Not to rain on your parade, but I've borne witness to speeds nearing 12MB/s before.

Mind you, this was at a university with a high speed internet connection (100Mbps) connected to another user from the same place over DC++. =P I've never seen anything faster than that, though I suppose downloading something from myself would be a sufficient test of that.

But yeah, congrats on the speed that I'll never ever get while at home in a billion years.

When all is at peace on the internets and usenet I can max out about 2.2MB sometimes reaching 4MB. Usually it hovers or 756kbs to 980kbs. This is on stupid comcast home connection.

Anything under 6MBytes/s makes me bored, and anything under 2MBytes/s make me want to die

Guess I'm just a common Swedish person spoiled with my 100Mbit connection that I've had for a few years (before that I had.. only.. 10Mbit). Pretty good for 25 euro a month

    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
