Guest Satanisk_Slakt Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 (edited) I know, boring thread, but I just came across this site by a coincidence and made a test. Wireless:With wire:http://www.speedtest.net/I pay for 100 MB per second, so this was a really shitty result. I suppose that it being wireless, that I used some programs that uses internet and that my computer is really slow might affect it? I don't know. It's quite crappy anyway. What's yours?Edit: What the hell is ping, by the way? Edited October 14, 2012 by Satanisk_Slakt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't had that slow since we had those dial connection things back in the 90's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron_H Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Last times checked, around 20Mb.Ping is the time it takes send and receive a small message from a remote server. It's a measure of the time it takes to establish a connection to that server. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tater Totts Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Sky broadband is slow but cheap (if you have a bundle including TV).Really, I would hardly say that 20MB is slow, if anything it is quite fast for UK standards, even when I was in halls in first year the connection would only just about hit 25MB. The only people I know with faster connections are ones with fiber optic, but for me at Uni 20MB is fine between three people and for the price of Sky it is well worth it.When I am at home I get about 2MB max but my parents don't really want to change as they are happy with the speed.

Tater Totts Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 I would kill for that speed! One of the biggest problems I have with the internet here in the UK is that no matter how fast your download speed is your upload speed usually sucks.

Guest Satanisk_Slakt Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Yeah, the upload speed does suck. It's 15mbps on this and it was 17mbps on the last picture I posted. It's really bad compared to the download speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tater Totts Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 I would kill for upload speed that fast, half the time in the UK your service provider screws you with the upload speed, even on my current 20MB connection I only get about 2/3MB upload.
