speed test...
 

hey guys, i have been upgraded to the 10mb bband, and would like to test the speed. Can some1 give me a link to download a large file [200mb+] off a reliable server to test it........plzzzzz?

adslguide gives me 2mb, and CF's speed test gives me about 3-4mb:( .......

Re: speed test...
 

I use this place to conduct my speed test. It doesn't download any large files to my knowledge but does give an accurate result.

You could also try downloading a linux ISO which is going to be bigger than 200Mb to see what speeds you get.

Try here

thx for the quick reply... i am getting this for the 10mb

3.44 Mbps
which is around 440.76 KB/s

I guess it is contention :(

when chking on google earth downloads, i was getting 650KB/s!

still havent maxed out my connection :(

PS the linuxiso site wont let me download anything :(

Re: speed test...
 

Bit poor for 10Mbps :(

Try downloading this Linux ISO for a test.

(The PC (Intel x86) install CD)

Ilford, IG6 area @ 19:39 14/04/06 // 10mbit

Downstream 1427 Kbps (178.4 KB/sec) 1541 Kbps (inc. overheads)
Upstream 454 Kbps (56.8 KB/sec) 490 Kbps (inc. overheads)

All I have to say is WOW, I'm getting robbed

Re: speed test...
 

i got 468-469.... damn something's wrong!

Re: speed test...
 

The speed test at dslzoneuk.net that Cerberus posted just keeps looping round asking me to confirm my connection speed...
I select 2MB.... click begin.... wait a minute and it asks me again and again, never tells me my speed!

Re: speed test...
 

This is my 4Mbit, and yes, you definitely have something wrong...

much better than my 200k last night

989.30 Kbps
which is around 123.66 KB/s[img]Download Failed (1)[/img] Your connection is performing spot on (97% efficiency) for a 1 Mbps service

That was following Cerberus link and i am 1mb

1010.40 Kbps

I've had a dodgy connection all day and the moment I decide to go to bed I get this...:p:

PS - thats using the USB, not the ethernet connection as well O_o

Re: speed test...
 

:Yikes:

Most I have ever seen using that site is 92% efficiency.

Re: speed test...
 

1.44 Mbps
which is around 184.5 KB/s
Your connection is performing very poorly (14% efficiency) for a 10240 Kbps service

That bugs me it makes ntl look better as all the low speed tests get trashed. I emailed the dev 3 weeks back no reply.

Re: speed test...
 

How about this then.

Why doesn't the graph go up to 10 Megs though? My result is not shown on the graph as it is too fast.
