6785077276 Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 1) They have a faster connection speed than you; 2) Your cousin is lying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shthead Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Over here in Australia (shouldn't be different to over there), 512kbps has a max download speed of approx 57kb/s. You cannot get 80kb/s with it. You may be getting slower speeds due to line quality issues. I would take this up with the provider of your phone line.

Intersect Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 I want to know what download speeds ishould be gettin with 512kbps internet with blueyonder, atthe moment i getaroun 40 kbps on average whereas my cousin (on same connection with same company) gets arouns 80 kbps, anyone possibly know why this happens 586594696[/snapback] if you are only getting 40kbps then contact blueyonder tech support. there might be lots of noise on the cable. also i think your cousin is telling you BS about the 80kbps if he realy is on the 512 speed like you.

Qasim Posted September 29, 2005 Author Share Posted September 29, 2005 They have the same speed connection and same modem and same p2p app to download files, sometimes when using opera i get downloads of around 80kbps but for a short while only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renshaw Posted September 29, 2005 Share Posted September 29, 2005 Yes you should get more then that Theses speeds are saying you have a perfect connection and pretty much live on top of the isp :p 512 - max speed 64kbps - would say most will get 58Kbps 1024 - max speed 125kbps - would say most will get 117kbps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
