Thanks-- I thought my connection seemed faster..

Is 1,785 Kbps fast for cable, or is that about normal?

That's probably slow. Mine reads 2500 and that is listed as being a fair amount below average.
10/13/2006 06:46:31 PM · #5
Not really that fast... Mine's 6500 down, 600 up, and even then that's not the fastest service...

Good Lord!

Whats your avg dowload speed like?

I use one at Cnet which has nice comparison charts of the different providers. Funny thing there... click refresh in your browser and watch how fast your speed is then!

Fun. At speakeasy, i'm getting 6733 down.
10/13/2006 08:31:23 PM · #10
I didn't realize someone was using the net upstairs when I was running on the laptop. The new numbers are 3700 and 450. Not the fastest, but not bad either.

I had 1 Megabit. I upgraded to "up to 5 megabit", and go 1.3 megabit. Gotta go bust their balls.

Not too bad for the basic DSL service at $26/mo. with sbc.

I just found this site ZDNet for Aussies and my speed came in at 431kbps.
