Have you ever wondered if your isp is delivering what they promise to?  Take the speedtest challenge!  Test your internet speed by going Here:

Click! (http://ww.speedtest.net)

Here's my current speed.  My ISP is not delivering when it comes to upload though. <_<

I might have made a post like this before, but I couldn't find it.  Maybe that was on another forum though.  I can't remember. :)

That is faster then my slow dsl, though I expected mine to be slow since its slow dsl.  

download: 658
upload: 303

ping: 227ms
distance: ~100 miles

Sorry for the no image, but I can't seem to get images to work.

Sadly, in some places faster internet is either super expensive or just not available.  I know Action can't get much faster than what he has unless he pays a lot of money.  I am fortunate to be able to get my super fast speeds of 26mbps download and 12mbps upload for less than $200, but in some more rural areas, that would cost about a thousand dollars a month if they even had it.

Your download isn't too bad, but your upload is terrible! :o 88kps?  I'd be on the phone to my ISP that instant!  Do another test and if it's lower than 300kps, you need to call your ISP.  That's not right...

Unless it was because it couldn't accurately read my dial-up, this test didn't do mine accurately. Still, that's a pretty large gap between his download and upload speeds. Mabey he should do a test upload of some sort to see what his real speed is.

According to the site, Lain_EX's internet connection has a download speed twice that of my dial-up, but he has an upload speed that is less than half of my uploads, which are the fastest on dial-up *cough*. Yeah. I might not so quickly count those figures as true, unless, as I stated before, it did my test wrong because I used a different internet connection than it expected.

My ISP, which was 5mbps download had just upgraded their infrastructure recently and offered a free speed boost to all of their customers of 50%, plus a number of other new free features, including "Powerboost", which basically gives me an extremely high bandwidth for a short period of time (advertised as 5-20 seconds) during downloads, useful for websites and other relatively small files.

The big downside is that my upload speed wasn't upgraded at all.  I have pretty quirky-looking results now! :p
(http://www.speedtest.net/result/423140307.png) (http://www.speedtest.net)

I'm loving the 16+mbps download speed though, I've never seen numbers like this before in my life! :D

The only problem with the Powerboost feature:
It's awesome and it's fast but..it's inconsistantly fast. :p

(http://www.speedtest.net/result/423277558.png)

15mbps one time, 24mbps this time; it all depends on local usage, I imagine.  Either way, I won't complain at 24 mpbs when I'm paying for a 5mbps connection. ;)

I would kill for a faster upload speed sometimes though.. :p

My latest one:

(http://www.speedtest.net/result/650377903.png) (http://www.speedtest.net)

What you need to understand though is I scaled back, not being at my apartment very much to a RoadRunner Lite package.  I get this internet and about 15 channels of tv for $42 a month.  Its much better than $100 for more when I'm not here to use it often.  I'm more than pleased with these results.  The speed decrease is noticeable (with video namely) but saving $70 per month makes it that much better. ;)  Internet at my workplace is blazing fast...faster than I ever got at home with a wired connection.

This is my current wireless speed while downloading about 200gb worth of torrents:

(http://www.speedtest.net/result/1296462528.png)

It really hurts my speed when I'm downloading torrents.  I've tried a million things to fix the problem, but I don't think it's on my end.  Stupid Comcast.  

And Petrie I know you posted a long time ago and things might have changed but, Comcast sucks but if you can get it you should.  $42/month is a lot to pay for such horrible speeds and only 15 channels.  With Comcast you could probably get around 60 channels and 4Mbps for $39.99.  Not to mention I'm sure your bandwidth is limited to like 1GB per month or some other ridiculous cap. :rolleyes:

And Pokeplayer - your connection isn't that great because of your upload speed.  You can tell I have a much better connection type by the fact that my ping is 14ms and my download/upload ratio is much better.  That's why my connection scores an A- while your grandparent's is a solid B.  Of course, I pay a lot more than your grandparents do so their connection isn't that bad for what they're paying.

This is my parent's house, and I'm on the wireless connection.  I'll do my own apartment later tonight with a wired connection.  My parents have the better package than me, so this ought to be faster.

As for Comcast...no go.  Time Warner has a monopoly on the area.  There is absolutely nothing else available where I live.

I've looked at different internet connections a while back and they usually never went above 10 Mb/s. The ones that did, if there were any, were pretty expensive.

Most clients at hotels use it for email and contact stuff, not streaming films so I wouldn't expect a hotel to provide a killer connection.

For those who seem to gripe about 5 mbps download speeds and 500kbps upload speeds, realize not everyone lives in an area with more than one provider, if they can even get good service at all.

