    If you don't know your internet connection, go to http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest?more=1 and pick the location nearest to you.

    He has a 10Mbps pipe - it says so in the properties box if you enlarge it!

    This has a max (unachievable) of 1.25 Mbps - guestimate would be up to around 1 Meg if there are sufficient seeds/leeches in the swarm to service this sort of speed. Never seen such speeds - from memory the best I've seen is approx 500kBps.

    Actual speed is dependent on all sorts of criteria.

    Go to the stickies for more info.

    DOWNLOADING IS FUN - SHARING IS SUBLIME
    When all else fails - read the instructions!!!

    i think that if he have a 1 Mbps he should be up to 200 Kbps, no more than that

    he should get around 400-700 KB/s from that site with so many seeders and so little leechers! less than at least 350KB/s means that something is wrong!

    Its a 10Mb cable for christ sake!

    Um...you guys are WAY OFF


    Look @ that. And I got 3mbps DSL.

    Only way to tell how fast your connection is, is doing a speed test.

    Thats just the max speed at which that particulat network connection can transfer data not the speed of the connection it access.

    Your download speed : 271 kbps or 33.9 KB/sec.
    Your upload speed : 62 kbps or 7.8 KB/sec.



    I swear I thought I had 1MB broadband
