csmdew Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 most definitely, the upload speed is usually about 10% of the download speed based on isps I have seen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjross2008 Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Depends your ISP!. But here the cap upload speed is 7.5 megs per second but usually its around 10 percent of your download speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luisam Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Most ISP provide the ADSL protocol, Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line where Bandwidth (and bit rate) is greater toward the customer premises (known as downstream) than the reverse (known as upstream). This is why it is called asymmetric. Providers usually market ADSL as a service for consumers to receive Internet access in a relatively passive mode: able to use the higher speed direction for the download from the Internet but not needing to run servers that would require high speed in the other direction. The up and downward rates are specified in the subscription contract and depend on the politics of the ISP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point, but I don't think his isp can actually give him 100/100 speeds on adsl protocol, not even if he sit right next to the dslam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think while copy/pasting your question, you seem to have also copy/pasted the buttons from another forums. See the first post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
