speakeasy seattle Download Speed: 11060 kbps (1382.5 KB/sec transfer rate) Upload Speed: 1614 kbps (201.8 KB/sec transfer rate)     And this was all at 530pm.... I'm very impressed with the Toyko number. You MUST test further away than down the fucking street.... For you idiots, this is about 2.5MB down and 200KB up. |

Hey Filthy and all other Shaw users. If you are on the Extreme -I then it comes with "Powerboost" wich increses your DL for the first 10MB of a file, so in a case such as this it appears we have a higher connection speed then we do. Sustained connection will be back around 1000kb/s but for the first 10MB we get Nitro speeds  |

LMAO, well, I pissed off the local ISP guys this week. My father bitched at the guy for crappy download and upload (mostly cause his porn was getting ruined) because we were getting our downloads and uploads capped. (Sucked for me cause i built a computer for someone who wanted Ubuntu on there, but i couldnt download the freakin' .iso file.) Anyway, so the router they gave my father was a POS, so i used mine, guy hassled me for that, saying that then he cant access the admin on router remotely. Got all bent outta shape, then told me he only uses the best equipment (it was a netgear from Walmart) and that if i have issues with speeds, call him and he'll try to help. He also told me there is only ONE T1 for all three ISP in the county (population as of year 2000: 12934) So yeah, he said he had no control over how people have their bandwidth set. Then asked me not to screw with that either, so people arent calling him all day about lack of speed still. So, even if I switch to Embark (Sprint) DSL, Its still going to be about the same as the wireless. SO i guess i'm screwd unless i want to drive 45 minutes to work every day. Which means costs more for cable up in the city AND have to put more gas in the tank.... ...they got me by the balls...  |

Have you guys heard about the new speeds in Quebec city via Videotron? They're talking 50mbs. Due to proprietary technology etc. it looks like the rest of the country will be a while before we get it.
peace. s
