I had a terrible Internet connection back a few years ago, so I spent more time watching anime and playing RPGs during that era

Nowadays, I'm on boards, YouTube, etc. more often, since I have a much better Internet connection...

...Campus internet can be that slow? Ouch.

Mine's ridiculously fast. I'll have to run Speedtest on it tomorrow, thuogh I've hit 3/4 MB/sec during downloads before.

It works fine for me, but I'm jealous of all those people that can, say, load 10-minute youtube videos in under a minute.

And we have my home internet, which pales in comparison to my work internet. Which is why I spend most of my time online in my office at work.

Speed Test and the laptop at work didn't agree.

Now that I'm home....

My upload really sucks. Takes forever for me to upload a short video to YouTube.

BTW, if you didn't want us (Jul) to know where you live, we do now.

I don't like it when people do this to just about anything.

Food, living, anything.

Some people have it worse off then let's say "You" (Not specifically saying YOU. But you know what I mean) do. So take it from Pen and Teller:

Why is anyone fighting food advance? A very small percentage of the world's population is fortunate to have the luxury of turning down food. The rest of the world spends most of its time trying to get any food. [...] We need to spread all the technology all we can, so all people everywhere can deal with the problem of "too much food". We can't start getting picky because we've got enough food- that's just self-centered and racist. Unless you and yours are starving, YOU need to SHUT - THE FUCK - UP!

Paulguy's Post configuration

Works well enough for me. I honestly only wish I had a better upload speed.

Funny, redid it twice and the download speed went down each time, while upload stayed constant.

Satisfied with it, too.

So why are we comparing all this?

How the hell did you get it to read 0ms ping?

Nope. I've just been fighting to get a DSL connection for five and a half years now, and at long last it happened.

Anyway, I retested with another server:

What I want to know is why it seems quicker to Scranton than Philadelphia. And why it's reporting 1200/1150 mile distances, when they're not even out of the state (and I'm very close to Philadelphia, too)

...Or why my ISP field is blank.

My college internet is fucking incredible.

Wired:

Wireless:

Both are better than my DSL, so mass downloadings are still best done while out.. but it's still ridiculously fast compared to what I'm used to.

Let's try this at work on the wireless:

I'll be visiting my mom tomorrow, so maybe I can test out her DSL too.
