Post 'em!
Feels good not to live in a shit country and not being poor
just upgraded from 75/75 to 150/150 for $20 more.
Not bad
>>51652401
Mine is 250/250
and I pay about €54 / $ 57 a month.
>>51652366
speedtest.net is a lying piece of shit though.
I don't get more than 8MByte/s from any high performant server which is only ~64MBit/s
>>51652415
I pay $65/month for mine.
>>51652492
on the other hand, you have more than half of your income left after tax
>>51652401
Download and upload almost the same? I'm surprised you didn't have some shitty upload speed
WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS
>>51652558
it's fiber, pretty sure all of their speed tiers are sequential.
25/25
50/50
75/75
100/100
150/150
300/300
500/500
This is what I was getting when I was paying for 75/75
>>51652567
Hahaha, that is only a problem poor people face.
>poorfags BTFO once again
Mfw mobile upload is much faster than cable at home
>>51652450
speedtest.net usually gets it right within 1-2 mbps for me
maybe not speedtest, but your ISP is a lying piece of shit
>>51652401
Can't seem to get steam to use more than 17.4MB/s (~140mbps)
So just shy of what speedtest is giving me.
Not bad at all.
>>51652586
Where I live It's the maximum i can get regardless what plan i have
>>51652669
it's still a poor people problem
rich people would move or just buy the fiber to be laid to their house
>>51652669
City and Country?
>>51652679
Are you stupid?
>>51652691
European Islamic state (also known as France) and If you're not living in big cities you can't get a correct speed
>>51652669
>these faggots still have flash installed
fucking disgusting
http://speedof.me is where it's at
>>51652714
on the bright side if you're not living in big cities you won't get killed by islamic terrorists when sitting in a cafe
yet
>>51652715
speedof.me is shit, it caps really hard if you don't have ghetto internet.
>>51652715
>http://speedof.me
>66Mbps download
>44Mbps upload
>speedtest.net
>153Mbps download
>160mbps upload
hmmmm, wonder why more people dont use it /s
>>51652578
Yep. They actually cut the lowest tier. Their lowest offering is now 50/50. But they have 100/100, 150/150, 300/300 and 500/500 too.
I work as a FTTP installer for these shits, and we've now started the process in upgrading to 10G-PON, with free speed upgrades likely coming in late 2016 or early 2017.
>>51652790
in the DMV area?
Sweet.
I honestly wouldnt mind paying for 500/500 or 1000/1000 if it wasn't literally 5x what I pay for 150/150.
Hopefully 150/150 gets bumped up to 200-300
>>51652450
>>51652785
>>51652630
>maybe not speedtest, but your ISP is a lying piece of shit
It's trivial for an ISP to allow unthrottled access to speedtest.net servers.
Hey bois
>>51652638
>gaymer
>>51652821
and steam lies too eh? I get 140mbps from them fuck head. That's a lot closer to speedtests 150mbps than speedof.me's 66mbps.
>>51652638
>>51652823
holy shit nigga gimme your power
>>51652843
Okay? It's a 10 year old game i'm downloading just to test my speed to servers besides speedtest.net.
>>51652821
In case of me (>>51652450), it's not really my ISPs fault and not speedtests fault either
I'm paying for 100/40, but it's some new VDSL technique that requires fairly new DSL modems. My modem however is like 5 years old and only got a patch to support 100/40 in its last breath (it was only certified for 50 before)
For some bizarre reason, when I have multiple downloads at once, I can saturate the ~90 Mbps, i.e. I mostly get 5MB/s and 6MB/s at the same time.
It just doesn't work with one single download. And I tried loads of "high-bandwidth" servers (Steam, leaseweb, local ISP, several universities, microsoft download site, dropbox, google driver, etc.)
So my solution would be to buy a new modem, but they're pretty expensive because almost no one supports this stupid VDSL feature and they all cost 200 euroshekels.
not that I don't have the money, I'm just happy with 80Mbps at the moment and I don't like throwing out old, but working tech (that modem is a beast it's running months without having to restart)
>>51652814
I'm a little north. I lived down in D.C. for a while but settled up in Howard County.
All tiers are going to be doubling except 300/300, which is being pushed to 500/500.
10G-Pon upgrades will be huge. Currently the node is split 32 or 64 ways on a 2.4Gbdown/1.2Gb up, but 10G-Pon will upgrade these nodes to 10Gb/2.5Gb.
So a ton less congestion on the nodes and way more speed offerings for end users.
>>51652969

