Time to get out and swing your e-penii around. Broadband Speed Tests! I was testing how my new ISP performed and figured we might as well make a group thing of it since several others on IRC ran tests too - so post away!

Pfft, you guys depress me
I dunno how accurate these tests are with you guys but it's been all over the place with me. This is the best i got from a few tries.
Lighting fast!.....I wasn't happy when we had to switch to adsl a couple of months back but i've more or less adjusted to it now. Tis the best we're gonna get whilst living here so i might as well make the most of it. As long as it can handle xbox live when we get it, i'll be happy. Wish we still had our 20mb cable though.

Yep, it was fairly all over the place with BD too - its accuracy depends on server load. If the server you're trying has dozens of people using it you'll get awful readings, so it might be an idea to try this at a time of day when most people are at work. Results probably still won't be perfect, but they'll be more accurate than at peak evening timesSSX-MS wrote:Pfft, you guys depress me

No one loves you.
They're just pretending to be nice. But they talk bad about you after you leave the room.

I hope this worked, I am not so good with linking stuff
I am not good with uploading and all that, but the link works.
EDIT:
Tried a different local server.

22k? Ouch. That's higher than I was thinking it would be, clearly my connection is still shameful

Typical denial when confronted by a mile long penis. You sir, are no longer envied. Fire is my new hero.BlackDove wrote:Your collective University penises don't count.
