Official Speed Tests Thread

Post some speedtests of your fiber connection.

State your advertised (or estimate if you don't know) bandwidth and where you use it at, your service provider (if avail.), and some computer specs might be cool also -- type/speed of NIC, processor, etc.

You can use any speedtest you want as long as it's accurate (the test file used is already compressed).

Speed Tests

You can also try downloading this file from the OOL FTP:
»ftp://ftp1.optonline.net/pub/test64

Punch 8.192 * the KB/s you got to get your kbps.

Let's keep it clean, please .

1) Speed = 3.3 mbit X 2 = 6.6 mbit
2) Used at home
3) Provider is Comcast
4) Computer specs, 2.2ghz AMD, 1.5gb DDR, 300GB Harddrive, Dual 802.11b wireless nics

This is fast for me... dual cable modems. You l33t fiber optic guys should get a good laugh.

This is my office. It's my win2000 server located at the new york exchange point. it's connected by a 100mbit ethernet port, then whatever godly connections they run.
It's fun to lag other websites. My speeds range from 85mbps to 12mbps in these tests. I test downloaded a service pack from microsoft.com at 3.59mb/sec. my provider is »www.choopa.com/

Im sure most people who gonna post, is going to have there speeds in the MB, so its best to use 8192 instead of 8.192 (yea, same numbers just diff decimal location)

Lets see these fiber results!! (i dont mean upgraded fiber, for catv)

Re: Official Speed Tests Thread

I have Paxio as my ISP and I'm really thrilled to have a fiber connection! After suffering with T1 for so long, having a 100M connection to my home is awesome!

I'm still working through issues such as getting a firewall/router that's fast enough to keep up with my connection. It's also hard to find speedtest servers that can stress my connect.

Here are my numbers:

Re: Official Speed Tests Thread

Those tests are not bad. I can hit 95M download on the Stanford one, but the upload is always bad. The further ones seem to be limited by a pesky OC3 line somewhere in the middle which squelches the thruput to 45M bps.

But my firewall/router is getting tuned up nicely...

Hey, could you hook up a Slingbox and host an Orb (a music and video streaming application for mobile phone) for me? I could really use that kind of upload! *chuckles*

Man, I'd love to have speeds that fast...Sadly though, cable and DSL, let alone FTTH, aren't available here, only 56k, satellite (I refuse to touch it), and EVDO Revision A (not bad, but semi-bad latency).

I would be interesting to see how fast speakeasy (or speedtest.net) would go with 1000/1000.

just to speed things up a bit...back to two now ...my area was starting to slow a little....as far as the connection ..i use 2 modems and midpoint, it splits the file down both pipelines and thats how you get the speed. if i use the ool test that you mentioned it will only show half my speed.

Just from my desk at work.. though I do have 1.5/1.5 fiber at home (Brambleton in Loudoun County, Virginia - first full community with FTTH for voice, data, tv) - I get basically 1.3/1.5 realistically. I believe they're going to offer 3/3 soon, which would be nice.
