What's your internet connection speed?

Post by bassmasta »

"Benheck Forums-
What's your speed?"

I have cable, and I'm just curious. I used to get ~500ms pings, but they've dropped luckily.

thanks bic

1.7 meg down / 400k up DSL. Fine for browsing but I wish we had a better upload rate so I could get more players on my Hamachi game server simultaneously. :(

Whoops. I edited the first post and the poll went away. Can you bring it back?

Can a mod poll this?

3mbps down / 512kbps up AT&T DSL connection at home.

At school I have ludicrous speed. Best speedtest I've run has gotten 94mbps down and 52 up, but it varies a lot based on load. I've hit 11.5MB/s downloading stuff. :mrgreen:

now if only I didn't have a dumb 250gb cap, that would be awesome internet.
And what's up with the poll? There are two entries for everything...

I think our advertised speed is 8mbps, I usually get a little more. Ping is usually lower, just depends on the time and which server I use.
Also, poll=WTF?

Yeah. And as to the poll, I think I deleted the first poll then somehow it came back. Weird.

I have an idea. Lets make this a competition. Lets see who has the fastest internet connection on Benheck and then we crown that person king of the internets!

Best result a while ago but to a different server:

Whenever I download something, I can pull 3MB/sec burst rates and steady anywhere 2+MB the rest of the time. I wish FiOS was offered around here. I don't mind the bad upload speed though. I don't seed anything or do a lot of uploading.

Well I did this twice because for some reason it didn't copy the link the first time. I might post again. I occasionally use my cellphone's 3G with my laptop so I'll post what speeds I get with that.
