This one is from my laptop, in the same room as my previous test (desktop). This one uses Vista, I wonder if that makes a whole lot of difference...

 

Hmmmm ....

Using Denver server


Using Colorado Springs


New Zealand


Through the wireless though ... wonder if that's limiting it

 

Which wireless format are you on TC?
I use G here.

My laptop gets about the same speed as the desktops.
The laptop is the only one wireless at the time, the other PCs are on CAT5.

However I am getting even faster results now, in the 20s for download.

 

It is set for "both g and b"

DSL, though, and don't recall which "speed" I got ... I know it's plenty fast enough for me.

 

lol, we are way far out of town so we only have crappy DSL

 

My upload has doubled.
On a higher plan for three months free from Comcast.
The download was the six megabit package, and I am up to eight now, but as you can see by the tests, it is always higher like around 25 megabit.

I also use this site to check the speeds too.
They are normally a little lower.
It all depends on the way you are routed to the server.

Here is an old test for comparison from October of '06.
My upload back then was low.

The download is equal to my Comcast home service, but the upload at Boeing is off the charts

From the laptop which is on wireless G which is slower than my gaming PC which is on cat 5 to the router.

I get around 29k down (29 megabit on an 8 megabit account, that high number is the Speedboost technology kicking in) on both test with my gaming PC.

This is mine, hardwired from the modem to my computer.

 

Just went from 3mb cable to 1.5mb DSL.. The upload is faster and I can't tell a difference on download... oh yeah, my wallet likes it better, by about $30/mo...
