nope, you can't.
this was a good test for whiners who said their DSL was faster.
of course with all the hops and traffic on the internet, you'd never get anything close doing real world surfing
Nope and you can't do it either with your cable connection as the total bandwidth offered by cable systems is 5 meg per second. You only get this if you are the only one on the segment at the time.
My DSL offers just over 1 meg per second and it is there all the time and is very reliable. I doubt that it will offer a total of 5 meg per second anytime soon but I don't run the risk of sharing the bandwidth with as many as 50 other people either.
