ordos45 Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 I just have a 56k connection at home, but at the uni I have a T-3 line ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terror Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 My downstream is 1,6 megabit. Upstream I'm not sure of. I think something like 512 kbit. Maybe a bit less. I'm not sure because my original speed has been upgraded a couple of times.I started at 256 kbit up/64 kbit down. now that is over 6 times as fast and i'm not paying anything more than before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew Posted August 15, 2005 Share Posted August 15, 2005 Currently wireless internet, which is not set up to get the highest speed, as my satellite is in my bedroom and not at a window facing the other satellite.According to a speed test I did, I get262 kbps down64 kbps upBut when at uni and on the land line high speed it's about twice as fast. The ISP Eastlink recently doubled their top speeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
