CONCLUSION
*Actual speeds will vary, and are often less than the maximum possible. Upload and download speeds are
affected by several factors including, but not limited to: network traffic and services offered by your cable
operator or broadband service provider, computer equipment, type of server, number of connections to server,
and availability of Internet router(s).
