well I have been messing around all day... and managed to push my free internet up to

Free internet!

mine today



willy manged to get it 2x what he showed here on download speed

my isp sucks, obviously, but is the only one available out here.

Don't know what everyone is complaining about...
I'm near the end of a very, very long wire...



It's supposed to be a 1.5M connection (1 down, 0.5 up). I noticed an increase in download speed a couple of months ago. Looks like I lost a little upload speed in the process, but I'm not going to complain.

It sure beats dial-up.

How in the heck do you get that kind of speed for free?

I'm paying $40 per month for 3M down.

i didnt even read that gnu....

since when is comcast free willy (and can you please tell me how you got download to 60!)

I can't imaging having internet faster than this, I've had it like this so long. It feels fast... :P



What's up with a 29 mb/s download? That kind of connection should be able to read your mind or tell you about your future. Everyone's future.

i thought this was normal....0_0

lol... maybe, willy managed to get 60 mb/s somehow and that should be a good connection to start using teleporters

I have your download speed Willy, but I have Amanda's upload speed (very close anyway) which sucks. I had issues with my old cablemodem so around 3 weeks ago I had Charter change it and they gave me a Cisco 3010 and I it gave me download speeds 10 times faster then my old modem (knew if was my old modem giving me the problems; lol). The upload speeds been atrocious though. Looking at Charter's main site, even their specs stink, but I should at least have 2Mb/s upload but pretty much getting less then 400kb/s (that's bits not bytes but most here know that) which stinks on ice since when I want to share a file, I have to upload it. Not sure what the issue is, but, when my PC is on, the link light blinks like there's no tomorrow (thought it should be a solid on) at the Cable modem end. Weird stuff. None of the documentation that I have gives me the default user/password for the modem either nor have I been able to find the right one online. I use to have some control by logging on to my old modem but the only thing I can get with my new modem is a status page. Oh well. Getting my updates at rocket speed and downloading large files has been a blessing though so I can't really complain too much. lol

I got this, yiihaa ! (at work of course )

This thing is nowhere close to accurate. Ran it ten times and it never got close.

I have a business class cable connection. Download speeds (based upon actual downloads such as daily site backup) are always between 500Mb/s and 1.5Gb/s. Upload speeds are always between 200Mb/s and 500Mb/s. Maybe it only works on residential connections.

I should say not paying extra, Phone, Internet, and Cable....
I still call that free cause I am not paying for extra

*shrugs*

Lucky dog; you got a symmetric ISP. Wish they would give us symmetric (those ISP cheapskates here don't want us to upload anything; hate them; hate them all; lol).

Sweet Jesus thats a nice connection

show-off, hahahaha! i'm very jealous of that speed!
