Oh well, I'm happy with my Telenet-everything ^^

Thanks for this info

but if it makes me happy, that's another thing :angry:

:rofl:

who on earth is first on top? and how wtf do you get 0 ping?

he probably owns a server :cool:

Trying to ping you own server gives 0 ping :laugh:

yea, i was thinking the same thing before

[AJerman]

Haha, I got happy panda because I tested in China then tested back at my local server again.

When i'm at school, I'll do this test again: 150MBit down and 50Mbit up :D

Naah, I keep it fair and fun :)

Might as well, I did my test at work, haha.

Edit: Tested again at home:

Yipee for Road Runner's BS Power Boost that makes them look better on speed tests. Too bad the upload still looks like ****.

[Ambroos]

Yeah, his "ISP" is Softlayer Technologies, so he probably works there, but he tested with the Softlayer Technologies server too. So he basically did his speedtest over an internal network :p I consider that cheating :D

[x-scratch]

should be only home connections not work or schools bunch of cheaters

i will post mine when i get my fios back up stupid tree branch broke the line

that was never in the rules (Y)

[AJerman]

We're tech nerds, we should show what we have access to, be it at home, school, or work. You can run a test for each location if you want.

[JTaylor69]

Go find somewhere that has a 1Gbps connection and you're all sorted.

There is one rule; test your speed.

:p

:p

is it even theoretically possible to have a 1Gb/s connection?

[Singh400]

DaveLegg you gay, stop cheating :rofl: http://www.softlayer.com/ provides dedi servers and etc.

Yup, South Korea are doing 1Gbps to home connections. I think some parts of Sweden and Japan are already there.

Weak internet =(

[JTaylor69]

Weak internet =(

It's pretty decent compared to some of the ADSL ISPs over here in the UK!

I concur. The rules state test your internet speed, not your LAN speed :)

[DaveLegg Developer]

Actually, my server is in Dallas, and I tested against a server in Fort Worth. I actually got better speed that way, than against a server at a different DC in Dallas, go figure. The server has a 1gbps connection, but obviously had traffic using it at the time (websites I host etc). Softlayer offer up to 10gbps connections to each server though. It's sometimes quite tempting :p but realistically, nothing on the other end would be able to keep up.

[JTaylor69]

Looks like Dave has PWNed most of us!

[Dinggus]

I've never hit over 1.5mb/s on downloads!

[Harlem39s Finest]

download speed is pretty awesome compared to what i've had in last 5 years (2mbs max, 30GB capped, and heavily throttled.) upload is low but i don't really care much about it.

[Reacon]

Contributed my 1.27 meg connection.... lol.

[DrJohnSmitherson]

#5 W00T! idk what I SHOULD be gettin tho :/

[DrJohnSmitherson]

BUMP! #1 MOFOS

[Biohead]

Your ping isn't :p

[threesixtyflip]

So much for paying for TalkTalks "20MB"

AAARRGGGHHHHH!!!!

[Roger H. Veteran]

Should be 30/5Mbps - Can't complain!

Thanks FCC/SamsKnows for shaming Cablevision into overprovisioning. :D

[jnelsoninjax]

Not sure exactly what I am paying for, but this is not bad!
