The Tortise and the Hare

I used to until I dropped my land line and switch to cable. It worked well when I had it, but it is VERY susceptible to problems or bad connections in the wiring and connections. I ran a dedicated line without a wall-plate to the modem. What is your speed supposed to be? Are you using a router?

You need to call verizon and see if you can get your speed upgraded. You should be able to get at least 750k-1mb of upload speed.

Dude, you got problems. 1. Isolate the problem •Make sure your filters are on everything except your modem. Run speed test •Bypass your router. Hook your computer directly to the modem. Run speed test •Connect modem to a different phone jack. Run speed test •If possible borrow someone’s computer or laptop. Use your modem and Run speed test If you still have problems, call Verizon. Your modem, your phone lines or both are the most likely your bottleneck. Even if your computer is not configured correctly your speed should be MUCH better. If your Router is the problem, it should be the easiest to fix. Let us know.

I just remembered Verizon used to give a free bump up too 3.0 if you call and ask for it. It has nothing to do with your Up speed problem (Down should be a bit better), but a free upgrade will be nice when your problem is fixed.
