Who's Got The Slowest Internet Connection In This Forum!!

Well to start off, I didn't really know where to write about this so I thought why not do it in my own blog that way I don't get unnecessay comments telling me why i posted this here and not there..

Anyway I was wondering ever since I had read this thread yesterday(I mean my time that is GMT +5:30). There were guys cribbing(the guys from the US) that they had slow internet connections compared to Japan, so I'd just like to ask what's the speed of the internet connection that you guys are using.. I'd also like to know if anyone in this forum is connected to the net like I am (I am currently connected to the net via my cellphone. I use internet service that my cell service provider offers and using my cell as a modem I connect to the net through my laptop ). Due to this procedure I get a speed of only 115.2 Kbps.

My question to all the people who use similar methods (or otherwise) to connect to the net is what is the speed you on? I feel that currently I am on the slowest connection in this forum. So anyone with a slower connection??

Not that bad i think. my average download speed is around 400kb/s and i don't upload anything.
 
this is from my office..



well it so happens that out here in india the uploads speeds are faster than download speeds :wacko: which is just the opposite for most of you guys it seems lol..

*shock* It's actually higher than it was last time. My average download speed is around 60kb/s. ;)[/quote]

Bahahaha your stuck with FUCKING SHIT BigAir too! Our uni campus uses it and I have no other choices - $40 for 20gb at what should be 1000kb conn. Basically 9-12am is the only time I get less than 150 ping on Brisbane servers (I'm at the Gold Coast <.<).

Seems like I have one the better speeds here (in this thread ofcourse)


EDIT: WTH? I'm supposed to have a 20-22 mbit connection. Maybe it's because of the server...
 


standard florida internet. I'm getting a 15mbit connection eventually so I can upload faster. I have a 7mbit connection right now, but speedtest always says it's faster for some reason.

edit: ping test

Show off O_O
 
man i fail to understand why the guys with super fast (express speeds IMO) connection speeds are posting here I wanted to see whose speed was the slowest -_- ..
 
I wonder how my dl/upload speed would be if there was a test server closer to me. :P
 
@IzzehO: yeah .au seems to have very bad broadband atleast according to a friend. My friend lives in Brisbane and his internet connection was pretty expensive and for some reason he could only download 40GB per month (and 20GB of theese 40GB was during night time) and after theese 40GB they "capped" his connection. 40GB aint that much..
 
man i'd trade capping off of the speed anyday to the policy they have here.. where if you exceed your download limit for the month lets take fryguy's fren's example here (40GB) you have to pay a certain amount for every MB after the 40GB.. Also out here (i don't know if its the same elsewhere) just opening up a webpage is considered a download so one can just imagine when you have a download cap...

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
    for people with beefy hands.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    lmao
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
