Post your Speed test results here.

Go to the Speedtest site and take the test to determine your internet speed. Post results below so we can compare, Oh yeah, dont forget to have a nice day and spread the love.

My results...

Sang · 02-16-2009, 11:23 AM

Yeah, when I'm downloading from or uploading to a "recommended server" or pretty much a server that isn't far away, in daily internet usage this will mostly not be the case so let's take these results with a grain of salt

I pay 70 bucks a month for my lousy connection

Hey if you dont mind tell us what you pay a month, in USD.

NutWrench · 02-16-2009, 11:45 AM

ZaphodB · 02-16-2009, 11:46 AM

And I'm wireless. $60 a month. I can hook my USB wireless modem to my laptop and get internet almost anywhere in the US, no roaming charges or extra fees. But I do have a 5GB per month cap.

retested and new results:

evanazzo · 02-16-2009, 11:57 AM

Had WoW running at the time so I dunno if that would effect it

Iggy · 02-16-2009, 11:58 AM

Damn, I'm good.

TBZ · 02-16-2009, 11:58 AM

About $37/month.

I don't quite understand kbps off the bat but I get 150 KB downloads and 40 KB uploads

kb = kilobit
KB = kilobyte

1 KB = 8 kb

If you divide those numbers by 8 you'll get similar numbers (150KB and 40 KB).

Dave-ros · 02-16-2009, 12:24 PM

I'm on a 24-meg connection, but I'm also on a wireless network, which reduces the speed a bit. Before you ask, yes, we're quite close to the exchange

ZuljinRaynor · 02-16-2009, 01:21 PM

I'll post my house speed when I get home. I got Fios at home.

But this is my result at my dorm:

Price = Included in Room.

John · 02-16-2009, 01:22 PM

Meh.

Dave-ros · 02-16-2009, 01:24 PM

^^ Zuul, why is your upload so very, very much bigger than your download? Or do you have a proper DSL connection (i.e. same bandwidth either way) and it's just a bad day for downloads?

Note that no-one in Britain offers symmetrical connections, and indeed the company offering the biggest download speeds, Virgin Media cable, still offers only a couple of meg upload speeds. I guess they think anyone who wants a big upload bandwidth is a P2P pirate

Superczar · 02-16-2009, 01:24 PM

LOL, WTF Zulie, your upload > download?!

Mine at work:

I think we got the $30/month Verizon deal here...

Nimoy · 02-16-2009, 01:26 PM

Zuljie probably has a larger upload because he's at a college, and people upload stuff to emails etc. pretty often.

They cap our download. That's why. It's a lot more in reality.

TBZ · 02-16-2009, 01:36 PM

This test is all over the place, lower download speed, but higher upload speed this time.

I lied. But it seems that my upload is much lower off campus than on campus. That is odd considering that they do actually limit upload bandwidth (or at least they did when I was living on campus)

Phayzon · 02-16-2009, 05:42 PM

Mine would be very off right now as I'm downloading FEAR 2 in Steam, but my router tells me 1184 down / 448 up. Just did some Speed tests the other day, ping is ~50ms in IE8, >270 in Opera. Wonder why such a difference?

Superczar · 02-16-2009, 05:45 PM

My at home speeds are pretty much the same as at work, which is rather obvious since its Verizon DSL at both locations:

Steve · 02-16-2009, 05:53 PM

Keep in mind, this is NOT peak time for people using the net here. I'll post one at peak time... it's WORSE.