Due to a freak windstorm that caused multiple blackouts yesterday, my internet connection at my place is SUPER SLOW!  As such, I'm here at my work to get a connection.  Tested it for the last half hour and it seems to be a good speed.  About to see the results.

(http://www.speedtest.net/result/5495967717.png) (http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/5495967717)

Not bad!  Should be good enough for YouTube.  However, I find it interesting that both upload and download are so close to one another.  So often you find them quite far apart.

Edit: Was back at my place for a bit and it's still bad.  Pictures took FOREVER, when videos finally start, I get static with the sound and I could barely load Speedtest.  I don't think I need to test it to see how bad it is.

Hopefully things will be better tomorrow! -_-

Internet in the United States absolutely sucks.  There's been absolutely NO innovation in the last 10 years.  I get worse numbers now than I did 9 years ago in 2007:

For everything I think I'm paying 135 a month and my internet is pretty good.
However the fact remains that I'm paying MORE for internet than I did 9 years ago, I have the exact same ISP, and my speeds are WORSE.  Technology usually increases by around 5x in 10 years, and halves in price.  So I should be paying $25/month for 150Mbps speeds.  Instead I'm paying $60/month for less than 30Mbps.  

The US has the worst internet infrastructure of the entire developed world.  Sure we're better than Africa, but that's to be expected.  Countries like Switzerland, Ireland, Germany, England, and Iceland are about 10 years ahead of us when it comes to their internet infrastructure.  

Thank GOD for Google Fiber.  If they can get that across the US quick enough, it will put Comcast and the like out of business.  Google Fiber is 1,000Mbps internet for LESS than I'm paying now.  Now THAT'S what I'm talking about! :smile

One interesting experience I had with Comcast back then was how I could call them up and had my friends there give me the latest deals at no extra cost.  Nowadays, my friends are gone and I can't get that privilege.  Oh well! -_-

Anyways, my internet returned and here's the results.

(http://www.speedtest.net/result/5500763341.png) (http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/5500763341)

I too hope for Google Fiber one day.  It looks like it's coming to a nearby area in my home state soon.  Might think about moving there in a few years if Google Fiber hasn't hit here yet.  Like my apartment and everything, but I hope for an actual house one day.

Anyways, another thing I found out with my work's connection.  YouTube won't work.  I'm not kidding here.  I keep getting an error message for it.  On top of that, Google itself refuses to work because it's an open wifi connection.

I can at least be happy that Netflix runs on it.  Oh, and so everyone knows, I also have Amazon Instant Video with Prime.  It's actually quite good for $99 a year.

Nice! I guess living just outside of the nation's capital has its perks, maybe?

I know, right? And to think I've been taking it for granted! I would certainly notice if it dropped, though, because I have to move around some pretty huge files :lol

My local ISP is doing a wicked promo on their new high-end internet plan. It's cheaper than my old rate and the speed is nuts!

It's basically impossible to get internet here at all for $40 / month. :p

The cheapest plan I'm aware of around here is $55 / month. It's 5 Mbps.
I'm only paying $25 more than that for 180 Mbps. I'm okay with that.  :D

Yeah it's a really dumb tier system. :p

Yeah I know Canada in some parts barely has wifi there. Fifty five isn't to bad I guess but you're not getting the speed you have now. So glad you're okay with paying more.

I noted only one curve lit up on the connection while I'm at my parents house and decided to test it.

(http://www.speedtest.net/result/6519488126.png) (http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/6519488126)

Something's wrong!  I'm switching to the other one.  I'll edit the results.

EDIT: MUCH BETTER! :)

(http://www.speedtest.net/result/6519496202.png) (http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/6519496202)

My parents have 3 connections.  An old one they don't use anymore, a main one and a secondary one.  The first is the main one, the second is the secondary one.  Looks like I'm using the secondary one today.

I know this was for Landbeforetimelover, but I can give an answer.

Essentially, what ping is, is the reaction time of your connection. The lower the ping, the better. It means your connection is very responsive.

Zero-point, do you know how many rural areas here in the US would kill for that kind of speed?  Most rural areas are stuck with either dial-up or worse, HughesNet. *shudders*

^ I can attest. When I’m not at college, I’m in a semi-rural area outside one of the main cities in my state, and the best Internet service we can get isn’t even as good as what zero-point has (albeit WAY better than dial-up or HughesNet, which are indeed the only options in many parts of my state) :sducky

I'm living in a small apartment in San Francisco. The internet is constantly shutting out and I have to leech my neighbor's NETGEAR.

I'm glad I once posted in this thread so I can now compare it to my modern setup. Eight years later I've moved across four different states, two different countries and around 9 different cities, and have finally settled down as an archivist/video editor who uploads hundreds of GB of files daily, so I needed kickass internet. 2013 me would be so jealous!
