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.

    • "While users may say they do not want their data used for personalized ads, Meta believes that without personalization, user experience declines with an almost 800% rise in ads being marked as “irrelevant” or “repetitive”. The ads might be more irrelevant, but it's not like people crave ads in the first place. My user experience with ads isn't better with personalization, because I don't want them there to begin with. So I might as well have non-personalized ads if I am gonna have ads, because then I at least get tracked less, and that makes it a better user experience for me.
    • The fact that they didn't offer a non-personalized ad-supported option, when they were mandated by law, was the final nail in the coffin in my case.
