What is your download speed?

Well VB's thread is over 4 years old and the poll is closed anyway (and it had turned pretty much into a n00b-magnet). The poll results would be irrelevant now and many people who had originally posted to it have changed their ISP or package so I'm reviving it to make it current.

You don't need to post a comment but if you want to I'd appreciate it if you avoided spamming with just on 1mbps or something... tell us who your ISP is as well, or whatever.

I'll unreservedly delete posts that I consider spam.

>8mbps and i use time warner road runner. i believe we're supposed to be getting upgraded here soon to keep up with Verizon's new Fi0S (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verizon_FiOS) broadband. looks to be the next hot p2p buddy.

As a torrentuser i feel that up speed is rather important.
So my connection is 2mbit shdsl
Thats 2mbit/2mbit works well, Though sometimes id love a bit more download

thewizeard
03-14-2007, 10:46 AM
I could give you a link so you could test my upload speed which is quite fast, by present day standards, using a measured test file of 32 MBs.. It should max most members bandwidth out, for those whom it doesn't, please pm me if you wish to run a dedicated server ;)


test file 32mbs http://www.mensap2p.com/Imagine_If/file32mb.bin just open it and check my upload speed as it downloads to your computer ... cancel it when it maxes...

or download something usefull while you test the speed http://www.mensap2p.com//Rafi/spybotsd14.exe

Also, I go to my parents house who have 6 down and 3 up.

Using Sprint EVDO right now and get around those speeds, maybe a little lower as there are not much people around my town that uses it.

Server:

50mbit/50mbit

usually around that, might go down to 40/40 on peak times.

Im all the way here in the very unlucky south africa..

4meg down / 384K upload not uncapped only with a 3gig cap, i pay R1000 +- 70 pounds or +- 166 Dolars. For uncapped i would have to pay double and the uncapped is limmited to 1meg download speed and shaped during the day time..

We do however have a couple local torrent sites (2) LOL that have okay speeds and get the files pretty fast. We also have 1 news server, which first has to cached the file you are downloading, so this takes a while.. Once the file is cached and another person downloads it they get full speed..

Ye so be greatfull for your people connections.

Don't worry they will need a fast Internet connection in South Africa soon, That's just about the time you will be getting the same speeds as we in Europe. Do you live close to Durban bye any chance?
