I got much better from the Dublin server than the UK one.

Paying for 2mbit down / 256k up so not too shabby.

Can't wait till ADSL2+ finally gets to our area; delay after delay :( The predicted speed for our distance is around 17mb down and 1.3mb up <3.

What a difference a day makes. I was having unbelievably bad speeds yesterday, but look at it now, nearly 7meg down. I can't see it lasting though.

For 350mi away my speeds are pretty good. Back in December I was getting about 6.5mbps but that was when there was still a Toronto server and that was only about 50mi away.

I have the same service that Inhert has with Rogers TV/Internet/Phone for $115CAD a month.

Fastest download speed! But look at my shit upstream. I'm hoping FiOS comes to my town soon so I can get 2000kb/s upstream and oh 15000kb/s downstream. Comcast gives me ultrafast downloads but easily the worst down/upstream ratio of any ISP I've seen to date. Even 1:10 would work nice, but no I get some 1:55 ratio here.

Funny thing I live only several miles away from Portland yet I get pings of over 100 while San Jose gives me pings of under 50 :twitch:

Unfortunately for me, this area is run by Comcast, and so Verizon's FiOS is out of the question. Bye bye 25mb down. :(

Vive Auckland.

Capo, all I can say is simply WoW. Who are you with and how much is service?

It's $349.99/month and boy is it worth it!

Definitely capped by the university, unfortunately. I'm closer to the New York server, but my latency is actually higher there (~90), my download is a little faster (~8000), and my upload is slower (~1800).

AHAHAHAHAHA. Yeah this is why I'm saying Gears would be pointless in chat.

I mean if I had shitty internet but lived near you it'd be totally fine. Why do distances have to be a problem. :(

Of course, this is from wireless on-campus... If only my server could get this.

This is a shared university connection, so it can go quite a bit faster or slower depending on how many users there are, the distance to the server, the phase of the moon, etc. Still, 6MBPS isn't bad at all.

My God, looking at your speedtests only solidifies what I've known all along: Verizon fucking sucks The closest people to my download rate were still a good 500 mbps ahead. How much is that FIOS stuff anyways? Though Capo's got it bad, damn.

lol? Paying 45€ including phone flat

oh, that upload cap sucks as far as private torrent sites are concerned, btw

You try setting your test server to Auckland. :mad:

Know what? I'm going to try just that.

Edit:http://www.speedtest.net/result/86816324.png

Damn, you seriously need to talk to someone Capo. I way off in NYC and still got higher rates than you. Not to mention I'm now thinking of switching to Road Runner, since this is definitely some bullshit on Verizon's part.

Good! =D

...I just looked at Mush's rates, and don't feel as bad. =D But seriously, this is nothing less than highway robbery especially when RR's offering 5,000 kbps down for 4-5 bucks more than what I'm paying now.

On a 3meg DSL connection for $29 with a local ISP. This is over a wireless PCI card as well. Not too shabby for the price methinks.

It's pretty good, I'm not complaining (and it's only 10 Ls or 10 Pounds). It's fast enough for everything that I need, I don't want any faster connection.

Why is your upload higher than your download?

Alright here's my normal one:

And here's another go at Auckland:

http://www.speedtest.net/result/86839112.png

Don't know why it's so much better now.

http://www.speedtest.net/result/87142049.png
LOL

Somedays are better than others...

29 euros / month which includes internet + phone (free in France and in many countries) + TV (something like 70 French channels and 500 random foreign ones)

I like how I'm paying more than that for way less than that. I don't even have TV.

I learned my lesson though, the next time I have to choose a university, I'm making my choice based on the local telecom companies, not on quality or reputation or anything like that.
