download - downloading data from the net to your computer upload - ´ uploading´ data to the net Downloading about 32 Mbit / s is decent, about 1.5 Mbit / s upload is also acceptable. Just - it's an unusual disparity (about 20: 1), usually the ratio is about 10: 1 to 2: 1 ... What's your connection? And how did you test it (and against what server) - the test results are affected by several factors that you are not able to test (basically - even in a one-time test, or even estimate) best when you measure it "a few times" in another time of day. :O
