The speed offered by the different adsl providers does vary. However, in addition to the speed of your adsl provider a number of other factors can effect your internet speed. We detail a number of these factors below. To test your current internet speed try one of these two adsl speed test tools. The first tool will provide the most accurate results as it is specifically suited to Spanish adsl connections. The speed test tool can be found at the Velocidad Internet website. If you do not speek Spanish then try this speed test tool which is provided in English.
If you find that your internet connection speed is slow then there are a number of reasons that could be to blame. The distance from the phone line exchange will affect most types of adsl connection. In addition the contention ratio will affect the speed of your connection. The contention ratio is the number of individual connections that share the adsl connection. If you had a contention ratio of 1:100 it would mean that when you were online you would be sharing your connection with 99 other people.
In addition to the above factors which are beyond your control and which slow down your internet connection there are also factors which are within your control.
