Im under streamyx 1mb plan. Here is my DSL Status (Huawei MT800 Adsl Router Modem)

Operational Status: Showtime/Data Standard: G.dmt
DSL Version: Y.1.28.150 / 2.1.050224e Latency: Fast
UpStream DownStream
Speed: 512 Kbps Speed: 2048 Kbps
SNR Margin: 20.0db SNR Margin: 32.5db
Line Attenuation: 0.0db Line Attenuation: 9.0db
CRC Error: 8 CRC Error: 2
FEC Error: 0 FEC Error: 0

I believe I should be getting pretty good connection speed right? I did the streamyx connection test. It shown me perfect 1mb connection.


However, when it comes to downloading softwares, files (not BitTorrent) .. My connection only manage to reach max 15kB/s most of the time. I download a 19mb antivirus software from official website took me more than 1 hour.

May I know what are the possibilities of this slow connection?

Just try out my connection at testmy.net
