The ping test is good too to see if you have packet loss.
I had major yesterday due to the problems, but everything is great now.

This is weird, I have a low ping to Federal Way and Tacoma since they are close for the test, yet the download and upload are slower than places further away with a higher ping.
The lowest ping is not always the fastest.
Federal Way is the closest to me, but not the fastest.
Vancouver is the furthest one away, and they did better than Federal Way, in fact they were the best.

Federal Way


Tacoma
Whooops, they just got bad.


Seattle


Renton


Vancouver, BC

Wifi at school:

I'm no less than 20 yards from the server room right now. For a tech school it's pretty bad...

Um... yeah. I'd say you win, SLIGHTLY!!!




Sorry xxxtreme22r, but his upload and ping speeds blew yours right out of the water. So the +2 measly Mb/s you have in download speed on him just ain't enough to deserve the crowning glory. Better luck next time!

Beat the snot out of me too. But I'm still pretty impressed with mine. My PC is ancient(built it myself ~7 years ago), Gigabit Ethernet, 2.32 GHz processor(Athlon 64 3000+ overclocked), 1 GB DDR 400 @ 464 MHz, 256MB NVidia 6800 Ultra AGP, and I'm still running XP.




Huh? Faster through Seattle? That's odd.



Try beating the ping on this one though.

I'm happy with it, had DSL before, and it was only 6 Mb/s.

New router again.
My new Cisco was very nice, but I just switched to Comcast Voice (had Vonage for years) I will put up a new thread on that in a bit in this section.

My speed will be even faster after a new wireless router comes.
Will explain that too in the new thread.
