2048kbps/256kbps D/U.

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.

    • I think you need to adjust your style of approach. While some were affected by performance issues, and it's not a huge gap... you're acting as if Ryzen couldn't handle 11 at all. Performance issues are purely based on some facts in certain scenarios, while others are not. I see one link with a handful of people discussing the topic. I didn't join those topics or seek them out myself, as I didn't encounter noticeable drops in performance going from 10 to 11. It might also have to be because I don't have my nose stuck up the butt of single digit percentage points. I don't benchmark my PC every time something new comes out. Single percentage point differences in performance only ruffle the feathers of those that don't care about daily use. If you have a race car, do you compare that to your daily driver? Do you expect your Honda Accord to break the 9 second quarter mile like your 1000HP Pontiac Firebird? If you're so worried about FPS instead of enjoying your games... perhaps opening a curtain in your basement might provide a new perspective in life.
    • Currently updating my Win10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021 in a VM (QEMU/KVM) on Linux. but damn, updates take forever (makes me appreciate the lightness on Linux all the more). to give you a general idea... this update finished at 37 minutes into system uptime and I would estimate updates have been running roughly 20-30 minutes (some of this would be download time, but even subtracting that I would guess that 20-30min is close). granted, I only got two cores of my four core CPU (i5-3550) dedicated to the VM. but still, Linux wipes the floor with Windows in this regard.
    • It's disgusting that this exists and is being marketed by Neowin as a way to earn passive income. Support real writers and real arts. The world needs them more than ever. After at least 10 years, Neowin can GTFO my favorites bar.
    • It doesn't have to be "interesting" for a script/bot to just copy everything it finds and rehost it on another site. I hope you remember your post when AGI replaces not only your job and your career, but you entirely in the workforce...
