I was just curious as to what type of connections everyone uses. I think that the majority have broadband connections, but I am not sure. I know most of the 56 kers, but I am not sure who has cable and who has DSL. Also, if you would, let me know if you like what you are using. As everyone knows, I HATE 56 K, but it is my only option... well, I guess I could move out of the boonies... Actually, the Adelphia cable folks have been running lines around here, and I am hoping for a cable connection. |

I have cable....adelphia. They are pretty decent....but the upload speed is kinda low...I get about 132kb up....ugh. At least compared to Cox, thinks they get 250+...My friend has them in phoenix...wish I had that. I couldn't stand going back to 56k....ugh... I hear dsl and satellite are good, but up speeds are about the same or a little better than 56k.... to check your speed goto: http://bandwidthplace.com/speedtest/ |

Here are my Results: 1.4 megabits per second Your raw speed was 1447054.01 bits per second which is the same as: Communications: 1.4 megabits per second How communication devices are rated. Kilo means 1,000 and mega means 1,000,000. Examples include 56k modem and 10Mbit Ethernet Storage: 176.6 kilobytes per second The way data is measured on your hard drive and how file sharing and FTP programs measure transfer speeds. Kilo is 1,024 and mega is 1,048,576. 1MB file download: 5.8 seconds The time it would take you to download a 1 megabyte file at this speed. Rating: Compared to all connection types worldwide, yours is fantastic UPLOAD TEST: Form Based Upstream Test: 183.3 kilobits per second Your raw speed was 183348.25 bits per second which is the same as: Communications: 183.3 kilobits per second How communication devices are rated.

The policy on servers when I got it was that they were expressly forbidden. I don't know what they are now. I can't imagine they would still be against the rules. Here is a copy of the results I got running the test: Downstream test results were as follows: Details Your raw speed was 1767532.1 bits per second which is the same as: Communications 1.8 megabits per second How communication devices are rated.

Ok i did mine just like my vid card thought i would post it to cheer the gang up well except those on dail up think it's still better then theres maybe, its cable by the way Details Download test Your raw speed was 141362.24 bits per second which is the same as: Communications 141.4 kilobits per second How communication devices are rated.

Rating Compared to all connection types worldwide, yours is below average not bad really as i am on a 150kb connection and i did run this test with the forum on an open page and aim running Upload test Details Your raw speed was 32559.62 bits per second which is the same as: Communications 32.6 kilobits per second How communication devices are rated. Kilo means 1,000 and mega means 1,000,000.

P.S they dont bother about you running a server yea i know at this speed it doesnt matter but you can get 600kb and 1mb connection and on the 1mb i think a server would be ok am going to get 600 after christmas will let you know then about servers running on that speed |

My results... 40 kilobits per second Your raw speed was 40030.3 bits per second which is the same as: Communications 40 kilobits per second How communication devices are rated. Kilo means 1,000 and mega means 1,000,000.

Rating Compared to all connection types worldwide, yours is poor And this is on a morning when I connected at 45.3... I never get a connection that good. Most times I connect at 38 to 40 Kbps. I guess I should not complain... Considering the phone lines around here were put up in the jurassic era. |
