Am I the only one with this connection?

I max out at about 231kbps Down and 30kpbs Up. WOW!!

Nope I have

--> adsl show rate
Data Path : Fast
  Downstream Bit Rate : 2272 Kbps
  Upstream   Bit Rate : 288 Kbps

:cool:

Maxed out at 340kbs Down and around 38kbps UP.

No Caps either.

I kindof skipped the 1MB and went straight to 2mb. Will be moving to 8MB this summer.

What's the use for a 10Gbit connection when you can't even write data that fast.

10Gbits is about 1Gbyte a second, don't know any disks which write that fast, maybe UCL uses SCSI hard disks.

The best connection which is worth getting is a 1.5Gbit, this speed will allow the data to be written as it is downloaded per second.

4meg/256kbit here, good ole Telewest :)

UCL's internet connection (University College of London) is 10Gbits/sec  :woot:  :woot:

yup telewest if by far the best ISP here in uk, well i know defo for midlands lol, i have got 1mb, topped it out at 131k/s, soon to get 2mb in summer hopefully though. :D

4000/384 through comcast high speed (yea, thats a joke) internet. Thats only if my modem works.

I love comcast. Been with them since 1996 (when they were @home) and they still refuse to replace my dying 5 year old modem.

When i move up to william paterson university they have a 4000/1000 connection when it feels like its 100/100. Damn college networks.

I'm on 10mbit university network atm...so in theory I can get up to 1.25MB/s download, but it rarely goes over 1MB/s when downloading large files on fast servers (legally :p )

edit: With a 500MB limit on traffic per day (upload + download)...between the hours of 8am to 8am. Weird times really.

    • No, it doesn't, but I'm sure you don't just mean compile when you say compile.
    • Wine is a translation layer, not an emulator. And there are many cases where performance is worse or BETTER under Proton, it really depends on the game in question.
