Speedtest

Woah, that's quick.

I'm home for Easter now:



I'd almost forgotten what a buffering icon looked like :lol:

 

[Triple Helix]

Your download speed is insane!

Just like Geoff's.

Mine isn't too bad:

It's good and Cable lines up here are faster than the Bell company at this time.



And this for just a test:

 

[Tekno Venus]

Got upgraded to a 52Mbps connection for £2 less a month so I'm not moaning

 

[Triple Helix]

Still smoking here! Speed test - how fast is your internet? | DSLReports, ISP Information

 

[Wrench97]

It depends on what your ISP is advertising and you are paying for.

My fibre upgrade was due on 27/7 but it's been delayed until 11/8. It's going to be a loooong wait:

On the upside, it quite often times out so I guess this is a 'good' day :lol:

 

[Deejay100six]

This is wireless.

This is after I plugged it in!

 

[Triple Helix]

I'm tiring out the new Gigabit 1000/50 plan but my upload sucks.

 

[Tekno Venus]

Sometimes I do miss my Uni internet...

 

[tom982]

Wow :eek4: Is that on a uni computer or can you hook up your own devices over gigabit? If it's the latter, you've just nominated yourself for downloading every Windows Update

That was my Uni accommodation, so that was on my own machine.

Sadly I'm no longer in Uni accommodation from this year so I'm "stuck" with a 70/10 connection.

However, all machines in the university get that speed, so I can still use it if we need speedy downloads. I could download a whole Windows 7 ISO in about 2 minutes

 

[tom982]

I had 120/90 or something in halls and thought that was pretty good Highest I had on campus was 600 at 3am in the library.

Might have to get you to, I have no idea how big the downloads will be.

2 separate ISPs. First is a public wifi available at my home; 2nd is our Internet that we pay for.

At home, 8 year old eMachine desktop computer, about a 12 year old DOCSIS 2 modem and an old router.
Since we don't stream, this is more than adequate for 2 senior citizens.

 

[axe0]

Can't say I'm unhappy

 

[Sysnative Windows Update]

After 7 years of waiting, there's a possibility that I'll finally be moving from the 5 Mb connection :grin1:.

Don't worry, you're not the only one still waiting!

 

[Tekno Venus]

Ouch! I'm surprised you can even do anything with that....

I assume that's DSL - the only option?

 

[Sysnative Windows Update]

OMG, horrendous

Are you sure you aren't using a 56K modem? :smile9:
Let's hope you have some decent free hotspots near you so you can get something done without wasting lots of time trying to load pages.
