Not bad for being in the sticks; it is the fastest available.

I'd like to see somebody with fiber post their results.

Alltel DSL in the country (stix).

Interesting I tested on 10/31 with 8500 and 12600 DL, today under 2400 DL ??

Justin, I have ComCr*P, and HAD severe dropouts, usually at weather changes. Like as the morning warm up occcured. They (over god knows how many visits) replaced connectors. Finally found the one at the pole was bad. Been near bullet proof since.

I have Verizon Fios (Fiber) but I'm on the road at the moment. It"s rated at 50 down and 5 up. I'll post when I return.

You guys are welcome for the cool speedtest link. :)

Rumor has it, that they are working on 100 down - don't know how soon they'll offer it.

1483 download 1429 upload, Dallas server.

Its probably where I live. I am pretty close to NY, I am sure the cables are up to date. Now I just need to buy a new computer to take full advantage. I'm thinking about going Mac!

I remember in the pre-browser days login into a chicago university unix as guest using Hytelnet and watching a jpeg display literaly scanline by scanline (porn of course, the only place to get porn in them days was from a university archives :), and you had to know what you where doing). I also remember online chatting with "redsonja" and "shadow", two girls at the universities online study and after finaly convincing them that I was not in fact sitting at a terminal in their lab all of us being blown away that this was possible. Times change.

This is funny...an old thread resurrected one day after I get the station's WAN upgraded from 16/2 to 50/5.

I've been using the "speakeasy" test for a few years now...gives you a "real world" feeling for what to expect...

D = 39.56 Mbs.
U = 03.98 Mbs.

Now, I'll test it later today once everyone gets out of the building... :rolleyes:

This is on a "CharterBiz" copper-wire service.

10 dl, 14.4mbps upload on FiOS. I'm in the middle of streaming a webinar through a VPN though so a huge amount of bandwidth is taken up by that. Not sure what the resurrection post is on about...satellite is a completely different connection than any cable.

That's resurrection... ;)

Post #40 was today, thus resurrecting the thread. Probably found it by search engine

Well, it seems the best city for me to download porn from will be Dallas.:rolleyes:

Washington, D.C. is the slowest, probably due to all the Senators and Congresspeople hogging all the good sites.:D
