RoadRunner Download speed?


Recommended Posts

Holy cow look at this. I have never seen anything like this before. Let me know if this is normal and if I can expect this more. I just got RoadRunner so I am not to familiar with it.

Roadrunner doesn't normally have bandwidth caps to my knowledge, I used to get similar speeds when they were my provider.

it says shareze not roadrunner :s

Shareaza is an open-source client that supports multiple file-sharing networks including Gnutella and EDonkey2000.

No, its not, however, when I first got Road Runner, it took them about a week to set download caps in place. Chances are thats whats happening with you. Enjoy a week of uncapped uploads and downloads. But after that, it will be capped at around 350kilobytes/sec down, and 45kilobytes/sec up.

They never placed bandwidth caps on my account for some odd reason, and I had their service for nearly eight months before I moved to my new home. :huh:

Yeah, I max out about 358KB/s, not sure if my upload has changed since I haven't uploaded to anything that has a bandwith monitor in a while (mostly sending over IM).

In my area, Hudson Co, NJ, Road Runner is capped to about 350 KB/sec. So yea, you're still able to get a bit more bandwidth than that.

Well, as I've had RoadRunner since they started offering it in my area many years ago, I never saw speeds like that.. EmuZombie is right, it will be down to 350kb a sec down and ~45 up very soon.

I suppose so, still can't believe you never heard of Road Runner. They're one of the largest providers in North America and owned by Time Warner.
