Jack If you have a T1, you should be getting the same up and down.

What I meant was after install speedtest was testing at 1.5 but downloading from newsgroups tops out at 178kbps. Download and upload are usually the same, but today Speedtest.net is showing a slight difference. I have QOS turned on on my router so I doubt speedtest would show 1.5 anymore. ![[Linked Image from speedtest.net]](https://www.speedtest.net/result/370033944.png)

Gee, used to be that a T1 was the gold standard for speed. And here I am complaining about my lousy speed. <a href="https://www.speedtest.net"> ![[Linked Image from speedtest.net]](https://www.speedtest.net/result/370090985.png) </a>

jacktucky, if you consistently get ping timings over 200ms, you may want to give ATT Worldnet a call.

![[Linked Image from speedtest.net]](https://www.speedtest.net/result/370633288.png) And this is one to the Owensboro server: ![[Linked Image from speedtest.net]](https://www.speedtest.net/result/370634995.png) Seems like I'm getting double your numbers and half the ping time, and I'm 700 miles farther away.

Unfortunately, ISPs are not obligated to provide low latency in connections, unlike their obligations re:bandwidth. But they should be able to provide more efficient routing (if they want to keep you as a customer?) This is a nifty tool, the lite version is free. Try the "live" demo: web page

Originally posted by arc: I was looking over some pinout charts, and noticed that the RJ-48C seems to be the same as the RJ-48X jack except for the shorting bars. It says here that both of those jacks are for 1.544 Mbps data service. Where would you use the RJ-48C (without the shorting bars) instead of the RJ-48X (with the shorting bars)?
Is "1.544 Mbps data service" always a T1 or PRI line, or is there some other 1.544 Mbps data service out there? Use RJ48X if you can-- the reason is simple. Automatic loopback if you disconnect your side. Benefit: The local CO won't get a LOS/RED Alarm, and they won't OOS your circuit after a period of inactivity.
