What's your connection speed? Test and link!

Comcast, still pretty bad for gaming compared to DSL 3-4 years ago.

sprint DSL threw wireless...would the horrid latency have anything to do with me bein on wireless?

I went for distance Pennsylvania to Kiwi.

Disappointingly, you got 207 ms for the latency. That's high for cable and DSL. Even my 56k modem can go lower than that. Cable and DSL usually is no higher than 90 ms.

That's actually enough to be thinking about getting a different ISP, IMO.

Appears to be routing problems. But may be temporary.

I'm just concerned, because that was for only 100 miles.

I would understand somewhat if the test server was located in the pacific zone.

1. I can either stay with my cable or go to verizon dsl. dsl is slower that crap out here.

Not bad for a university connection. Too bad it slows down a lot.

 

[ccb056]

Lucky you, your university doesn't throttle the upload per host.

Do you have daily quotas? At Purdue, you only get 5GB per day.
