How fast is your internet connection?
A simple curious question, how fast is your connection?
There are plenty of site were you can test your internet speed, most of them are pretty accurate, some are ridiculous. A good one I found while browsing thought another forum which I personally think it’s the best: http://www.speedtest.bbmax.co.uk/
All you have to do is take the test, and post back your result. If you want, mention your ISP, connection type and price you pay (per month).
Ok I’ll start: Download Speed: 964 kbps (120.5 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 84 kbps (10.5 KB/sec transfer rate)
And with that result, have a NTL 1MB connection and it cost me £17.99 p.m

Test 1
Last Result:
Download Speed: 1602 kbps (200.3 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 412 kbps (51.5 KB/sec transfer rate)
Test 2
Last Result:
Download Speed: 1607 kbps (200.9 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 413 kbps (51.6 KB/sec transfer rate)
That's fairly accurate given the fact that the test server is way the heck in the UK (from Finland, arctic circle) for my 2Mbps/512kbps ADSL connection.
EDIT: When using the speedtest provided by my domestic ISP I get 1792kbps/224KBps. Doesn't test upload...
