SBC Boosts its DSL Upload Speed

SBC Communications announced a two-pronged plan to increase the upload speed for its SBC Yahoo! DSL subscribers at no extra charge. SBC Yahoo! DSL Express, offering download speeds of 384 kbps to 1.5 Mbps, will include upload speeds of up to 256Kbps, compared to 128 kbps previously. Later this year, the upload speeds will be increased to up to 384Kbps.



Customers subscribing to the flagship service, SBC Yahoo! DSL Pro, receive download speeds of 1.5 to 3.0 Mbps and upload rates of up to 416Kbps--an increase from up to 384Kbps which was previously offered. The second phase of increased speeds will provide SBC Yahoo! DSL Pro subscribers with upload rates of up to 512 Kbps. http://www.sbc.com
