I have lightning-fast internet. Jelly?

[Meganium]

In the past few days, I've been a show off to my friends because I got faster internet than them due to the change of ISP. It's quite funny, but it's also interesting because you get to know that internet speeds in each household actually varies.

So, how fast is your internet? Go to Speedtest.net, copy the forum link and paste your results here!

Other discussion questions:
What internet provider do you have currently? Do you like it?
How much per month are you paying for your internet?

h-staff if y'all think this goes to LU&E, that's perfectly fine. lol

I tested my speed once everyone had gone to bed so this is my internet when nothing else is downloading or uploading.


Currently I'm with Virgin Media. I'm pretty happy with it, I've never encountered any problems and there was the whole doubling your broadband speed they did a few months ago. I don't think I've ever even had a time where the internet slowed down due to a problem on their end.
My parents are currently paying for 10mbps download, but as I mentioned earlier they've recently doubled everyone's internet speeds so they can compete against BTs new fiber optic broadband. I'd say the speed I'm getting now is pretty damn decent since it's throwing out speeds a little bit faster than what we were told we'd be getting. Even the upload is pretty good since it's a solid 1mbps at all times and the majority of people who live in my area seem to fluctuate between 0.10mbps and 0.50mbps.

Yeah I am jelly. My browser keeps crashing and slowing down for no reason.

I don't want people to see where I'm from so I'll do this manually

Ping: 31 ms
Download speed: 6.13 MB/s
Upload Speed: 1.03 MB/s
Grade: C-

This is the result I usually get now. I'm with Eastlink and I'm really happy with their speeds. Their 40Mb/s internet is about $30 a month so it's pretty nice.

Wow. Wow. Wow.

We pay $50/month for:


As you can see I'm with Xplornet, and I hate them. Unfortunately it's all that's available out here :(

The download may not be as fast as some of the posts in here, but by far, my upload speed is uh-may-zing.

We have Verizon FiOS here and I must say, they must be the most stable internet one could have (here in the states at least). It's very rare for the internet to go out without it being our fault and the bandwidth isn't shared with your neighborhood. My family pays ~$45/month or so for internet.

Haha, the speed test went absolutely crazy when I tried it first, determining my download speed in one second, which ended up with 5Mb/s, which is totally off. Anyways;

Pretty happy with the download speed and the most impressive upload speed, even though I'll rarely put it to use. I'm with an internet provider none of you'll probably know, and yeah, I'm pretty content with the great speed we're provided with overall.

Fire away, for my shield is ready:

 

[ZetaZaku]

I am satisfied with my speed, and I feel like it's too fast. My hard drive can't keep up with it. It's about 13 $/month.

 

[double trouble!]

This is less than half of what I should be getting.
Isn't outdated Wireless G amazing?

Edit: On wired connection:

 

[Brendino]

I'm not sure exactly what we're paying for internet since it came in a bundle with our TV and phone, but I would guess it to be about $35/month. It's just unfortunate that my computer is quite old, so I'm lucky if I even manage to get 1/3rd of that download speed.

 

[Pretor54]

I had around 2 Mbps ↑, and about 0.25 Mbps ↓. I wasn't aware, however, it suddenly changed to 5.15 Mbps ↑ and 0.64 Mbps ↓. We pay around 46 USD with a sort-of extensive use of telephone service.

 

[Nihilego]

wtf I hate you guys.

It's pretty much average as far as where I live goes. If I get into Uni, though, it'll be miles quicker because it's in the middle of a huge city!

 

[BZW Golem]

Not that bad, I'm surprised by my upload speed.. better than I expected xD

 

[Kroso]

Honestly not too happy.
Because my brother plays that ugly game COD most of the day

 

[Winneon]

I personally think this is okay. :)

 

[Squirrel]

Not too bad :3 With Virgin Media and I've never really noticed any huge problems connection wise; it's always been pretty fast and reliable. The only time that differs is when the computer is swarming with viruses but that's not their fault x]

 

[Railgun]

I wish I had fast wifi. I have Verizon and its so bad. It loads so slow up in my room.

1.25 mps for me

 

[s0nido]

The upload speed was really weird, but yeah, I'm happy with my internet. I pay AU$79 for a phone + internet bundle, but it's capped at 120 GB. After that, it slows down. I rarely exceed 120 GB anyway, so I'm not complaining. Plus, the bundled home phone gives me unlimited calls to Australian landline and Optus mobiles, so I'd say it's good value for service. I would like an unlimited broadband plan, though. Maybe when Google Fiber comes to Australia~

 

[Lord Varion]

Wow.
But then again my bro is on PSN and dad on XBL.
But, still...

 

[Meganium]

Answering my own topic finally lmao.



Comparing to the two open wifi access points between in my neighborhood, I pretty much beat both lmao. I finally got to ditch AT&T for Time Warner and to be quite honest, it is the best switch I've done. It's also cheap as well. Paying $30 a month compared to $40 with AT&T.

wakachamo, i am officially jelly. :P
