Who's got a faster internet connection? - Page 3

1.8Mb Download and 1.2Mb Upload.

So i download at about 200Kbps. I would kill for more reliable internet over a faster connection... disconnecting is a royal pain on games. It disconnects every 15minutes to hour. Then if i did get it reliable, i would love 20Mb Cable Connection.

My claim to fame on dial up as to be back in 1997. Back in the days well before Kazzar and Nabster and BitTorrent I was reponsible for 30% for Dial 1's Non Commercial Bandwidth for 3 months straight.

I had the Sysops of that ISP hunt me down in-person over that achievement.

I have two connections.

One is my home connection 1.5mb dsl, and
my second is a "borrowed" 6mb connection i use for downloads.

I also have an aircard for my laptop, but its on hold right now since i dont really use it.

some of you are getting your panties in a bunch over just a friendly little competition thread

Exactly right.

uhmm...i'm on a nice 768kb/s dl- 128kb/s upload DSL connection

10mbps/1mbps
i can go 15/1.5 but its 100$ a month + tax >.> im already paying 70$ for 10mbps. on top of which rogers throttles the bandwidth so p2p programs are useless.

sucks but the speed's ok as long as i use http servers like rapidshare or megaupload.
