mb down than what i got told.


But the internet isn't perfect.





And when I was on 2mb I was 1500kb download
