No I wouldn't accept that. I'd have dropped you as a customer. Sending a tech out is expensive.

i'm pretty sure you have UP TO 5mbps, not minimum. I've never seen a minimum... other than the obvious of they provide you w/ a working connection.

Download speed is a little below the mark as I've pegged it at well over 600K with big files. Upload speed is right on the money though. 🙂

Also keep in mind that you have a pretty fast connection- a lot of speed tests don't have that much bandwidth to dish out, so you may be capped there.

BellSouth FastAccess DSL Service is a best efforts service. The actual speed experienced by customers is based on DSL sync rate and may vary and depends on several factors including customer location, destination on the Internet, traffic on the Internet, interference with high frequency spectrum on the customer's telephone line, etc. Wireless connections are subject to varying speeds based on factors such as: proximity to the wireless gateway, or interference from other devices. No minimum level of speed is guaranteed.

Terms and Conditions FTW

Zomg... I hate these Speed Test things because there's never a server in Canada to test from! :|

So.. you just linked a site that proved my point? It says "up to X Mbps" right there in the comparison columns.
