(hmmm. Upload has been increased lately. nice. )

 

[Amaroque]

Just wondering what ppl have around the world.

I've seen 10x my speed too (which is crazy)!

 

[Hurricane Andrew]

Just for the record, I hate you all...

Oh well, at least it's not dial-up.

 

[RaySun2Be]

I just got faster cable at the apt.

I'll do another test later, I did this one through the VPN at work.

 

[JonB]

Been slower as the weather gets hotter. I think the underground cable connections are getting worse.

this morning is much better. Perhaps my neighborhood has been oversubscribed on cable.

Barf: what the hell was that?

This is the speed of my connection at the apt by itself:

And this is what the www.dslreports.com speed test showed:

The first one was to a server in Chicago, the DSLREPORTS one was to a server in California.

The DSLReports one seems closer to what I signed up for, 6 meg down, 1.5 meg up.

Much better than the 512K down, 256k up I had in Columbus.

Hows this for fast? :Q

 

[Assimilator1]

Err ,that's a tech news website ,don't see anything about BB speeds.

My speed

That matches up well with its rated speed of 4Mbps/400Kbps.
Though that doesn't count when Virgin throttle your speed after d/ling xxGB

How the heck did you manage a faster upload than download speed?

My guess is SDSL with concurrent download activity...

[RaySun2Be]

This is at work without going through the VPN.

We are supposed to be upgrading (nearly doubling) the Internet connection speed tonight, so I'll try the test again tomorrow.

This is after the line speed update:

Hey, good site. At least I know I am getting what I am paying for.

Here's mine ADSL

Next question: how much does your connection cost you?

Good question.

I'm paying $110 a month for phone, net, and digital cable.

Plus ~$35 in taxes every month. :frown:

 

[The Borg]

ADSL: 512k / 256k

Costs: R600 ($85) for a 3GB capped line. Over 3 GB, 10c (1.4c) per Meg.

 

[Allio]

I pay NZ $50 for a fullspeed ADSL connection (about 4500/700 on my line), then $1 per gig transferred. Expensive.

 

[Smoke]

5411/542

CableOne$30

 

[RaySun2Be]

I'm supposed to be paying $33 for basic digital cable, and $20 for a 6meg connection for a year through Comcast. I'll see when the first bill comes in.

LOL

I have something most do not, it's called EOPL (Ethernet Over Power Lines). It's a 3MB up/down service. My upload always rocks, great for FTP!