thanks merkuck
>>51653023
Our fios service is only available in a fraction of homes though.
Most amerikeks are stuck with a shit-tier provider like comcast or at&t, and have a 250GB or 300GB cap.
>>51653023
I laughed pretty hard when I read about the 10GB cap. But hey it's not all that bad right? It's only on p2p connections and filehosters :^) Vodafone/Kabel Deutschland can go suck a dick. I hope m-net won't jew me too hard coming August.
>>51653185
I never had cable so I wouldn't know.
Currently have 100Mbps VDSL and I'm probably pretty well off with this compared to most other Germans
Telekom peering sucks major dick though, especially to Level3.
You basically can't watch YouTube after 6PM even though I have 100Mbps because they refuse to peer with Level3 at DE-CIX.
And in the last few weeks I've had problems with cloudfront-cached websites as well, rendering them almost unusable. Though I never found out whether this was a cloudfront or routing/peering error.
>>51653155
you still have waaay more fiber than we have
also your cable providers at least give you the option for anything over 200Mbps.
Here you can almost never get anything over 200Mbps, not even from the ISP that is actually offering FTTH.
The only 2 ISPs I know that offer more than 200Mbps are regional and both serve like 5 houses.
One has a 300/30 plan and the other up to 1000/10 (lol @ the upload)
>>51653263
Yeah man same for me right now. I'm with 1&1 in one house and Telekom in the other and since both are operating on the same lines Youtube is unwatchable as you said after 6PM (only 16/1 here though of which 11/1 reach me).
M-net luckily installed their own infrastracture in our village which is now all fibre but I'm still bound to contract til June/August when I will switch completely to m-net. Haven't heard anything bad from them so far but we'll see.
>>51653263
Don't get me started on level3 and ISPs. We had this issue for an entire year in the U.S. with two of our biggest providers refusing to upgrade their peering points.
It made netflix and youtube unusable from 6-10 every fucking night for an entire year.
This is enough speed for me, just need more upload now.
>>51653362
dont remind me, I still have nightmares... it only got better earlier this year.
>>51653418
that upload with that download is so shit. How do they even defend that shit?
>>51653309
That is depressing.
It's also important to note, the fast options over 100 are generally crazy expensive here.
300/300 is like 175$/mo, comcasts 501/100 is fucking 400$ a month.
>>51653457
Yeah, and those fucks wonder why we pirate stuff
>>51653643
>300/300 is like 175$/mo, comcasts 501/100 is fucking 400$ a month.
yup, the only reason I went to 150/150 was because from 75/75 it was $10/month for 100/100 or $20 more for 150/150. But to go up to 300 was another $90
>>51653683
For 24$, it's fine for me
they can't stop me when I go at 1gb/s

Atleast its unlimited and for £20 I also get thousands of minutes and texts.

there isn't anyone i know of who puts up with worse internet than me.
>frequently disconnecting

>ISP have sent 16+ engineers who simply cannot fix it
After 5 years of the same issue, they offered that i pay for the reconstruction of the roads to install fibre to my house.
Feels good
>>51657472
What do you pay them for?
If you pay for a certain level of service and you aren't getting it, aren't they obligated to try to do their best to get you the advertised speeds?
>>51652366
>>51657544
Fastest package they have to offer.
i'm sure it ranges somewhere from £20-30 a month.
A year ago i complained i was fed up with the service and wanted a refund for poor quality of service.
After 6 months i got £18 pounds back
:/

that's my regular speeds. Today is a good day.
Overpaying like crazy
eh
>>51652821
My ISP doesn't throttle anything, and speedof.me is inaccurate. speedof.me always measures 120 mbps download, while the most I get anywhere else is 113 mbps, sometimes 118 mbps on a good day (>>51658894), which is also what I get in real work applications.
Not to mention that while I see 120 mbps on speedof.me during its tests, I see 118 mbps on my network monitor.
This is good right guys????
>>51660289
maybe in 2005, sure.
fast internet if you can ignore all the hipsters, pyschos and morons that live here
allegedly they upgraded the network a couple weeks ago. it's still shit sometimes.
finland 4g is decent
>>51652401
Muh FiOS nigga
I just did the same thing 2 months ago and went from 50/50 to 150/150 for an extra $30/month.
Delaware here, btw
>>51660609
Mah nigga.
I've been thinking about the jump from 75/75 to 150/150, but they want to charge me some ridiculous one time 150$ fee on top of the extra 20$ a month.
>>51660687
Call them about the fee. I was signing up for the service online and just before checkout, I noticed the installation fee, which didn't mention how much it was. I called them to ask about it and they just dropped it for me.
>>51660687
Yeah if you call them they will usually drop it.

