I couldn't get an accurate measurement from any of the three nearest servers to my location (Columbus, Radnor, and Toledo, OH.)

Suffice it to say that I'm supposed to have about 15 Mbit/s down and . I got wildly different results from all three servers (as low as 5.68 and as high as 14.88 downstream, though uploading was constant at about 1.08.)

Not sure if the ISP sucks or just the speedtest servers.

What Verizon claims I'm supposed to have: 25mbps down / 15mbps up.

What I seem to have:




The download rate looks close enough, considering. I've gotten >2MBytes/s on a dl before, so I'm not complaining there. The wide difference in the upload speed confuses/annoys me, though. I want what I'm paying for, damnit!

Okay, had nothing to do so I tried again.



At first, I thought it was the same as the first time.

EDIT- Just realised it saves every result. Wow.

Try using 56k for a while and feel true sluggishness.

Or try to not use the Internet (or use very little of it) when uTorrent is running. Anything can literally bomb the connection at that point, so I would have to run down to the basement, unplug the modem, then replug it again. Also, deal with parents who don't fully understand that uTorrent does this, or what uTorrent even is, for that matter.

I've actually got a pretty respectable connection, but the fact they haven't updated the stuff here in years is causing me to begin to be left behind speed-wise.

I seem to have one of the slowest connections here. I used to think that my internet connection was pretty fast, but compared to the others, it doesn't seem like it anymore.

What? I run µTorrent 24/7 and I never experienced it crapping out my internet. :/

I wonder if my Internet was slow because of my wireless connection, actually... I usually have that problem with wireless connections, with Internet, input devices, and other wireless devices

For this reason, I made sure to get a wired keyboard and mouse...

I took this a little while ago for an IRC channel I was in.
I'm content with the result.

I just wonder why I have such a crappy upload.

I blame DSL in general.

Tried AOL now.



...Wait, what?

Ran it again:



...Nearly my DSL's upload? That CAN'T be right. Once more:



...Screw it what the fuck.

I ran a pingtest too:
