Got my fibreoptic BB: woohoo

[Bikerdude]

 

Now, anyone got any idea how to stress it out :-)

The only thing I have found to push my internet is steam, everything else seems to sit at 4-5mb/s

We are.... yeah, envious. Bastards!

[Sotha]

Ping 18ms, download 8.7Mb/s, upload 0.8 Mb/s.

 

The good side is that it the up/download amount is not limited, which is the standard in my country.

[Bikerdude]

@Godwell, blimey, what type of connection do you have..?

 

@Obs, where the hell are you in Germany, out in the sticks like..?

 

@Lux, don't be the price of fibre/cable is coming down all the time. I only got this as it was only £10 more a month thqan I was paying but 4x faster down and 10x up.

 

The upshot is my fast connect will benefit the mod as I will be buying a synology nas box and becoming a 3 official mirror to host of the FM's

[Baal]

I'm roughly in the range of obsttortes speed. And I consider that fast, compared to what I had just a couple of years ago.

I have fiber as well but keep in mind my internet is not only for pleasure but also work as I work from home and need a really fast connection

[Obsttorte]

I use an internet stick. Were I live we mostly have glass fibre, which is too expensive for the respective companies, so it just lies under the ground unused. I must add that I had a bad connaction today. Sometimes it is much better. It mainly depends on the server I'm loading from and the daytime.

[AluminumHaste]

LOL 200 miles and only 8 ms.

The speed is capped at 100Mbit, but the connection is 1Gbit. Soon to be 10Gbit, well soonish.

[PranQster]

I'm even jealous of Stumpy.

[Bikerdude]

That's a business line by the looks of it.

Yeah that was from work

[woah]

My connection spend 10 minutes on "Selecting best server based on ping" and then I gave up. $90 / month for this (plus "regulatory taxes," they must have had a good laugh when they decided to insert this line into everyone's bill). It gets worse every year.

 

'mericuh internet

[someTaff]

Where do you get these insane figures!?

8-0

I got 10/1,5 mb/s unlim at 10$ a month

[Professor Paul1290]

[STiFU]

Also from work (TU Dortmund University)

[Lydecker]

Work, middle of the day. Disappointing figures, should be same speed on up and down... Maybe the test server is not capable enough

 

 

At home, I have 50/8mbps connection, soon to upgrade to 100+/20mbps.

V Fast wireless is the only option here in our village of Mersham Kent and luckily we fall on the edge of their area. Before i was getting a paltry 1 mbps down with BT , now 9.80 mbps down and 1.46 up but I think we should be able to double that if we up the package.good enough for me though , the BT one was unusable.

[raymeld]

May I be rude and ask what everyone does with these phenomenal speeds I can only dream at?

[STiFU]

This is my home connection.

[161803398874989]

Up higher than down. Is this real life?

 

Here's mine:

 

 

This is on peak trafic time (18:20). It goes up to maybe 8.5/0.85 in the calmer hours. Upgrading next week or so.

Not much really, but in my case I can upload stuff for the mod that much faster,
