why is the download speed capped so low in comparison to the upload speed, from past experiences i have noticed the opposite.

also maybe i am spoiled from having optimum online at home, but this semester the download speed seems to be capped extremely low. just trying to find out if that is intentional.

i use this website http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/

to test my connection speeds on a daily basis(using the ny server) results being this at the time of this post

I'll put in a ticket to see what can be done to increase the download cap. I ran a test on my home Road Runner connection and got these results
