Who has the fastest net connection?

[blazeking]

yay fastest upload.

 

[Xenarchy]

My Comcast 8mb cable.

ALSO this is on my wireless from the livingroom on my new macbook pro core 2.

So this test might have slightly better results from a wired connection that isn't on my "public" network.

 

[Yanks2435]

It was a happy day when it came around my area.

Yeah, they have the trucks out laying down the Fiber lines now. I would guess it will be another week or two before they are done, they have been working on it for maybe 3 weeks or so. After that is done, I think they have to set up the network which takes a while

Edit: My speedtest was from Norwood Light, my town ISP. Packaged at 4mb down, 256 up for like 35 WITH TV, 45 without.

 

[omegatotal]

the atlanta test site is the best no matter what location of hte states you are in, it's one of the biggest hubs.. and speakeasy has a datacenter located near with a massive connection to it, or so it seems

I thought this thread is about who has the fastest net connection, not who's school/employer has the fastest...

Who has the fastest interent that actually pays for it with their own money?



4mb Comcast package, paying about $30 a month for 6 months, then it goes up to $45 a month.

 

[maxpower1119]

Cox 5 mbps down, 2 mbps up.Usually my speed test results are spot on. Might be a little low because I'm remote desktoped. I dont have to pay for the connection though.

 

[CopyThat]

Holy shit CopyThat, where are you in the TC? I'm in Minnetonka...with speeds nowhere near that, what's your connection/service?

Plymouth
In the Command center for United Health

Home is Mediacom Cable 10M Down 1 M up

 

[JRT]

[arman01]

is the first result kilobits or kilobytes?

 

[shadowwyvern]

lower case "b" so I am pretty sure it is in kilobits. The real question is is it SI or 1024-based...

 

[-(Xyphox)-]

Comcast at home,
Have to do one from work so you guys can drool

 

[Xipher]

it's SI, or 1000. Binary prefixes are used for storage, networking uses SI.

 

[Grentz]

LOL

I hate my internet.....

I am right on the edge of even being able to get dsl, so they slow my line down to 512k....is what really sucks is i still have to pay for 1.5mb DSL and there are no other providers around. Thanks Sprint!

Still better than satellite since I can play online games at least

 

[DCookSta]

Not bad for work, i'll check at home soon.

 

[mac_cnc]

Standard T-1 at work.

 

[Stormscape]

Here's mine:

I pay for 3000/768. It's C$57/month after tax.

 

[MeatWad]

Sweet

 

[legendz411]

I live in Jacksonville, Fl.
I took one close up, and then as far away as possible.

Everyone should do it like this, so you can see the versatility and you didn't just get one-time spikes.

[COKE CAN]

Cox 5mb cable

 

[SSlaytanic]

comcast

i just wanted to reply that if i were to live in a dorm, and that dorm lease for the year is bought with my own money (well money i earned on scholarships actually), and that includes internet, isn't that pretty much what you're calling for?

and let's not forget who's the op....

 

[khanable]

its a little bit slower than what I usually get.. I'm usually around 28 down and bout 4.2 up

 

[sitheris]

Comcast Cable in Reston, VA

 

[k1ng]

funny how im much farther from NYC than canada.. their servers must suck or somethin

would be much faster if there werent ~30,000 computers using the same connection.

 

[Sucka]

My Cox Home connection.

No. I asked about who has the fastest connection and actually pays for it. Going by the prices around here, a line of that speed would cost you around 4,000-4,500 a month.

and let's not forget who's the op....

God forbid I ask a question in your presence
