Re: How fast is 1.5 Mbps?
Your a fucking tard. thats the speed of your network card, and its not even a fast one. if were going by your reasoning i have a 100mb pipe.

Thats just how fast someone could send data through your computer, but ofcourse no one does as you don't have 10mb.

yeah yeah. to be precise, yeah. :P
but anyway, 1.5 megabit/second internet service should get you roughly 187 kilobytes/second download speeds, and 3 megabits/second would be about 375 kilobytes/second. it makes a lot of sense when you know the "8 bits = 1 byte" rule.
Re: How fast is 1.5 Mbps?
Around 187kb/sec? Thats wonderful compared to 4.5kb/sec dial-up. :D
So 8 bits = 1 byte, I've learned something new! :01:
Re: How fast is 1.5 Mbps?
I have the 1.5Mbps and I have gotten in the 200s on downloads...but yah usually around 150ish but mines 60 bucks a month
Re: How fast is 1.5 Mbps?
You pay $60 a month for 1.5Mbps DSL?
Wow I feel lucky. :)
Not to brag or anything...
EDIT: I wonder how much they'll charge after the first year... :unsure:

yeah $60 for 1.5 megabit is a pretty high price. i'm paying about $40 for 3 megabit... was paying approx the same as bigdawg, but the trick is that some isps will keep charging you the "introductory" price if you sign up for another one-year commitment.
so if your commitment period has run out and your isp is charging you a really high price, try giving them a call and see if they are willing to give you a discount in exchange for committing to another year.
