Cable modem speed!

[flounder43]

I love my new cable modem service. With P2P, I get continuous, good speed. Rarely, can one server give you the full throughput to test your connection, but with several d-loads, I have seen what this connection does.
Added up, these dloads gave me 205.69 Kb/s.

When I pull patches or service packs from microsoft, it usually stresses my connection.. P2P rarely does, due to it's architecture.

 

[flyingember]

direct connect is the only thing that I use at full speed.

i've been grabbing 30K/sec for the last 8 hours or so

 

[ssgohan434]

me too! my total transfer speed sometimes reaches 2 MB and above, even though my cable is capped at 1.5 MB for some reason.

depends on the connection at the other end ....i used to get about 100-200 on cable and dsl ( i have both i trade off as one sucks)

Isn't cable just swell?

 

[DeathScyth_Hell]

Whats P2p???

 

[Warlord2]

person 2 person I think is what that means. I get in the 310KB range on some servers but most of the time dont go over 100KB. I just wish my ping was like it used to be (nobody was on) but other than that cable kicks a$$.

Use that speed test at dslreports.com and thin devide that by I think 7 and you will get KB. That is pretty much what you are capped at.

p2p = peer to peer, it's a method of file sharing in which there is no central server that you connect to. You simply connect to other people who are sharing files.

God, when i got my dsl i thought i was king, but looking at your speeds, i am sad, i only get 80kb/s not even a meg! If any of you know what the best service provider is, tell me!

 

[Lord Moreira]

I'm in the TRI state area
optimumonline from cablevision is what i use
no contest that it is the best
For 30 or 40 a month depending on if ur a cablevision tv subscriber or not

What do you have?! Quad OC48?! 4 MegaBYTES!?

 

[Lord Moreira]

nop, just kickass cable
if u go to dslreports.com u can check on feedback left by cablevision customers like me
It's really really good
i host 14\16 player sof2 servers with no lag
the closer u live to the tristate area the lower ur pings will be
but overall in the US\canada all 50 to 100ping
europe 150
56kers much much more

 

[Lord Moreira]

if could trade in my crazy download speeds for a lil more upload i would in a heartbeat

 

[engjohn]

What do you have?! Quad OC48?! 4 MegaBYTES!?

What Oni is saying is that you are getting 4 MegaBITS/s NOT 4 MegaBYTES/s

 

[Lord Moreira]

yep 4ooo megabites
the fastest i've downloaded was 1.800 kbytes

 

[xCarne_Asada]

i want cable...darn slow dsl

 

[baqai]

oh gee and we dialup users get happy when we are getting 6k/sec .. sheeesh
