Unfortunately, I'm stuck in the stone age with good ol' 56k. ._.;

One of these centuries I'll get cable. So far it seems like this site is still pretty speedy, even for someone as slow as me. I just have to wait several minutes if it's a picture thread, but I'm generally doing more than one thing anyway on the computer...

Glorious 100Mbit/s. Oh how I love you.

Since WhoIs.com told me that ostan-collections.net points to a French server, I also tried some French speedtests, yielding anything from 200 to 700 kbit/s, depending on which test I took.

I'll redo the test later this month after I use up my monthly download quota - I get capped at 64/64 kbit/s after 6 GB of download.

Advertised as being 7Mbit/sec down, 512Kbit/sec up, so they're close to meeting what they promise.

Oh, and the site loads blazingly fast for me.

I think mine is a 512k.

I tried that speed test on the first page. I tried areas in the US, and got around 700-800kb in downloading. Then I tried the Philippines and got 462kb.

Hughesnet home basic is rated at 768kb/s down 128kb/s up, actual transfer normally tops out around 150kb/s download.

Though I get cut off if I download more than 200MB every 24 hours, which totally sucks. Thank god I can use the college network.

Wtf is up with bandwidth limitations anyway? There isn't even such a thing around here.

Basically it means your ISP is too cheap to upgrade their infastructure to actually provide the service they are selling you, so you get a nice bang on the draw for a little while and then they cut you off. Their reason being that a minority of their customers make up the majority of the usage on their networks.

I say as long as the routing access permissions are set the same at their end, it doesn't matter how much I use I still have to share it equally with all other users of their network. Meaning that their 'claim' is utter bull, they just don't want me to be able to get my money's worth out of it nor do they want to upgrade their systems to actually provide the bandwidth they promise for an extended period of time.

wow, i can only dream of a 10Mb broadband!

I get anywhere from 6mb to about 10mb
