FCC Offering Broadband Speed Test [pcworld.com]

The Federal Communications Commission recently launched a free broadband speed test you can use to check the speed of your Internet connection.

You can find the test on the homepage of broadband.gov, but before you use it there are a few things you should know about the broadband test. This isn't just a free public service; the FCC will store your test data and could use some of your information to form its national broadband strategy.

Thanks engine. I just tested my house dsl. It does not look that great, only 660 kbs for upload and 356 kbs for download considering fact that att increased price for my service about 50% in last two years. I think, I need to give them a call.

Isn’t that funny! I just got letter informing me about a class action lawsuit involving my DSL service.

Quotes from the letter:

“A proposed Settlement has been reached in a class action law alleging that AT&T failed to deliver DSL Service to its customers at the speeds promised.”

“ You are included in the Settlement because you purchased DSL service from AT&T after March 31, 1994.”
