How fast is your internet?
« on: March 01, 2007, 09:22:46 PM »
Yes, I stole this from garry's bog. I've always used http://testmy.net before today, functional, but not quite as fun as this...

I thought it might be interesting to compare speeds of different areas/ISPs. Garry pulled up a great site for this: http://speedtest.net/

Post your results here!



Edit: I should mention I just switched ISPs today, I'm getting about twice the speed I used to.

I really don't like charter, they promise 3 megabytes minimum, and before now I used to always get about 50 KBPS.
Blegh.


Lollers.

Your internet is 10x faster than mine, and as such, you are now a mortal enemy.

Prepare to die.

As I said, capacity capacity capacity, I lack it, therefore the only screenshot you're getting from me is a bullet through the screen.
