Do you think M$ is taking people with highest connection for XBL??

come on people give in your connections!!

Goooo Cable

well uh, i have cable but my caps are insane
10mbit/1.5mbit


and i pulled these speeds before

bah lucky you. mines capped at 250k/s down 50k/s up

damn, you guys are lucky. cable is nowhere near that fast in my area. i've got dsl (1.5mbit (180kB/s) down, about 30kB/sec up). I sure do miss my line in college! (10mbit each way)

170K/down, 30K/up.

what do u mean by LAN? i have cable but on LAN

I have a cable modem capped at 2mbit/368kbit

I think they mean like businesses, edu, or other shared connections serviced by a large bandwidth pipeline.

max : 3.6meg d/l 131kb u/l

actual : 450kb d/l 15kb u/l

im capped like crazy on my u/l

looks like you're not really capped at all pCeSlAyEr...

from what you said, i'll assume your max d/l is 3.6mbit/s and your max u/l is 131kbit/s.
I'll also assume that when you're watching your d/l or u/l speed, it's being measured in bytes, not bits (as it almost always is).
1 byte (upper-case "B") = 8 bits (lower-case "b")
So, your max d/l in terms of bytes should be one eighth of your max download in bits. 3.6/8 = .45 - That's .45mbyte/s, which is roughly 450 kB/s (which is what you get, right?)
You max u/l should adhere to the same principles, so 131/8 = 16.375 - That's 16.375kB/s upload (about what you measured).

That's how ISPs fool you...they always speak in terms of bits, but most users are accustomed to bytes. So it may sound like you have a fast connection when you're paying for it, but it's only about an eighth of what you think it's gonna be.

I know that.... but im capped on my u/l..... I have friends who have uncapped themselves and get 250 -400kbps on there u/l... bastards... the lines around here have speeds up to about 8mb u/l d/l....

so now u can see why im saying im capped

well fuck me. i see what you're saying. sucks that you're capped so much!

I d/l around 700 kBs and upload around 160 kBs... that's an average on a good day... I'm on cable, though, and it jumps around like crazy...

I blaze on downloads with Download Accelerator Plus... in fact, I think it goes too fast... it'll jump to about 1 Meg per second and then just seem to die... and I get nothing... anyone had this happen? It's almost like when a bunch of cars on the freeway are all going along at 60 MPH, then they have to merge to one lane... screeching to a stop.

Bah, your making me jeleaous. I'd LOVE an uncapped connection, would be sweet
There actually is a way to raise your caps, but it deals with your isp's DHCP server, and I dont really wanna screw around with that, if they find out i dont wanna have to get DSL (which is slower around here)

What would be nice is if i had a dedicated T1+, buy some ip's, run a server, host shells, make money with that, pay off the T1 and you can download stuff yourself it would practically pay for itself if there were enough custumers

I get access to a s company network that benchmarks faster than a T3 on my nights and weekend security shifts. I love doing 12-hour graveyard shifts (It's work. No I don't!)

*BuMp*

ok, im bored

you ddint even post your connection....

cable for me, 6mbit down, 1mbit up

768kbps/128kbps

ok, its verizon dsl. 3mb down, 1.5 up. but for some reason i always get host in halo, even when playing with my friends that have cable. speed test clock me around 2.7 down and like 1.3 up. or something like that

did you guys see the date that i bumped it from? like 4 years ago...

You get host all the time cause 1.5MB up is insane compared to what most subscribers cap upload off at!!

I get 3MB down, 300k up with Cableone for 45 bucks a month!


old ass thread!

Yea good job

Connection Speed:
• Incoming:
3008 kbps
• Outgoing:
512 kbps

umm... to the guy bragging about it... bumping old topics is lame. Although, this is actually a good topic, regardless of the age, so I'll post.

wow... upload speed sucks... 707kilobytes/second download speed, but 30kilobytes/second upload speed. meh.

Used to be on 24mbit down and 1mbit up (adsl2+)

Now i am on 8mbit down and 1mbit up (Cabel, but with the prospect of getting 100mbit in the near future)

And yes, this is a damn old post

1mb down, 256kb up

Getting RADSL at the end of the month, so I'll be getting between 2mb - 8mb down and 448kb up.

wow, i didnt know 1.5 up was good. i guess it is, all you guys are getting like 5+ down and less than 1 down.
i guess im lucky.
plus the little phone terminal shed thing is only like a mile up the road, that might be helping my speed

my speeds
5.6mb / 345kb
down/up

i get host usually 2/5 times

@^#$*%^ sbc and there crappy speeds. 1.2 down, 350 up

Their

Damn, I hate when people can't figure out which "there" to use.

mines not bad 5.97 d/l but only 0.38 Mbps (46 kB/s) u/l and idk about max and shit i just tested on testmy.net

oh really modder?

ok, i was going some where, when i got their, all the people were like, look, over they're, their all running from theyre. i was like wtf. so i go over their, and there all like wtf? so i left and i never went back to they're


wow, that is a shitty sentence. o well. i got my point across. (sentence was completely made up, off the top of my head)

5mb/256kb

:shakes head:

2.3mb / 284kb
it should be
4.0mb/384kb

but i have stupid 802.11b wireless card

lol, you like those sentences?
trust me, i do know proper english, i just like joking with people.


man, nice qoute in your sig, you should atleast say who said it.

eDiT - Noticed Modder's sig...

That won't make a difference with your internet connection. It has a maximum of 22Mbps, versus your maximum download of 4Mbps.

All i know is, my computer connected directeclty through the router gets 4mb, while my computer 2 stories up gets half that through my wireless connection.

lower signal = lower throughput with wireless, thast why i wired my entire home network

mine isnt bad i could use a faster one though

dslreports.com speed test result on 2006-06-18 15:11:49 EST:
7496 / 344
Your download speed : 7496 kbps or 937 KB/sec.
That is 39% better than an average user on comcast.net

Your upload speed : 344 kbps or 43 KB/sec.
That is 14.2% worse than an average user on comcast.net

I win you.


20mbit/1mbit(i dont care about upload speed)

But I'm capped on 8mbit.

currently 8mbit down and 1mbit up, getting 100mbit down and 10mbit up within a few months.. it goes wroooooooooooom!!!

/pablot

Down 512 Up 128

NVM

Switched from wired to wireless on my PC and these are the results.

9 down/ 1 up, and I pretty much have that all the time, its not dedicated but I always get 9 and 1

Just curious, anyway to tweak things a little bit WITHOUT getting in trouble with the ISP?

yes you can tweak your registry oh so slightly. it helped me a bit. if anything it just keep ,e at my higher speeds more often.

On some crazy days (usually late at night) I have found myself hit a 17.2 mbit/s mark. My usual d/l speed on limewire with alot of downloads and hosts can easily hit around 1MB/s. My u/l usually stays at 345kB/s.

microtorrent rapes my bandwidth though, even when I'm not seeding or downloading at a high rate.

I tested my schools connection at http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/ and got


which equals 1085.5/486.375 KBps

At home i can only get dial up or super expensive satalite, so i went with dial-up an the speeds are kinda wierd

i get around 5.5 KBps download and 12 KBps upload?

in the dorms I had 3mb down 3mb up but then they started a bandwidth tier that the more you downloaded the slower speeds you got, so first step was 300mb in a 24 hr period got you 3mb down 1.5 up and few more steps then if you did more than 8gb in a 7day period you would be at a 56k level for a day.

But I moved out this year and have one choice and its some crappy 1.5mb down and 512kb up o well
