lol... mate if thats the top speed you get on your cable... check out www.speedguide.net and also check out www.getright.com and dl with multiple segments... :)

but truly xsiv.. I am very happy for you... thats a bloody decent dl speed...
 
Download: 320.88 KB/s ... yes, yes, it was :D
 
The other night I kicked my dial up conection in the Guts and got this.
 
*gets a sledgehammer and does some really serious injury to his dialup modem*

I haaaate modems!

**** it. when can they get dsl out here, to my neighbourhood? (anything else, like t1 or t2, is unthinkable.)
 
't1 or t3' even :)

(there isn't such a thing as t2, is there?)
 
Anyone who has a faster connection than me is evil and deserves to go and live in Wales :). Which is nearly everybody
 
i got a 10MB conn , it rocks when u download stuff :D
i live in Sweden btw...
 
Its so unfair!!! lol :( I'm still stuck on 56k. Best I get is 5.6kps
 
maximum speed from a 56kbps modem is just over 7K

56kbps (kilobits second) - 8 bits in a byte =7 kilobytes second

of course this a theoretical speed and would require a prefect connection etc etc
 
I use my school network for normal internet, no idea what it is but it is bloody slow.
The other times I get about 986 bytes per second, using a 9.6Kbps dialup mobile phone.

You all get nothing but pure hatred from me. Well maybe not all of you. But anyone with a DSL or better.

Cant wait til I get to Uni, high speed, no monitoring. Nice.

no monitoring.

very very unlikely, since Unis are having more and more trouble with virus' and hackers (because most are at Uni!). not to mention other illegal content.

You're kidding? Man and I thought mine was slow! I've got 56k too and currently I'm at 48.0kbps, (is that good for dial up? It is ISDN though) have never actually managed to get to 56, 48kbps is the highest.:mad:
 
ISDN is alot different to normal dial up!
 
Well, I didn't hink you guys would believe me when I told you my connection speed so I'll put a screendump with it. This connection really, really, REALLY rocks and it's virtually costless. Check the screenie. :p

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
