Lot of cable companies have been doing speed upgrades..

GT2000 · 09-16-2005, 05:13 AM

Cox is pushing hard to upgrade their speeds in their systems with Verizon's FIOS hitting the market in certain areas (it's operational in a few parts of this region). I finally got my upgrade over night, it's 15Mbps down and 2Mbps up...very sweet indeed...

Here's a test off this one site running a Gigabit network, very good speedtest page.

TCP/Web100 Network Diagnostic Tool v5.2.1e

Checking for Middleboxes . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Done

The slowest link in the end-to-end path is a 10 Mbps Ethernet subnet

I need to go download something just to see how it goes....

GT2000 · 09-16-2005, 05:19 AM

Just downloaded something off Fileplanet, peaked at 1.40MB/s, yeah, I'm diggin' this. My upload should peak at around 250KB/s now.

Not bad for a service that would run a non-discounted customer/employee $54.95/mo.

Well, that's pretty standard still really...before the upgrade (and I've been on the premier tier for a year now mind you), I was getting 5.0 down and 768 up. Heh, I could pretty much dump hosting and run TTT off my home server if I wanted now.

shitty cable

Mike · 09-17-2005, 12:02 PM

My up at school used to be incredible, close to 450 kb/sec average for most of my uploads ... and then the network crashed one weekend and ever since then, it's been like ... literally 9kb/sec up. Blows my nuts.

sharkz · 09-19-2005, 10:42 AM

you lucky philly suburbanites

GT2000 · 09-19-2005, 11:34 AM

Yeah, I remember you mentioning that sharkz...I was seriously considering FIOS until they upgraded the cable speeds here, I'm fine now. Although in one locale verizon has offered the 30/5 Mbps line for 55.95 or whatever it was, if they were to standardize it....THEN...it'd be a possibility.
