Speed test results

[DBall]

Just for the hell of it, let's see who has the good speeds. Here's one of the benefits of working at a telecom company (this result is at the office, not at home):

Nice!

When I taught at Portland State University, I had a network research lab that was connected to Internet2 and several other backbones. Through an equipment grant from Intel and Alcatel, I had gigabit to my desktop. Didn't make MS Word run any faster though...

I really don't think these speed tests prove anything though. The day I download NEAR 20MB/S I'll die of happyness....more than likely I D/L between 1.5mb/s - 2.5mb/s.

I'm on crapcast though so chances are I should be going faster.

Did I mention I really don't believe these tests at all. At that speed my websites should load at the blink of an eye.....they don't.

Gotta take hardware (on both ends) into account. :tu

[kickerb]

small correction Bill, you have 20Mb not 20MB

that is a HUGE difference in speeds. 20MB = 160Mb

:D :r

:Dyou're upload speed is super awesome, and very rare!

[Bill86]

Yeah I hear ya, Crapcast is exceptionally bad in my area.....

I've had their service in 3 different cities, this is by far the worst. My modem and router are always new (under 6 months old) and they are always "fixing something" around here...nothing changes.

I really think small cities get the shaft big time in service. That and go figure we're ONE BLOCK from getting fiber optics.

[kickerb]

also, make sure that you pick a good server on the speedtest.net site. for instance If i speed test from Tallahassee, FL to Tallahassee, FL it is not impressive. this is because the speed test server is slow in Tallahassee. But if I connect to say Atlanta, GA instead. I see a MUCH better speed test! :)

Eh that doesn't change my connection speed though Bryan, only makes the numbers higher. I could really care less about the numbers. I want results. Comcast plays the pick a city game with me all the time.

I haven't checked this one out fully but I'm 99% sure it is a DOCSIS 3.0.

[kickerb]

well doing a little math, it seems you are right on target.

20.72 megabits (Mb) = 2.59 megabytes (MB) you said you would get 2.5MB down

Im on comcastic as well, im satisfied with it. the speeds are good in Tallahassee, FL.

Well, 2.59 MB down is a rarity...more often than not it's a constant 1.5mb/s down. Occasionally I'll get the 2.5mb/s down. But rarely.

It's not just the speeds....for me the service really sucks, comcast could give a F**Kless. They hire really stupid employees and all they will do is "send a technician". I specifically tell them no, I do not want your level 1 idiots on my property. They still repeat the same nonsense. :sl :sl :sl

[kickerb]

yes, i agree Bill, comcast lacks intelligent employees. not sure why.

Yup. I am on the pro-plus plan of theirs. Supposed to be 1.5mbps down and 256kbps up. I havent done the math to see how close i really am on the upload, but im prob not remotely close.
