Question of the Day: Which One of You Has the Fastest Internet Connection?

[wraggster]

Much like the typing speed question I asked over the summer, this question is designed to pit you head-to-head against one another to see who has the biggest e-wang (so to speak). All you need to do is follow this link to test your internet connection speed (http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/).

Not too bad for a transatlantic speed test

[Video_freak]

12,355 kbps download, 2,109 upload. That's with a SF server (I'm in the east bay...)

Hm, for some reason, it's faster on LA servers. I guess all these speed tests aren't 100% accurate.

with cheapest virgin media package (fka ntl)

[osgeld]

i used to have dsl and was getting ~6mb peak 8mb

now i have wireless

825k down
133k up

not the worlds fastest, but i dont have a land line anymore, dsl doesnt reach out to my place

cable internet is an option, but its unholy expensive by the time you get their "digital package" and service fees and whatnot, then 3 months later it doubles

and when you want to use it during peak times the latency is soooooo bad its actually slower than my wireless, until you download something

the wireless has been handy on travel, its stable as a rock, and its only like 25 bucks a month
