I've had problems with my ISP before. That was having no connection at all. And now my upload is faster than my download.

How on earth does that happen? And is it something hardware/software related before I go blaming my ISP?

Might have just been a bad moment for your ISP, me I get 28MB/S download speed and 18MB/S upload speed. :) 'Course no site supports that much bandwith so it doesn't really matter after 3mb/s.

I'm guessing DSL? Who's your ISP provider?

Never heard of them. Have you tried calling customer support and asking what it might be? I doubt that the problem is with your computer.

You don't happen to live in Northern Florida, do you? Also make sure you aren't torrenting. It doesn't measure your actual speed, it measures at what you can do at the moment.
