Internet Speeds

[StimpE]

Just curious as to the speed of everyone else's internet. I used Speedtest.net - The Global Broadband Speed Test

Here is my results on a 3Mb rated connection.

 

[Sniper]

1mb connection


I dont know what the distance thing is all about. It cant be my distance from london, especially when sniper lives not far from me!

I got different results heh. (Used pcpitstop.com also) But I guess its up to 7.5 Mbps.

Its my office connection.... I dont know what their actual speed....

 

[DaRuSsIaMaN]

wow...

 

[StimpE]

holy shit karan...those are some good speeds but the latency is a bit high?
Anyways I upgraded from my 3mb connection to the 5mb DSL package, Here's the difference in speeds:

I'm at Uni.

Although usually the down speed is incredibly jumpy and varies from about 200KB/s to 30KB/s (like 1.8Mb/s to about 256Kb/s)

Verizon FiOS

I doubt that this is correct because this test isnt working on this computer again and it wasnt working before as well. I dont know how it worked at that time.

Anyways I upgraded from my 3mb connection to the 5mb DSL package, Here's the difference in speeds:

how iz it possible? Your connection speed is 5Mb and your download speed is 6640kb, which is more than 6Mb?? :confused:..... same as your fist post.

@ B, you've got nice upload speed as compared to your download :good:

 

[StimpE]

It's rated at 5mb. How I get 6 iunno.

 

[DaRuSsIaMaN]

ISP's occasionally give u higher speed than their own ratings ... nothing to complain about :)

Big B: Verizon FiOS
