...Excuse me ISP?

I get like 200 down and 15 up. Bullshit, huh?
-_-

That's around 25 MB/s download.
Or a whole copy of Animal Crossing on the GameCube a second.

I'm getting around 4.6 MB/s.
That's like one of my assignments per second.
Adjusting for the lag that generally accompanies downloads because why not, I'm averaging a maximum of 1 MB/s. Most websites it's 674 KB/s.

(8 Mbps = 1 MB/s)

I know that 200 down is good, I'm saying that it's BS I only get 15 up, especially since my dad pays nearly $80 a month for the internet + landline phone.. But honestly I do hope that you get better internet soon, and maybe a better router like for example the ones Google makes, they're kinda nice since they do speed tests from the router itself which gives more accurate results for the general speed, not just the connection speed of a specific device. (since the more things you connect to a router, the more the bandwidth tends to get split between them all)

Check your network gears, if you have a router that only capable of outputting 50 Mbps, then you won't get that 300Mbps even if you paid for it.
 
I remember having Comwave internet in an area where it was not provided locally (best for those in Toronto) and let me tell you it sucked it took like two to three minutes to just search things up and online gaming was a no go. So I can identify with your pain regarding the internet connection.

  • Brohann @ Brohann:
    anyone here know how to use METEO?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It's very simple.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Meteo is like an AVI-to-GBA converter. Just drag-and-drop your AVI file in, and then convert.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, like those gba carts that have movies and tv episodes in them?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    But Nintendo's GBA video format is different, being that it uses a custom ROM and chipset for rendering, for like the Shrek and Shark Tale titles. Been undumpable for years and years.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Meteo uses it's own player.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, those roms are dumped currently, right?

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Although it's kinda pointless to download them anyway since you get the movies in horrible quality
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Yep, they are now, but it took a shit ton of RE'ing.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RE = reverse engineering
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, can you remind me what reverse engineering meant pls?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Reverse engineering, to put it simply, is to understand how the software or hardware was made.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Lol someone tried using my email to log into Nintendo
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, is that through trial and error sometimes?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @K3Nv2, did you enter any sus site?
