ug 0 Posted April 28, 2003 Author Share Posted April 28, 2003 Great! Thanks! What do you score. I got 848. That seems low for a 8MB connection.... Link to post Share on other sites
kintaro 0 Posted April 28, 2003 Share Posted April 28, 2003 I scored 612 on the obove site but a 997 on a test at dslreports.com. I'm using fiber optics...talk about not reaching your potential!! I should have 100Mbps!! Link to post Share on other sites

peterson 0 Posted April 29, 2003 Share Posted April 29, 2003 I get 1020 and I'm supposed to be on an 8MB line too. How come? It's a con. Link to post Share on other sites
LARD 0 Posted April 29, 2003 Share Posted April 29, 2003 When I upgraded from 1.5 to 8, there was negligible difference in my connection. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted April 29, 2003 Share Posted April 29, 2003 Who cares? It all seems to come gliding down the pipe pretty fast these days. If you want extra speed, it's probably better to get a faster processor than keep paying for a faster connection. Link to post Share on other sites
rajeem 0 Posted April 29, 2003 Share Posted April 29, 2003 The faster the better, if you ask me. I got 1498 kbps! Do I win?! Link to post Share on other sites

mikazooki 0 Posted April 29, 2003 Share Posted April 29, 2003 sorry cant check my bandwidth, cos after reading more on the p2p thing i decided it was time (ive avoided it cos i knew it would be trouble). but my bandwidth is serving me ok, downloaded more than 20Gb of shit in 2 days. its amazing how interesting it is to sit and watch the downlad speeds change. i pay for 1.5Mbps cable and usu get around 1, but very rarely, if ever, fill it with use. couldnt get ADSL cos they were laying the hikari fibres round my house when i moved in, ADSL was out and the it wouldve taken 6wks to hook into the new stuff (but the claim was it would be fast) my friend round the corner get 3Mbps on an 8 meg line. try the yahoo bb speedchecker in japan, those american testers test with downloads that go thru a number of servers and may underestimate your potential speed. (but most of our traffic prpbably heads stateswards, so its a fair reflection on what u really get) Link to post Share on other sites

Karnidge 2 Posted April 30, 2003 Share Posted April 30, 2003 That Japan one is much quicker than the US ones. Glad to see that coz the US results were pretty depressing. Link to post Share on other sites
indosnm 0 Posted April 30, 2003 Share Posted April 30, 2003 I scored adismal 315-325!!!??? the last few days it has seemed really slow. any hints on boosting the speed? Link to post Share on other sites
mikazooki 0 Posted April 30, 2003 Share Posted April 30, 2003 try pc pitstop ... if u r happy letting them penetrate your computer and read all your files they will do a performance assessment and add the results to their database. (i wouldnt do it now, as i actually need my computer, but did it on an old pc with nothing of importance on). at the end, if they identify a problem, they will let u know and, will no doubt recommend some handy software for u to buy.
