Currently:
PB: Downloading
Brother's PC: Online Games
HackBook: Posting this
Mom Work: Syncing work stuff
Mom Home: WebBrowsing

Not even getting 100 Kbps on anything right now.

The connection is flaking in and out even.

There is a 6 Mbps/512kbps plan for like $5 more We're on the 3/384 plan currently, so we are getting what we are paying for. (Our download is slightly faster than they say)

That's one thing I like about my internet

Your lucky you even have the option to go to Comcast. the only provider around here is Att.. ):
AT&T uses DSL and Comcast uses cable. I don't want my internet getting slowed down when my neigbors are using a lot of it which is what happens with cable. Not with DSL. I get my clamed speed at any time of day when my friends/family with cable report it slowing down during the day.

Pretty slow speed for their fastest on a fiber cable....

Fast by my standards, next tier up(15Mbps) runs close to $100 in Canuckistani money.




my net, fairly consistent and close to the advertised 10 down and 1 up. It's just too bad that Canadians get so shafted on net service.

Finally, a pingtest server in Sydney. And the results are good :D TPG ADSL2+ And just for fun, I did a test to an LA pingtest server, since most of our data comes from the west coast of the USA.

Did a speedtest as well, except those were pretty bad. DL was varying from 10 to 15.5 Mb/s, but the ping was steady at 20ms.
