Evelyn, the reason that you cannot match your upload and dld speeds (if you mean that your upload speed doesn't get anywhere near your dld speed) is because:
-Dld and upload bandwidths use separate "slots" in cable connections
-the upload bandwidth "slot" is typically only a fragment of the dld "slot".
Check my signature. For a connection of over 2Megs of dld bandidth, I only have a measly 128Kb upload bandwidth. And what's even weirder is, before I upgraded from 1Meg to 2Megs, my upload bandwidth was actually greater...
