Post your Speedtest.net Speeds!

31 ms is usually no cause for alarm for almost all connections out there. It's likely that the load on their infrastructure is increasing. Check the latency to your ISP's gateway. If you see a jump in latency there, it could indicate a router/modem issue. You'll likely see very quick responses there, but I'd bet traceroute will show a jump in latency a few hops in.
I wouldn't worry about it until it's consistently over 100-300 ms, unless it's a WISP.

It's just a crappy company that doesn't know what they are doing.
The internet in Italy is so many years behind it's not even funny. This is the best internet you can get if you dont live in a big city like Rome or Milan. It's not even 1mb upload! lol...
And the main company Telecom Italia has a monoply on all installed lines, so even if you have a contract with another company you're still using their lines -_-
The people working there don't even know the standard terms like ping, latency, packet loss.

31 MS to the main hub is bad for online gaming for me...
The lowest I can get to servers in europe is around 50ish MS
NA servers you can bet on 150-250.
When my ping was 14-15ms to the main hub in Milan, I was able to get 21ms server connections practically anywhere in europe without worry.
When playing on NA servers I was getting about 75-90.

i've pretty much completely stopped playing online FPS games because of it.

When I'm in Tokyo, speedtest results ping is always under 10 and alot of the times its like 1ms.
And you can probably imagine download and upload speeds...

Tokyo is very dense and it's generally pretty easy to run high speed when everything's relatively close by. Also, it's Japan and they're fantastic like that. I would imagine Italy is fairly dense too though, so I don't know what their excuse is. Like you say, could just be a lack of knowledge/structure.

You can add lazyness to that list and then you got it right. :p
The country isn't even that big. I would understand if I was like up in the mountains only being able to get 5-20mb download and less than 1mb up, but where I'm currently at there is really no reason for something like Fibre to not be running.
I mean even non to the home would be an improvement, but they don't offer that...
This is the exact same speed and service i was able to get in the mountains as well... lol...

I see that someone else also has the 105Mbps plan. :rockout:

This is on my 5Ghz wi-fi. It's about the fringe of what it can do.

You wont hear me moaning :toast:
 
A chart of hourly runs against a speedtest.net server. Because I was curious how my connection went through the day. It's doing decently.

Just upgrade my fiber to 90/90mbit and looks like my Asus RT-AC66U Router is doing oki for the moment :slap:

Optical Fiber 100Mbps from Barcelona, Catalonia (Spain)
 
A number of years ago before I moved into my current apartment they tore out all the necessary crap for cable internet. Every single other building in the entire city has the option to have Charter which is minimum 60/5. I'm stuck with $40 12/1 and that's the highest available. The building has been out of a contract with Frontier likely for a number of years yet the management hasn't seen restoring functional internet as a priority. If I would have known it was like this I never would have leased it. Thankfully my lease is up end of April. On top of the shitty internet speed, the gateway I currently have is defective making local network transfers cap at 4MB/s on good days.

That sucks bro, out home I get cable, 20/2... compared to this fibre it's disgusting... I am going to miss it..
 
Mine's still the same as my last post :cool:

This is from the office ...

in my home i have 5mbs lease... normal ADSL 2+ ....

I had to cut my rates to 50/10 b/c of stupid data caps... switched to business class to avoid the data caps.

had about a $300+ bill due to the freaking overages.. and that was just for the home account. was another 150 for the shop. but now its about $300 for both since they're both on a business class account now. here's the results for the shop.

unfortunately the cable (as in TV) is so basic on my shop account that i don't even get the freaking weather channel lol

you can see my old results in my sig. It's useless having all that speed if i'm just gonna be capped. Installing a bunch of updates on computers all time eats up that 300GB limit in no time. Especially when you add in Netflix, 2 PS4s, an xbox one, a chrome book, and 4 different cell phones, oh and my steam account. So yea... switching to business class for no cap with somewhat slower speeds was the better option (til Google Fibre comes around)
