Try using the Java test on DSLReports rather than the Flash based test. I've found it to be much more accurate. I also receive the message about compression being used when I test with the flash test. I think it may be a bug.

I have also been testing using FTP on a *nix server as well. Both the server and PC are connect to a Cisco 2960 switch in the headend that is connected to the 7200 router. I can transfer ftp at about 80Mbps between the PC and the server, so they are not IO bound. The Site I am testing with is a ftp server located in a colo facility that we use and has sufficient bandwidth. This circuit is clean in the sense of not having CRC, framing or other errors but this is a new circuit and we have never gotten more than 5Mbps out of a single session (flow/ip) across the wan. I would have to double check the mtu, but it is currently the default. -- Brian Raaen Network Engineer [email protected] On Monday 07 April 2008, Brian Raaen wrote: > I am currently having problems get upload bandwidth on a Sprint > circuit.
