I don't think I even want to see what mine is...shared dialup...it's gotta be slower than an old folks' home without fiber...

I'm curious, though...does it mean you have a really slow connection when it takes twenty minutes to do the test...?

With my lovely little 31.2 connection, it says I have:

23 kbps down
&
210 kbps up

WHAT THE HELL??

I hate this.

That's just... *goes off fuming*

Of course that is with 8 applications open 2 of which take ALOT of Ram to run...One is FlightTrac and the other is TRAX, SABRE doe snot take so much to run...

RecklessTim

Applications running on your computer doesn't affect your DL or UL speeds.

I'm at work right now, so I'll check it when I get home

Well explain this then, I had all my apps closed yesterday and did it and the DL and UL were at least 3 times higher...

I will help ya out...It does effect your DL and UL if the Apps I am running are ran directly off a server and mainframe (centralized location of data storage)and not the desktop computer which means I am constantly downloading and uploading data thru the Apps...this means that if I have 3 apps open that require a real time connection to this server and mainframe like the ones I use, then it will slow the download and upload speeds.

I'll be getting Verizon FIOS tomorrow, we'll see what kinda d/l and u/l speeds I get on that. :jig

lemon

actually, it does. the sending server needs info that the receiving computer has gotten the info. and that takes time on the cpu. and if he has 8 apps open, they are all vying to get cpu time. so the cpu might not respond in a timely manner, so the speeds are affected. in a sense. the lines' speed arent, they just arent being used as much.

bwhahahahahaha!!!

I think I beat everyone here USING A PERSONAL OR WORK connection, not a school/government connection. :jig

Verizons FIOS rocks.

OUZBnd

haha, how are you gonna classify personal and work in the same category but not school?

TheOriginalJames

Because you would pay for your personal, and your work is usually a faster speed due to businesses getting different packages than your home.

Actually... now that I think about it, Do you pay anything for your internet on campus, Kevin?
