Why the difference??
I am using dataone 256 kbps broadband.
On test I found the follwing result
Why there is a huge difference between download and upload speed

Dunno exactly but i think it has got to do with latency or network card packet support...
Chk this for many reasons for low speeds :

Oh thats very normal. When they say 256 kbps connection, they mean downloads @ 256 kbps. Uploads are usually 1/5th of the download. So dont worry!

Nope, u cant possibly download at 256 kbps,
Tis divided by 2 > So 128 applicable...
Divide 128/2 for in / out > 64 in 64 out (max)
Seein the quality of cards and servers and wires , divide each by 2 and u will reach the real bandwidth...

Dont you ppl know?
We dont get more than 7-8kBps for upload in BSNL dataone. I have noticed that thing from the day, I got my connection. Because of this , I am not able to have a good ratio in some torrent sites.

No, many ISP's dont limit the upload BW. They give nearly 30kBps upload on a 256k line.

Oh yeah a little +/- from the original speed is ok! Well, im on sify 48 kbps, but it get around 80 kbps! And one time for around 1 hour, i got 800 kbps! Hehe. Depends on your ISP actually.

@rajat22
Well,the reason is simply bcoz BSNL DataOne is based on ADSL (Asymmetric DSL) where Downloads and Uploads take place at different speeds.
Find out more on ADSL at http://howstuffworks.com
Hope it helps
Adios

I have airtel adsl connection, but my upload and download are the same. It all depends on the isp ultimately.

QwertyManiac, do you think this is YIM? U got a cool avatar, now I think you will have a cool user badge also.This is the final warning, next time if I see you spamming, then a cool badge will find your way.
@whim_gen, also all ADSL ISP's dont limit the uploads.

let me clear the air. As whim_gem said that dataone runs on a Assymetric DSL connection the download/upload speeds vary and sicne we donwload more than we upload download speeds are much higher than upload speeds. So on a dataone conection we get 200-220 kbps d/l speeds when compared to 40-60kbps connection. I know people who get 60kBps connection on their MTNL line which also follows the ADSL principle but thats more of a SDSL connection,. Even airtel is more of a SDSL connection
