    Find out at Speedtest.net

    My best is 25,315 kbps download, up 493 kbps, ping 10 ms, faster than 86% of all internet connections across the world. Location: New York. Standard Time Warner Cable Internet home connection for USD $49 -sweat

    This is a good site to keep checking your stats to see if there are periodic outages.

    What's your stats?

    Can you guys/girls also put how much you're paying for the connection.
     
  4. ^ lol psyduck is right.. depending on the internet package you purchased from your ISP, it could range theoretically from 512kbs to 16mbs speed....

    edit: anyways my results

    [​IMG]

    81% better than anywhere in the world
    and 20-30% more than anywhere in ontario

    You have to compare it with what everyone else in your area is getting. On the top are three tabs: My Results - My Summary - Global Stats

    You should check both the first two tabs to give you a general idea of how your results fare compared to your peers. The third tab will reveal what everyone else around the world is getting on average. You can also look up the stats for other German cities too. Another thing that is important is to look at the distance. If your server is far away (measured in miles) then your speed is going to suck. I test my speed with the New York server and it was great. When I chose the San Francisco server and tested again, I got maybe only a quarter of the speed. -cool2

    93% better than anywhere in the world
    i think it's around 40 bucks or so
     
  11. about mid 40-ish.... 48 after 15% percent off if i'm not mistaken.

    and also, it depends in your area. if it's in northern markham, or north of that, tough luck.

    what's your speeds lol

    thats crazy speed, i thouht everyone in the US bitched about having shitty internets... your upload is terrible, but almost 30 mb/s DL is insanity... you could download some pretty huge amounts of porn in a pretty little amount of time with that

    Just did it again this morning:
    [​IMG] -cool

    The Upload speed is more or less what they advertise. The DL speeds seem to do very well in the mid mornings. And yeah, I do anywhere from 200-300 GBs of DL per month (not pr0n, mind you) of movies, games, ebooks, etc. :punk:
