In before the bucket. Also in before someone tries to explain the difference between a MB and a Mb to lafta.

11/11/2009 8:46:55 PM

i feel so bad for you TWC customers...

11/11/2009 8:58:55 PM

lafta, the results are in Mb (megabit) not MB (megabyte), there's 8 bits per byte, do the math:

13Mb/s download = 1.62MB/s
.36Mb/s upload = 46KB/s

which is pathetic (upload)

IN before someone comes in here with their work or educational (non-home) ISP result

Makes my gametap subscription worth it.

Standard RoadRunner account (not sure what it’s supposed to be, but it’s clearly faster than what they bill it as)

i'm paying for turbo with speed boost :-(

Just disconnected VPN and tried again...

^^^ Lol wut? It's all shown in Mb/s on the site.

There's no direct text to copy. Ya just get a link to a .png like we've been posting on here.

11/11/2009 9:32:55 PM

wow TWC really does suck

11/11/2009 9:48:55 PM

twc rr does suck balls..

please to bring fiber to the freakin RESEARCH TRIANGLE area.. or at least comcast.

Time Warner with turbo boost...

I don't care much about upload speeds (I've gotten around 75 kB/s with some torrents) but download speed could be better (though again, I've gotten around 1.5 MB/s with some torrents)

My work's connection is 2 Mb up, 2 Mb down

That is fucking brilliant.

"put your helmet on, we'll be reaching speeds of 3!"

(bonus points if you know where that's from)

actually you're right, i saw something different, i was copying by typing what i saw
when i saw MB i did a double take, i looked again it was MB
so i say whatever, but now i realize i saw something different

hell i didnt even expect it to be over 6Mb/sec anyways, so seein 13MB or 13Mb is still shocking
its only a factor of 8 off anyways

I've had Fios here in Tampa for 5 years now. We were considering moving and it was a requirement that the new house had Fios available.

^^keep your shorts on
i did see the wrong thing, MB instead of Mb
but the factor of 8 was just a joke

if you dont know the difference than its your own fault

11/11/2009 10:51:35 PM

^^^pretty sad FioS if I can get those same speeds on cable.

apparently there's a Washington University in St. Louis, MO... huh.