>>51660869
did you miss mine earlier?
>>51652638
~8-9 mins for 10.3GB
The problem at that stage becomes the storage drive generally. If you aren't writing to an SSD or a fast HDD, you will just see your speeds plateau, even if you have more bandwidth.
>>51660711
>>51660830
Cool. Definitely going to try this tomorrow.
RCN has really been ramping up their download speeds lately, I can probably get 155 if I give them a call since they just started that. Any faster and I would need a new DOCSIS 3.0 modem as it only has 4 channels for download :(
>tfw paying about 25$/mo without discounts
i pay close to $80 for this garbage. not only that, the internet disconnects at least 20 times a day for no damn reason. and its the only "good" isp we have around here
>>51661212
>>51661044 here, I have some disconnections too, that's because the node i'm on is broken, maybe you have it too? For my part my ISP is funding me back time fiber is offline, do they refund you it also?
>>51657472
Thats why I use 4g.
Advertised adsl speed in my area is 3.5 mbps, that is capped, 2 second ping, cost bt line rental plus another £10.
I dont think there is another country in the world that has such shit internet in the capital. Maybe fucking zimbabwe.
Moved house to get on the National Bong Network™
Somewhat worth it though, but I can't justify the extra $60AUD/month to go from 100/40 to 100/100.
>>51652638
the difference between megabit and megabyte
That is your max speed retard.
Britfag here,Download is good,Upload is shit tier...
>>51663899
home connection is shit though
just got fiber, this country is shit for internet speeds
Too bad any more than this is too expensive to justify.
Okay so I just switched providers yesterday. I am paying for 200/50 but the service tech couldnt figure out why I am only getting 100/25.
Does anyone have any suggestions? He rechecked all his work and lines and i've plugged directly into the connection so no wifi router and still this is the best I am getting.
He seems to think it might be my computer but its a 2 year old iMac so I cant see how that would be a problem.
>>51663388
did you even read the post?
>Can't seem to get steam to use more than 17.4MB/s (~140mbps)
Where did you think I DIDN'T understand the difference between MB and Mb?
On speed test I get 19MB/s (152Mbps)
On steam I can't get it over 17.4MB/s (140mbps).
Are YOU retarded?
>>51652821
Yet torrent, Steam and Battle.net download speeds correspond to what speedtest reports, while speedof.me is much lower and wildly inaccurate for me as well.
I got 77/16 on speedof.me, I assume they don't have a decent distribution of servers around the world.
>>51665410
Even then, the server it had me testing on was less than 50 miles away and it was giving me less than half speeds that speedtest.net or steam was reporting.
>>51652785
do you have data caps though?
>>51665462
i dont
>>51652401
>>51657561
70 bucks for that is lame when my mobile alone for 20 euros is faster
Best.
>>51665462
Nah, those basically don't exist for home connections in the country where I live. The whole business is way too competitive, anyone trying to pull that shit off would very likely get slaughtered by the competition who are perfectly happy to give you unlimited 1Gbps internet.
>>51665275
I doubt it's because of a 2013 PC, my C2D laptop from 2009 can get 500/500. Probably something fucked on their side, somebody forgot to remove some bandwidth limit for you.
>>51665746
That's what I figured. The service tech called in to double check everything on their side and was told there were no issues.
>>51655808
Holy shit...
>>51665927
is it coaxial, ethernet, or fiber?
When I upgraded from 75/75 to 150/150 it only gave me 115mbps at first. Told the tech installing and he said the ISP had a new policy that any speed over 100Mbps had to be over ethernet. But the router was already hooked up with Coaxial because of the previous installation and I didn't want to have to lay another cable.
So he called up the tech at the local hub and told him to switch it to coaxial even though it's against policy, the tech at the local hub said I wouldnt be getting full speeds that way. but the tech at my house said to do it anyway, so we go back and try a speed test and suddenly I am getting 152/160Mbps.
So it really could be on their end, or maybe you are splitting the signal too many times with a splitter.
>>51665988
Well its fiber from the telephone pole, into a splitter at my house. From the split it goes around the side of my house and comes out of the wall as ethernet.
Theyre having another tech come out tomorrow to look at it. If they can show me on their laptops that their getting 200 down ill be shocked. I just purchased a new wifi router so I am sure thats not the problem either.
>>51666136
what are you getting over wifi?
If you have a decent enough smartphone it should be ablt to get more than 100mbps from wifi.
>>51665719
Holy shit, where do you live?!
paying ~$14
37 bucks a month, am i doing something wrong?
100/100 5GHz AC Wireless 10m from router. Paying $5 a month for this. I love having an ISP that cares about my privacy.
