My internet speed at Uni. Let's see yours.

Holy cock, JANET's changed a bit since my day.
I remember managing to up the speed on my terminal from 4800bps to 9600bps and thinking my god, the raw power! Kids of today, etc.

Hmmm... bit of a contrast there
Ours is alright

It has been a bit quicker last couple of months mind. get up to about 6.4meg now and then. Speed is woeful in the early evening though, iPlayer etc unwatchable quite often.

moving to Virgin next week though...

I'm assuming my problem is that my location is rural, rather than that Zen is useless...

Quoted as being 30 mbps so happy with that. Still doesn't seem fast enough at times.
[img] 
[/img]
At work; at home it is woeful, like the 3rd world, only slower.

Joolsburger has quite a nippy connection!
Yeah but we is on the cloud innit. Can't watch films or anything because the Igel terminals are so pants.
I can watch iplayer just fine

So far I have the slowest internets on STW! 😮
Must be some people still using dial up somewhere?

On the upside, based on that figure, I'll wager you have the highest shite-per-second rate on STW.

Paying for up to 20, and my router says I'm getting 17. Speedtest says I'm getting 7.

Mine is absolutely awful. Unreliable and slow -- this is a good day. About 2 miles from a major urban centre, too!

Something else on your network using up bandwidth?
I'll wager you have the highest shite-per-second rate on STW.
No, that'll be you. Oh look you just did it again! More shite!

Elf - I thought everything was brilliant in London! Why have they supplied you with two tin cans and a piece of string instead of broadband like the rest of us?
In fact, I get a better result from the other side of the world 😆

Why have they supplied you with two tin cans and a piece of string instead of broadband like the rest of us?
Because British Telecom what owns the hardware and the exchanges (what were built using taxpayers money originally) chose not to invest their profits in more hardware and instead provide a crappy residential service whilst offering a far better quality service to Canary Wharf, which runs off the same exchange. This area has the highest line contention rates in the UK, way beyond the 'industry recommended guidelines'.
BT was privatised with the illusion of 'increased competition' and other such guff. This is a fallacy, as they have the monopoly on hardware, still.
Guess who's to blame? 😉

Just in the process of switching from Pipex/tiscali/TalkTalk to Virgin, so hoping in a couple of weeks time those figures will be 4 and a bit times better.

There are no LLU providers at your exchange then?

Are you using RFC 1149?
[img] 
[/img]
Quite pleased with that for £7.50pm.
I was getting a piddling .94mb/s with Tesco bb only a few weeks ago and being charged £18.50pm for it, robbers.
Are you using RFC 1149?
??? erm, dunno. whats that?

Work
Have a better download speed at home but pony upload.

Paying for 20Mb so 🙂

Pretty bad! Up a mountain in the Alps.
Blam!

Is there a prize or something?
Blam!
Well done, you have the second fastest ping rate!
(seriously, WTF are you, an ISP?)

oh right, yes thats it 😉

Not as fast a most of you lot, I get a D- 🙁
This is after I was "upgraded" last week as well.

I got 85Mb on the second run once the Riverbeds kicked in (I think).
Not showing the linky as we are our own ISP.
Uni of WOE must be P0rn Central
TD your Kung Fu is powerful!
Damn! I was pretty confident I'd have the slowest connection 😥
[img] 
[/img]
At least "slower than 83% of GB" only refers to my broadband speed 😀
Anyone with >100Mb will struggle to get a speedtest server that can handle the test properly.My PC has a gigabit conenction, which eventually becomes a 10Gb to the internet. It's nice!
if this is a dick waving contest then my download speed would roughly translate to mine equalling the size of a vagina...
Anyone with >100Mb will struggle to get a speedtest server that can handle the test properly.
Yeah. Ultimately you're only as fast as the slowest component. Usually that's your connection to the ISP (ADSL or whatever), but with sufficiently fast connections your limit is going to be your home WiFi, your router, the rate a server can serve, speeds of various routers along the way, etc.

Blam!
Is the speedtest server on your LAN? 8)

17:30 is probably not the best time to do a "fastest" test?

You Cheat! You used Tonylem's, as the date and time are exactly the same. You should have changed that.
I was waiting for someone to pick up on it 🙂

Tresco, Isles of Scilly. This connection is shared between 3 people!
Waiting for that one person who has (Slower than 99% of GB) 🙂

We are well behind europe for inet speeds 😐
Mine's an F, slower than 90% of GB

Adequate, except when trying to get 4OD through Tunnelbear.

Not bad, as I pay for 20mb...

Ping's usually a lot lower than that. Hm.
And I thought it was pretty good! Better than my old house anyway, and the riding is good round Matlock so always something else to do 🙂

Girlfriend just switched off her machine so thought mine would run faster!
Nope even slower??
Not bad considering the house is a shitty old miners cottage that is well over a hundred years old. The new builds up the road don't get enough band width to run XBOX live.!

I just wish the upload speed was anything like the download speed. It's taking ages to upload videos to fb, photobucket and pinkbike 🙁

Chr1st, I knew it was bad, I didn't realise it was that bad.
Still, it's as fast as I can w@nk so I ain't complaining
