Default DSL Speed with Century Link
This is in reply to ZCaveman.

I have signed up with CenturyLink for phone and internet, and am paying $40 for the 8MB service, which is the highest I can get in my location (Sunset Pointe). That is, "up to 8 MB". I am actually getting around 5.5 MB download and 0.75 MB upload.

I needed the highest upload speed I could get, as I do webinars and the VOIP works best with a higher upload speed.

Both the speed you can subscribe to, and the speed you actually get appear to be very location dependent, even within TV.
