hi!

i'm pretty new to dsl so i just wanted to ask a question. i signed up for a 128/64 kbps dsl plan with our telco (they're the only one offering dsl) and i tried the speed test at dslreports.com. the highest download speed i ever got was about 59kbps. is this slow for dsl? i'm in the philippines -- does this have any effect on the speed test?

thanks!

Overseas speedtest, select site nearest you:

http://www.testmyspeed.com/internationalspeedtests.htm


and download a file from fast server near you for real speed, not states:)
