After all, you may not even be using your full potential as it is! ;)

This Connection is just as important here. If you need to say download a 400 MEG File it's going to take longer then a 20 MEG File.

Also Upload or sent items are generally speaking slower to go than downloads or incoming items.

What is wanted here to Speed this up?

Or cut down on unnecessary Internet Traffic are the two easiest ways to improve here.

It's all basically about Bandwidth and how it is being used. The more you put through it the slower it appears to become on individual workstations but the reality is that it's still as fast but instead of only servicing 1 Station 200 are sucking the Data down the Line and all only getting a fraction of what is available.

If you can stop unnecessary Traffic on the Network and that means the Internet Line not the internal Network here the existing access will appear faster. Of course there will be no real change in speed just that only a few instead of many are requesting data fro the Optic Fiber Line.

But having said that it's not unusual for 20 MBS Cable connections in domestic residences here so a 2 MBS Optical Fiber Line is really slow.

Different districts of the Capital are switching in as I type, so I'd contact your current service provider and inquire what they are offering as an upgrade.

It wouldn't do any harm to also shop around. You'll find ISP's falling over each other to grab your custom. :)
