What speed do you get? and Where are you?
With My 512/256 ADSL on average I get about 458kb download speed which I think is quite good!! :D With a top speed ever of 461kb! :D
I'm in the UK
If you wanna try a test try this site
Speed Test

512/256k Pipex ADSL B)
I think mine is 1.5Mbit. I never get constant speeds over 200KB/sec, it always starts off at around 400KB then drops down from 100-175KB/sec.
I don't believe you're getting those sort of speeds, unless you have read it wrong. I have a 1MB connection which includes a 256k/b upload.Quote:

Maximum speeds I am capable of are:
Download: 125kb/sec
Upload: 30kb/sec
Technically, you should have roughly half of what I get, thus you should see:
Download: 62.5kb/sec
Upload: 15kb/sec
I think you may have meant to say 45.8kb/sec, which if so is pretty bad for what you're paying for. Hope this makes sense. Don't want to see people celebrating when infact they're getting ripped off :unsure:

1Mb/sec = (1024/8) = 128kB/secQuote:

1024 kilobots / second = 128 kilobytes / second
most services are quoted in kilobits per second (or megabits), however, download speeds you'll see are generally in kilobytes per second :)

I know what your saying, but what is your d/l speed in kbps?
I must admit it is a bit confusing about KB'S and kb's but I'm quoting just what I read from the speed test sites so thats how we should compare with each other, if we all use kbps then we'll know!
Here is my result from the page that 3rd gen noob used,bare in mind I am from Nova Scotia Canada and the speed test originates in the UK.

512/128 adsl i get 53k a sec :)
As for my previous post, I think the majority knew I meant kB/Sec :lol:
Sorry if I confused anyone there... wasn't intentional. Here are my results from the speed test software located at ADSL Guide. Click here for my personal test.
ISP: NTL
DOWNLOAD: 109.9 kB/Sec
UPLOAD: 30.1 kB/Sec
I must stress at this point, I was running Live Update but it hasn't seem to altered the findings too much... As I mentioned before, I usually get 125kB/Sec Vs 30kB/Sec
Hope this helps anyone,
Samurai :ph34r:
I have 512/128 adsl, I get about 400kb/s downstream and 90kb/s upstream.
My download speed top is 72kb/s but on average about 51kb/s my uploads are about 15kb/s.
im in australia.
BTW guys the first guy that said his speed was 458kb/s or what ever he was talking about Downstream not Download thats why he said test it here!!
speed test (done from the U.K. using an american server (if you doubt the veracity, stick in the url shown in the pic))
fast upload
B)
this was done at a peak time on T3, about 25 people in one lab alone
i'll try and get another one done tomorrow

if so, their fastest is 6Mbps, and you can get residential T3 in the UK (even dual trunk T3), but it's obviously rather expensive and rare
people who work for comms companies get very fast comms lines too...
Thats the UK for you always behind and will be till BT get sacked.Quote:

22.0Mbps
