Not a bad showing for 40Mbps advertised.. the new BT fiberoptic network in uk seems to be much much better than the virgin media fiberoptic in my personal experience (i have both at this address im living now) | ||

And I pay 50$ a month for this. Most DL's I get an average of 900 KB to 1 MB actual download speeds. | ||

Or is it just cus this is TL, and we're all starcraft/computer lovers, and so tend to have better internet? And I thought Korea was the best in the world, or is there a difference between broadband speed and "internet" in general? | ||

not bad for the arse-end of the planet, but more upstream speed would be nice... | ||

I can for example get 100Mbit + speeds inside my own country but am happy when I get 10Mbit cross-Atlantic. If they take that into account then countries like South Korea faces serious problems in comparisons. | ||

That's not a surprise when you're sharing a line with a few hundred or thousand people. What exactly is the problem? I live in the dormitory, full time, so i have access do academic internet at home, because thsi is my home. The measured values are real. When you have a commercial provider, you also share a big line with thousands of people. Where is the difference? | ||

It's not as good as it sounds though, some time in the future they must have developed the capability to use holographic 3d monitors, so lets just say the screens don't render too well on my CRT. | ||

And I thought Korea was the best in the world, or is there a difference between broadband speed and "internet" in general? Seems like most people inside the US have pretty bad connections except for those with university connections etc. Oh and I got 40/40. | ||

The measured values are real. When you have a commercial provider, you also share a big line with thousands of people. Where is the difference? Universities are specifically setup to have ridiculous internet, and it helps that everyone is geographically clustered together on campus. When you have commercial providers, and they have miles upon miles upon miles of feeder lines running all over the place through towns and cities, it will definitely make a difference. Universities are always going to get insane results. I'm more curious about how various commercial companies perform against each other (in my case, specifically for the USA - I'm happy to see my company has most of the highest results). | ||
