So I went on speedtest.net on the school's computer.

[War]

Are you sure you can handle it?



/facepalm

That should say

ISP: America Online.

 

[War]

ISP: Lol dial-up

No wonder it takes like 5 minutes just to load the main page. (GBAtemp.net)

 

[da_head]

at least the upload speed is decent :S

 

[TrolleyDave]

That should say

ISP: America Online.

Not trying to jack your thread War but need to ask Law something, sorry!

You on AOL as well? My speeds have been a 1/4 of what they should be the last couple of days, you having similar problems?

Yeah, except it's been happening for a lot longer than a couple of days. A few other people I know are having similar issues.

 

[Doomsday Forte]

Fear me, I HUNGER!!

I've never really had a problem with them til this week, plus it's one of the few unlimited download providers left in the UK. We've had a BT Business Broadband line put in as well but I can't access my bleedin newsgroup provider through, it just tells me it can't find the host whenever I try to connect.

 

[Satangel]

I'll try to test it when I'm in school, will post

!

 

[B-Blue]

[Sephi]

Not terrible for a school network.

/facepalm

dont know what school you go to but at Carson High School we always got atleast

16000+ kb/s download and 6000+ upload

 

[Minox]

I once tried to measure my school's connection and I got some very interesting results:
Approximately 9000kb/s in download speed, but 80000kb/s in upload speed

 

[xcalibur]

moozxy linked me his uni's and they got like 54k down

 

[TheSpade]

I'm actually shocked with my speed considering it's a low-tier cable speed. Guess I'm still used to DSL.

 

[arctic_flame]

My school's bandwidth is excessively throttled and filtered, leading to shitty ping times and download speeds. However, using the DMZ network leads to ungodly speeds, thanks to the fact the have a dedicated fibre-optic line direct to the nearest exchange.
