Don't know why I retested, but tee hee.

It's faster.

busterb · 03-22-2008, 03:07 PM

Here ya go.

spudcon · 03-23-2008, 07:35 PM

Time warner still shows me at 250kbs. mut be their host.

glatt · 03-24-2008, 08:40 AM

I'm at work now, and it's 14 times faster than my home DSL connection.

Now it's lunch time, and presumably, many of my cow orkers are surfing.

I'm going for 1091 and 208. Any other takers?

oooh, so close!

Elspode · 03-24-2008, 08:01 PM

I assume everyone is testing using the recommended server, as opposed to something a distance away from their location?

SteveDallas · 03-24-2008, 09:23 PM

Recommended server (New York in my case)

(note: This is actually damned close to the advertised speed I'm signed up for, 3.0/768. In fact it's proabbly as close as you'll get in the real world.)

The farthest away I could get--Vancouver:

Speaking of bandwidth, do any of you work for a provider? I'm in the market for some a few T1 lines at work.

Pie · 03-24-2008, 11:31 PM

On UMinn campus -- gotta say that .edu bandwidth rocks!

monster · 03-25-2008, 12:21 AM

Bigger is only better if you know what to do with it...

monster · 03-25-2008, 12:23 AM

Next guess for Drax' speed.....

1089 and 208.

Any other players?
