Get on my level

Lol, and when I'm NOT torrenting (Forgot I had that downloading)
http://www.speedtest.net/result/2481459173.png
This is my national grade: F- (2%)
Whoo hoo, fuck this shitty internet. Fastest download speed I've ever gotten is 256kbps
A F-!!!!!!!!!!
That is impressive! Hahaha.
But don't even worry, I probably won't even have internet when we move haha.

Not sure why my ping is 20, it's usually ~5.
You and your download speed........Quote:

I'd trade some of that download for upload speed.
One time it went to 300Mb/s. I'll try and find the screenshot. But that only lasted for two days.Quote:

I'm thinking about getting that google fiber once I relocate back to New York.
That fucking upload, hahaha.Quote:

Jesus fucking shit. I would back-up all of my shit if I had 100Mbps upload.
What happens when I exhaust my allocated data allowance:

That\'s what happens to me if someone is my house is downloading.Quote:

No choices for faster internet here. Guess it's not the worst.
your isp is called.... cox?Quote:

Got an F+ with 4.1mbps download. :(
Oh well. It\'s fast enough for gaming.
My god, I hate how they always offer 20 down and 1 up, I would rather have 20 up than 20 down. I would never lag.
I'm pretty sure games download more data than they upload, e.g. the position of every other player in a server being downloaded versus only your position being uploaded.Quote:

Well in most instances the average consumer would require far faster download rates then they would update rates (which is why they throttle the two, because there's only so much combined bandwidth the systems can handle), so it makes sense. However, at least in Australia there are certain ISPs that will allow you to have some control over the ratio of how much of each is throttled. i.e. the company I used to work for had greater upload then download speeds (as arranged with the ISP), because we'd spend most of our time developing locally and pushing up to remote servers.
edit: also, new billing period, back in the game!

I get the technological restriction of how download+upload can't both be 20mbps if you only have 20mbps bandwidth possible, but I'm not sure as to why you can't have 20 in either one as needed, such that if you were uploading without downloading, you'd upload at 20mbps. If you were both uploading and downloading, 10mbps each, and if you were just downloading, 20mbps download.
i.e. IDK why they throttle the down/up speeds individually instead of the combined down/up speed.
A lot of it actually does have to do with the market. Like I said, your average consumer is going to want faster downloads then uploads, so they can roll that as as the bulk/standard plan. The 1% are going to be for services like data centers, web/email servers etc., where the ISPs know they can offer a 'premium' service for an additional price.Quote:

At the apartment.
I get my speed capped at 200gb. I believe America has recently started doing the same.
Hmmm that sucks. How fast do you go through that?Quote:

Yeah that's a ton of data. What did you do to use it all so quickly?Quote:
