[DR.GONZO]

dam, those are good speeds, I clicked it again and got 2144 kbps , DAm cable is the shit! what are you using cable as well.

[RC45]

Yep - cable - and undertand that's the effective throughput to this PC - and right now we have games being played, files being downloaded to other PC's - a web site being hosted all on the same network connection - and still get those speeds... ;)

p.s. - not the most accurate tool though... ;)

13600 Kbps - You 13600 kbps
20400 Kbps - You 20400 kbps
10200 Kbps - You 10200 kbps
13161.3 Kbps - You 13161.3 kbps
1406.9 Kbps - You 1406.9 kbps

1095.3 Kbps - You 1095.3 kbps
18545.5 Kbps - You 18545.5 kbps

there is a speed test which is much more accurate. The only problem is that it is now almos always busy.

where do I find the speed test?? Demon

These bandwidth test things are a load of crap. I've tested several of them, both at home (3Mbit DSL) and at work (100Mbit ethernet...no, really), and they never come close.

They basically measure the speed of the slowest link between you and the testing server, which isn't a big help. With probably 5-15 routers in the middle, it'll almost never be as fast as your connection can handle. Also, their servers are testing how many other people at the same time as you? 10? 100? And you're probably doing other things with your machine too. And there could be other people on your network segment. Etc. etc.

Besides, the whole point of those things is to lead you to advertisements for more bandwidth, right? :wink:

OMG :!: You guys have such fast connections. I only got a standard DSL connection with a max DL speed of 96kb/s so it takes quite long to DL car vids bigger than 100mb... :cry:

And your still complaining ?? I used to have modem, ut now I have a 512kbits DSl. Max transfer- 64kb/s.

[ported_head]

im not even going to bother complaining on the sorry state of my internet connection. i used to have a dial-up so far, but i shifted to cable about 3 months back, and guess what? the cable connection sucks even more. the only advantage being 24 hr connectivity. and this being the only bandwidth i could afford. i can't wait to get out of this country.

HOw expensive is DSL in Poland? Just interested because your neighbours in Ukraine pay 200$+ for 512.
