thats 30 megabits.

Best ive had is 2.14 meg/sec on Virgin 20 meg shame the upload sucks
Yeah, FiOS=Fiber Optic Service.CommieChipmunk wrote:
Do you use the new fiber optics stuff?? They're putting it into my neighborhood right now! I have comcast, which isn't slow.. but its not terribly fast eitherHurricane wrote:
My fastest DL peak has been just under 2000KB/s (yeah, KiloBYTES). It was when I downloaded the BF2Combat mod (fucking nice servers they have). I spent most of that download at 1,500KB/s (AKA 1.5MBps). I fucking love Verizon's internets service. Their cell phone service, not so much.
Elviscerator, where do you live? That's some insane speed for Comcrap.
60 kb/s
i get about 1.5mb/sec from servers that can handle it...
when fukin FiOS gets over here, i should have speeds around 5mb/sec or faster (zomg)

It's definitely worth it. The only bad part is the kinda long installation, but after that you'll be leet.[TUF]Whiskey_Oktober wrote:

I think i have a problem. My torrents usually download at less than 10KB/s. When I download regular files from the internet I download at around 400KB/s, 600KB/s if im lucky. Why is there such a huge difference in my torrent downloads, and how can I speed them up. BTW the one i am downloading now is going at 2KB/s and i am there are like 800 seeders and 900 leechers. HELP!
ports my friend open your port through your router and disable port randomization
450 kb/s
A average at about 200kb/s which isn't too good, but then again I'm sure I always get the slowest servers
My record is 7000kb/s which felt.....so good! Hehe.
I've got 16meg but getting 24 next month!

2.3Mb/s max. Generally 1.3Mb/s.
It's amazing downloading things at this speed.

thanks for the advice, but I am semi-retarded when it comes to routers/networking, and am not sure how to do this.mitch212k_2 wrote:

I have something around 15mbit, using IDM I can get 1MB a sec from most servers that are up to the task (it bypasses the usual limits). The maximum Ive ever done is 1.3 MB/sec through an FTP, downloading about 30 parts of a split archive at once
500KB/s
Good enough, wont expect any more until the UK upgrades itself to fibre optic all over.

depends where you download, torrents usually go slower than downloading something from internet.
160k is do-able, but pretty slow compared to what you can get. 160k is a bit more than a 1Mbit connection, but a 10Mbit connection can get speeds like 1.2MB/s in optimal situations. So it's oké for normal surfing behavior and most games, but an upgrade wouldn't hurt.
(btw I have only 200k usually, but then again, I only have to pay 10€/month).

Thanks, I've been wanting to know what 10MBit connections can do. I might upgrade,De_Jappe wrote:

Probably slightly above just below average.
So would this be a good plan?

100 gig limit/month and 'up to 10 Mbit'
seems oke, don't know the average prices in canada though, there are countries in which you can get faster for 50$ a month, but it seems a reasonable offer. (also depending on how much you pay now)
And don't forget that if it says bit, you have to divide by 8 to get byte, so 8 Megabit = 1Megabyte.
for a good server. dammed virgin cheapness and lack of cable in my area.Longbow wrote:
