420kbit. Is that fast?

rymus

not too shabby Hobbes. It's brilliant considering I'm only getting half that at best.

Booster

407 here.

tomk

420Kbps would give you a download speed of 52.5KBytes per second, which is about as good as RADSL gets (from any supplier).

Good idea, I think the speedtest results will be more representative of the problems if we run them between 6-12pm???

BKtje

did it 5 times, got between 495 and 503kbit tho thats ADSL not RADSL.

Chad ghostal

im on iol in cork.

hairball

tuxx:...about the past month man..I've been getting everything from 65kbps to 412kbps.....very frustrating....and usually it was on the bad side of 200

Hmmmmm......looking like I spoke too soon.....just ran 4 tests

Test 1: 203kbps

Test 2: 283kbps

Teast3: 320kbps

Test4: 246 kbps



Time is 19:12

TheGreatOne

Download speeds on UTV have never been to serious of an issue, I usually get between 35 and 40KB/S (whats that, about 290-380kbps?). Its the ping speeds that have always let them down, now more than ever. If they can get them on par with IOL, I think they would have an allround superior product on offer.
