Re: 50mb Broadband - Post Your Speed & Vote

I'd figure it'd make a change for the dozen or so crappy VM 50mb speedtests I've already posted in this thread. Everyone already knows my 50mb only does 20 most days.

In contrast, My 50 Mb did 50.5 - 51 Mb for almost 3 years before switching to 100 Mb.....

Wow, that could actually be my worst result ever. And no, it's not a fake or a fluke. There's something seriously broken at the CMTS this evening...

Photobucket or something similar for hosting.

The quickest and easiest way to take a screen capture is to select the window on your desktop (click on it so it is active), Alt+PrintScreenSysRq, open Irfanview and paste it in there. If you don't have the freebie Irfanview...any image editor will probably work. To take a snapshot of your whole desktop, just press PrintScreenSysRq on it's own. Save the image somewhere on your machine and then upload it to photobucket. Copy and paste the image link for forums into your forum post. A forum link will start with [img]Download Failed (1)[/img] remember to preview your post first so you know you did it right
