Super Slow VZ DSL

Jan 24, 2014 11:56PM PST

My VZ DSL speed test reflects .63 download and .37 upload. I'm paying for 2.00 download. What is the download speed for dialup?

I no longer can write that anything is wrong. But dialup varied from slow to about 56kbps.

The fastest I ever saw with a dial up hook up, in this area, was about 40+- kbps and back in the day..we thought that was good **LOL**

What did VZ say when you complained?

30% of the promised maximum you pay for is on the low side. Two thirds (67%) should be rather good.
