home connection

I think work wins.

Not even going to try my home connection ... it's really just pathetic.


This is my desktop at work 10/100 connection (Windows XP):

This is from a machine with a Gigabit connection running Windows Server 2003:

Notice the upload speed.

We have a 45Mbs connection. I'll have to set up a machine outside the firewall sometime and try it.

Interestingly, I got much better results from using a machine further away than the "recommended" server.

Work. I'll do home later. Work has DSL.

Home is a bit faster. Comcast cable.

That's what you get in a 3rd world country with a telecommunications monopoly. :|

LoganSnake 03-06-2008 01:04 PM

My home connection destroys my work connection. Here's work. Will post home when I get there.

Here is mine, pretty bad compared to you guys. Does me being in Canada have anything to do with that?

The numbers on mine went up when I used the faster machine at home.

My house connection, believe it or not, I pay $61.00 a month for this speed.

To be fair, at least you get a metal suit in which you can fly.

blahblah454 03-06-2008 09:08 PM

That is true willravel. I would take a kick ass suit with pulse weapons in my palm than a fast internet connection.

When I first got dsl, I got the 768 kbps package. I like that the speed has doubled and they haven't raised the price. :D

I think I pay $35 a month for this or something. I'm really going to miss it when I move.. no high-speed (other than Sprint wireless or phone as modem, $60 a month! Blech!) where I'll be going.

Home, Comcast Cable, 5 computers share this connection. The one tested is mine.

Not too bad, though the connection speed fluctuates quite a bit, and I get quite different results from different servers.

Jinn 03-08-2008 11:52 AM

Finally got around to doing my home connection:

http://www.speedtest.net/result/243863157.png


This was my work one, again..
http://img238.imageshack.us/img238/9595/redactedvj1.png


And yet, somehow, inexplicably.. my home connection "feels" faster. It's an interesting thing to note that my ping is 1/3 of my work connection, even if the connection itself only supports half the bandwidth.

Which, considering it's wireless and it's provided for FREE here in the barracks... that ain't too bad of a connection.:)

LoganSnake 03-09-2008 11:14 AM

Forgot to post my home speed. I'm using Comcast.

Some of your pings are horrible. o_O

I live in southern NJ and get better speeds to Chi than NY or MD... go figure.

Anyone using FIOS?

Shauk 03-11-2008 04:02 PM

interestingly enough I get faster speeds testing servers that aren't in seattle

meh closest test was el paso which is 280 miles or so away, i dont know if that makes a difference or not

Martian 03-11-2008 05:24 PM

I recently changed providers and because I'm on a dry loop and they couldn't test my line, they decided that I'd have to start with the low (1mbps) tier service and upgrade once I was connected. Tomorrow I get my 7mbps connection. For now, I get this:

http://www.speedtest.net/result/245202767.png

I can't wait.

EDIT - For anyone who's keeping track, that's running Firefox in Ubuntu, on ADSL over an ethernet cable.

EDIT #2 - Broadband ftw! Given that my connection is theoretically 7mbps down/ 768kbps up, this would appear to be the physical limit my line is capable of supporting:

My work connect was around 800/600, so I rdp'd home and am still impressed with that bandwidth :)
