Default My 56k "speed"

I really wished that DSL was available here, but in the meantime I'm making the best of things. With my comp. tweaked out, and using Earthlink I'm gettin' some decent speed (for dial-up) Download is good, page loading is very fast, upload is yuk. The attached is from 4 different tests. (in case you can't see it in the pic: 82.6, 119, 81.9, 108)

I have access to a high speed connections elsewhere if I need to download a big file, so it's all good.

What are you guys getting with dial-up?
If not dial-up, then what connection do you have?

Nice pseudo speeds... come back when you put down some real numbers.
