Well, I think my ADSL is good value for money considering it's essentially free... £10 a month to Talktalk (+ line rental which I'd have to pay whatever) gives me free calls to any landline in about 26 countries (unlimited), really cheap calls to mobiles + 2meg internet (upgrading to 8 in the coming months) with a 40GB a month download limit. Good value, and customer services aren't awful... unless they put you on hold in which case you'll be listening to Ronan Keating!!!

They probably limit your speed to stop people slowing down the net... run it directly from the main server!

Edit: Just realised that your upload speed is way higher! Very wierd... I thought you were talking about the speed being fairly low.

wtf??? T3?

thats 7.3 Megabytes per second FTW???

Isn't that more than 7.3? I work it out as 9.2... 8 bits to a byte, 1024 kilobytes to a megabyte.

Wow...our school has a T1, but the closest server location was 200 miles north, not sure how much of a difference that makes. I think our network is pretty crowded...



edit:
on a different computer, in the same lab, off of the same network switch:


I guess it doesn't help the first one that it was with a Pentium 2 machine...

and with a slightly lower ping, minutes later


Edit:ping keeps changing!

alright, i'll stop..
