You guys make me jealous of the Time Warner monopoly they have on this area of NY.  You can't get anything else.

Really seems to depend on the server used and where the file is coming from.

For real, I can upload up to 22kbps, and Download up to 180~200 kbps. My connection for downloading and surfing is okay, but the upload speed is horrible! It takes hours just to upload a 100MB-Archive, for example! I hate it because I really would like to upload many many things, but I can't!

Oh dam!  I guess it makes sense for a university to have good numbers but it feels so much slower then this

Edit:  I just tried it three more times and its all over the place.  I don't remember exact numbers but download was 22 up to 99 then down to 37.  Upload stayed around 7 or 8 the whole time though

Whoa! OK...if you guys thought your net connection was bad...wait until you get a load of my results


This was taken at a period when it's supposed to be a low traffic flow. And to think that I actually try playing online games on my PS3 with this kinda result!  :lol

Here's my speed on wireless right now:



I don't know why, but it recommended this server in South Dakota.  I guess there isn't one in Minnesota anymore.  :unsure:

Jay that's the first time I've seen an upload speed be quicker than a download speed.

My latest one:



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.
