  • UL speed misnomer?

    From Ogg@EOTLBBS to dove-net.internet on Sat May 25 08:47:00 2024
    I recently subscribed to fibre. The promise was 25Mbps UL/DL.
    So far so good wrt download speed. But when I needed to SFTP a
    few large files to my server, the max transfer rate I could get
    was 300KiB/s which translates to 2.5Mbps. So, I assume the UL
    speed limitation is placed at the server? Fast.com reports
    30+Mbps bidirectional.

    Anyone else here experience limited/reduced UL speeds during
    ftp transfers?

    What services provide unrestricted UL speeds?

    Where is the server located? Over how many hops? If you do a traceroute
    (or tracert in Windows parlance) to the SFTP host you'll see what's
    routing traffic between you and the server.

    that's real slow dude.

    are you confusing something? tell me how fast in kbps
