Internet Plans in your country

^^i did it again and this time it was 2.80 mb/s. thats not too bad considering the max i can get is 3 mb/s

 

[Flipmo]

Pour moi.

 

[Casey]

My download speed just clocked in at 8.9 mb/s on that site, but I've hit 10 mb/s before when it's not peak usage time.

I've done this test before, but it's more than doubled when i'm off wireless.

Germany wins the thread.

Germany wins the thread.

Old but I had to post this just to win the thread
PS. The speed was limited by a 100mbps max of laptop's net controller/ethernet.

We have a 10gbps net at uni.

 

[Casey]

Uni's, corporations and such don't count.

When I worked at the BBC, they had speeds like that also.

 

[masta247]

I'll order a 100mbps (which is the fastest internet speed for casual users my cable company offers) just to win this.

It costs 50$ or so but fuck that

8 meg down/1meg up ADSL tho it actual clocks in at nearer 5 down.

Unlimited data and no restrictions on p2p or torrents etc. £10 a month I think (subsidised by TV)

 

[kastro]

Fuck awesome, speed like that is krazy,...mine came down to 6.48mb download and 0.74 upload...pretty shit ...its cool how they give u other stats...800mb movie takes 16min....35mb video clip 44sec....mp3 file 7 sec....got a rating of 2.2/5

 

[Kobe]

It's too crap in my part of the world to even talk about. Kenya just got linked to some under-sea fiber optic broadband cable but.................anyway, what I'm trying to say is that internet connections here for domestic use are crap.

^^you live in South Africa now?

 

[Flipmo]

That's what I was wondering lol

 

[Bobby Sands]

/\ BT?

man fuck that shit, get yourself Virgin Media. BT uses the old copper cables still for transferring data, you need the modern fibreoptic cables to get the real speeds.

I used to have BT Broadband but I switched last in April, had Virgin Media since then. It's a cheaper deal, the internet is faster and I get 50 cable channels with it as well.

Copper cables work fine for me.
