For several days my DSL Internet speed is 28.8 Kbps, is that slow?

I have no idea what this means, I'm paying 45.- per month, and my conections
speed seems very slow, is the 28.8 Kbps slow for DSL, please let me know if
this is good or bad...........Many thanks............

28.8Kbps is slow for DIALUP - for DSL it is practically
criminal. Are you sure your not accessing the internet
via a dialup modem and NOT your DSL line ? Do you hear
the line dial when you get on the internet ? Have you
looked in the Internet Options in Control Panel (the
Connections tab) and toggled it to Never Dial a
Connection ?

Good Luck !

Check that your internet provider doesnt lower the speed when you exceed you download limit.

unlimited. Wow, now I better look into it..............Peter
