What is your Internet Connection?
 

Nobody's made this yet it seems =0

I am on an ADSL 1Mbit connection.

120kb/s download, 33kb/s upload theoretically, though the download speed nowadays on it usually is closer to 100, and the upload more liek 30.

I guess that's pretty slow nowadays, but in august ADSL2+ is coming to our area, which means a maximum of 24Mbit / 1.3Mbit :edgartpg:

I'm on a 5Mb down, 384Kb up connection. Time Warner Cable, my ISP, keeps saying that, "[we'll] roll out 15Mb down, 2Mb up services in the near future," but they've been doing that for about five years now. Freakin' weasels.

I have ADSL 1Mbit connection.

Download speed is 112 Kbps and upload 30 Kbps

Those other numbers have to be kilobytes per second, especially if you have a 1 megabit connection.

I have Charter cable. 3 meg down, 256k up. It sucks and makes me sad, the upload especially.

I cannot wait until 30 meg down and 5+ up become commonplace. Once high def television becomes the standard.

i have 8mbit/1mbit DSL connection here in france for 30€/month, no down/up limits

i dl up to 730kb/s and upload a 104kb/s

At home, I have 1.5 mbit downstream/896 kbit upstream Qwest DSL. It's not a bad deal even if the maximum bandwidth is a bit low, because there aren't any transfer caps or restrictions on the service and it's ultra-reliable. Cable internet is cheaper here, but Mediacom is a horrible company with no customer support and lousy reliability...I'll stick with DSL, thank you very much. The best thing is that Qwest is supposedly rolling out VDSL and HDTV services before too long. ^^

Right now, I'm stuck using the University of Iowa's dorm line. It's a T3, and I've managed to download files at over one megabyte per second, but it's split up among a couple thousand people in my specific dorm building, so it can be a bit slow at times. The worst part is that the university monitors traffic INCREDIBLY tightly. They don't actually block Torrents or P2P services, but heaven help you should you actually use them.

I don't know the official specs, but we pay €45,-/month, cable, and I can download with a max of 1 mb/s (though 500 kb/s is more common) and upload with a max of 110 kb/s. No restrictions whatsoever.

I have a 2.5mb ADSL connection, with a limit of 10 gb a month. It's depressing since the upload is a maximum of 16kbps, and the upload also counts towards the 10 gb per month.

It's trash.

My ISP has a 2GB a month limit on the package I use. I don't exactly follow it. The bulk of this is internet traffic, there's hardly any LAN activity on the LAN I'm on.

There hasn't been a word from them yet (been connected for over a year)

10 Megabit Download and 1 Megabit Upload, Downloading at 1 Megabyte+ a second is great

If it gets any faster im gonna have to upgrade my router as it only as a 10Mbsp WAN port on it :(

I have 1.5 Mbit/~70Kbyte connection. I know it's peanuts compared to you're 234897 Gigabytes a second, but it's better than what I used to have.. dialup.

All the inconsitancies of measurement in this thread are driving me insane. Don't forget that MB/s is different than Mb/s.

I have Comcast, the 6000kbps downstream is very nice, but I'd like something faster than 384kbps upstream (about 48KBps), not nearly enough to run a FTP server.

I've got an ADSL 1984 Kilobits down / 512 Kilobits up connection. It was suppose to be 2.5Mbits down / 1Mbit up but thanks to distance issues the signal was too unstable and SBC had to drop my connection down to what is now.

It kind of sucks because I cant get cable either. The signal is too weak in my house and there's too many appliances on one line. If I had it my way we would have 1 or 2 televisions. But the people in this house must have thier own in every damn room.

But it's better than nothing.

Can't your cable company run another coax line to your house to increase the signal? This is what had to be done for where I'm living now. (Or, is the signal degraded too much "at the curb"?)

512kps Cable. I manage to download at 60kb/s at full and my weak upload is 10kb/s

I'm not complaining :P

We're getting ready to get the fastest in our area! 512/256bit (64/32byte) for $50 a month!

6Mbps/1Mbps Comcast. Yes I know the numbers are higher than they should be, but I'm not about to go telling them that haha

...and I thought that my service was a rip-off for $45 a month.
This is DSL, I imagine?

Honestly, most ISPs suck immensely by way of crappy service.

I'm getting some form of ADSL or another. My ISP used to suck a few years ago, but since then they've actually removed all monthly download caps and improved quite a bit in general, so no complaint.

As for the speed, I usually can get 300KB/s down, and a 65KB/s up. Frankly, I could probably bring the upload higher, I cap it myself when using P2P. Bittorrent, especially, has a tendency to try to upload way too much when uncapped and literally chokes the connection to death by preventing TCP ACK packets from going through. Or at least it used to, I haven't tried running it without cap for quite some time.

Actually, it is not really wired DSL but just wireless broadband. I (and other business peoples) convinced them they need to offer services here. We tried to petition SBC for wired DSL, but they didn't come through even though we had 107 sigs and our town population is 628!

sprint DSL 5 mbps
can get up to 700 kb/s sometimes

i limit my upload to 50 kb/s but it gets up to about 70 kb/s

Covad 3Mbit down / 384 up

The speed is nice, but the best part is that we've had no down time since we've had it, which has been about a year.

That's what I have at home. And at my apartment I share the university connection. Upload speeds are nice (~100+kB/s) when shit's not getting packet-shaped but it's usually shit. Download speeds are pretty shitty. It all sucks. Ever.

14.4 baby!

2MB up/down SBC Yahoo or something real close...
