;D Dont forget these results are from an 8 year old PC with only a 1.3 processor. HP Pavillion 710
http://www.testmy.net/tools/test/results.php About 1971 kbps
Will try to get more from PC upstairs when I get the chance. This old machine is still going strong and downloading files from 200-300kbps. On 2MB Broadband. Does the job for general workloads.
cheers
ps. on Speednet it was 1972 kbps with upload of 191 kbps. They are not always truly accurate but give a ball park figure
cheers

Shared Internet connection, people always on and continuously downloading, so wouldn't nearly reflect my actual speed.

;D We are all in the same situation. When I posted, daughter was playing games on laptop. and better half was downloading photos from my camera. All on wireless connections. Yes I suppose if I were on my own and hooked up directly to wired broadband my results would be better. Lets see them Quantum.lol
cheers

Well I live with 3 girls in a house this year, so between music, videos and loads of unlicenced anime (stuff just come out in Japan and subtitled by fans, as it's not been licenced over here, it's not copyright infringement to download and watch) there's a lot of downloading going on. Our network connection is completely wired at the moment, but when I get a job I'll be looking at setting up a wireless router, so we can have either wired or wireless. I set up a wireless network at my mums place, they're not the easiest things in the world to set-up stabily, not a big fan of them.

I have 8mbps down 384kbps up... and my ISP has now tried to tell me that I uploaded 8GB yesterday and therefore gone over my limit... I think Quantum will back me up here in saying that it is not possible to upload 8GB in a day through a 384kbps connection! >:(
