Can someone tell me why I can only publish at 13kbs when I am connected at
100mps?

Perhaps it's a restriction by your ISP or host?

FrontPage uses the internet connection and parameters created by / used by
Internet Explorer.

Close IE and FrontPage and right click the IE icon on the desktop.
Click Properties and then clear the temporary internet, history and cookie
files.
Then click the programs tab.
Click Reset Web Settings, and then uncheck "Reset my home page" in the next
dialog that displays.
Click OK or Apply all of the way out.

Then click Start > Run and type cmd and click OK
In the command window that opens type ipconfig /flushdns
and click enter.

( note: there is a space between ipconfig and /flushdns )

When it's done, close the command window and reopen FrontPage and see what
happens.

Another thing to keep in mind is: DSL and Cable modems remember their last
"optimum" connection speed and if there is a problem ( line noise, etc )
they will connect at and remember a lower speed.
To clear this, turn the modem off for 30 seconds, then turn it back on and
let it establish a new "Sync"

You have several reasons. First, DSL is definitely not a symmetric
allocation of bandwidth (the most deployed version is ADSL which is by
definition assymetric) which means that upload and download speeds are
definitely not the same. If an ISP does have the abiltiy to allocate
bandwidth symmetrically they typically don't simply because far more people
download content then upload it. Throttling the upload speed enables the ISP
to offer better download speeds for everyone. Another reason is simply just
because you have a pipe a certain size doesn't mean you can utilize it. The
server you may be posting files to is, itself, busy doing lots of things so
your publish may not be that high of a priority, or it may be processing the
information as fast as it can and doesn't want to go faster. Because you are
communicating to another device that may be busy doing it's own thing or
could have it's own limitations on connection speeds you will rarely, if
ever, receive anything close to the maximum upload speed for a site.

Also, the connection speed can be misleading. A very good ISP will have
about 6 mbits/second bandwidth available to you. Your Ethernet connection
however won't show that amount since it knows nothing about it. It only
knows the speed it negotiated with the device it's plugged into. If you're
plugged directly into a cable modem or a router, your connection speed on
the computer will show exactly how fast you can be connected to that
particular device. 100 mbits/second is the typical connection speed for a
modern ethernet device (unless of course it's a Gigabit Ethernet device but
there is no need for a cable/dsl modem to have this connectoin speed simply
because you won't be getting that much bandwidth). So, your Ethernet icon
will show 100 mbits/second but in actuality you may only get 6 mbits/second
or lower. Lots of DSL plans are really only 1.4 mbits/second or even lower
at about 700 kbits/second.

The reason for this is that your internal network (either from a router you
are using or directly from your cable/DSL modem) is operating at 100Mbps.
However, your DSL/cable Internet connection isn't going to be anywhere near
that fast. DSL is generally around 1Mbps down and between 1/2 and 3/4 Mbps
up. Cable is the same up in most places and oftentimes a bit faster down.

In this case, your up speed is still pretty slow, but keep in mind that it's
also limited by other factors such as the speed at which your host is
accepting the data.

The pipe at the other end may be clogged.
If the site you are uploading to, or downloading from, has a bandwidth issue
it becomes your issue if you are trying to communicate with it.

Example: I have a 56k modem and I am downloading a file. You connect to my
computer. The pipe on my side is then divided into two 28k connections. You
could be on a 5 megabit line on your side, but it does not matter if you
want to talk to my computer. When you hit my end of the pipe you are going
to go to 28k.

That scales. If the remote site has a 10 megabit pipe, but has 20 active
users, well, you can do the math.
