I usually get around 150kb/s
I used to have this internet but then Comcast advertised an offer my parents couldn't deny. TV, Internet, & Phone for $100 for TWO years. I really didn't care about TV & Phone but now here's my internet:



When downloading something from a big server (Like Microsoft Site) I get 2MB/s. (max so far)

~ Jon
Oooh, I might have to try to get my mom to switch then. We have AT&T for out internet and DirectTV for our TV. No home phone though.

I have At&t for Phone/Internet and Directv for TV too. x_x I heard Comcast caps bandwidth though. But I'm thinking of switching to Clear because at&t is starting bandwidth capping in May. Fuck at&t. Shitty and expensive for only 150 k/bs and now bandwidth caps?!?

Off topic:
Bandwidth caps WILL kill the internet! Just wait...

I've now created GBAtemp's Official Speed Wave!!! Just create a speedtest.net account and join the speed wave. This allows us to share, compare and see who has the fastest (and slowest) internet speeds. It also lists achievements similar to Steam or PSN.

If this idea is allowed and accepted by the mods then could this also be put onto the front page so people can see where to go? I hope this catches on.

BTW My speed:

@Gameking-4 post your speed on GBAtemp's speed wave (see my sig). All the results can then be easily compared, including isps, regions, countries, ping, download/upload, even what browser you're using.

lol. mind you Haddad
QUOTEHaddad or Hadad (Semitic: "blacksmith") is a common family name and personal name.

I hope this won't be too much of a problem in the future.

Please remember people to change your username, we have a lot of random numbers...

And does anyone know why my name is showing twice? I think it had something to do with me reseting my location.

hmm dunno, we pay 50% for taxes and stuff, and we have fiberglass cables, so I guess that counts.
Btw, no one tested from japan then?

Wanna see something funny? My connection is technically better than FiReFoX_7, yet I get a lower grade. Oh, grade is probably based around location and speed and not general speed.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Mostly for big purchases, I want it in my hands before I pay. Like a tv, I trust picking it up myself, before I'd trust it being sent thru mail/delivery. (Broken screen, etc) But yea if I can order online, then pickup at store is ok, but not all places offer that.

    Thing is, if you break it driving back to your house, it's your fault. But if the delivery driver damages it, it's not your fault.
