    No. Think I misunderstood what you were saying at first. Just meant the fact that you only get 2.7mb on a 3mb line doesn't mean anything, 2.7mb is the max speed for a 3mb line when you include dsl overhead. Don't know about your att and snr

    Think all of these ridiculous numbers says more about the unreliability of the speedtests than the quality of the isp's.
