What's your connection speed?

[ImMrPete]

Please post your connection speed as I’m trying to compare my crappy rr connection with other people in Wisconsin. I think I may have the worst connection in all of Milwaukee.

I think I win. I can't even load the page.

I have 10mbps at home and 100 at work. Pretty lame.

Meh.

You all can go to hell with your fast connections!! mine is outrageously slow for the 5 of us, especially seeing as we're all nerds and someone is constantly downloading something.

Mine is definitely not the fastest from the Fox Valley.

But I'll take it. Anyone have AT&T's DSL to test out? I'd be curious on what they get for the price compared to my "slightly" expensive RR.

Mine is 4884 kpbs download and 366kbps upload.

broke out the wire to test it......




nice increase on the down!

Pete - your d/l speed is about right for a DSL, and u/l is quite good. The reason for the seeming slowness is actually your latency. Are you actually on cable? I've heard they can get some ugly latency numbers. If so, that is a pretty low U/L.



My numbers are ok - supposed to have a 3mbit connection, and it looks like that's what I've got!

Clear your cache, repeat. Odds are it already had the file stored in memory.

[chewy-bacca]

the numbers are not the same, what makes you say that? A wired connection should be faster, and it is.

Right. I understand that. The file that it downloaded to test this is most likely saved in your virtual memory, which means all there is going to be is seek time to find it and access it, rather than download, find it, access it.

well, Im not running the wire again. the numbers line up with what I would get any other time so stop hatin on my speed!

I think the reason my connection has issues is that I have the cable line spliced, think I'm runing too many off one line.
