nzlegend 1 Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Computer geek thread! post the speed your get down the "series of tubes". Location and connection type too. I am mainly curious as to different speeds of Hikari fibre within Japan. I imagine you guys in Tokyo can get insane speeds. Use Speedtest.net and post the image link here. Cool. Location: Nara Japan connection: NTT Hikari fibre - ISP: Nifty edit: hmm speedtest's image link is not working here is the up/down for me. 30478 kb/s down 9426 kb/s up Link to post Share on other sites

Grew up in Freo, but after travelling all over suburbia from one house to another we have settled in Claremont - convenient for the boys school and public transport for them to get around. Got some good holiday memories of Bridgie though! Nice spot Soubs! Link to post Share on other sites

thursday 1 Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 ping. Think of a submarine sonar. That's the time the signal takes to go there and come back. Link to post Share on other sites
thursday 1 Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Here's my dial-up. Beat that. Link to post Share on other sites
me jane 0 Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 How does it affect the speed? My up- and download rates are similar to Stemik but my ping is much slower than his. Link to post Share on other sites
warhawk 0 Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 ping depends on a lot of factors. one is distance from your pc to your ISP. like thursday said, the further away the longer the message takes to get there. another factor, if you were downloading anything (even looking at a graphics laden website) the ping would be higher. MJ, 66ms isnt too shabby, so don't worry about it. Link to post Share on other sites
